disassemble the batteries. The batteries could explode or catch fire.

• Of the batteries that can be used in this camera (AA Ni-MH batteries, AA

lithium batteries, AA alkaline batteries and CR-V3), only the Ni-MH batteries
can be recharged. Recharging other batteries can cause a fire or explosion.

• Remove the batteries from the camera immediately if they become hot or

begin to smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.

• Some portions of the camera heat up during use. There is the risk of low

temperature burns when holding such portions for long periods.

• Do not place your finger over or cover the flash with clothing when

discharging the flash. Fingers or clothing may be burned.

• Only use specified batteries with this camera. Use of other batteries can

cause a fire or explosion.

• Replace all the batteries at the same time. Do not mix battery brands, type

or an old battery with a new one. It may cause explosion or a fire.

• The batteries should be inserted correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –)

marked on the batteries and the camera. Not inserting batteries correctly
may cause explosion or a fire.

• Do not disassemble the batteries. Of the batteries that can be used in this

camera, only the Ni-MH batteries can be recharged. Disassembling the
batteries or attempting to charge non-rechargeable batteries could result in
explosion or leakage.

• When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network that is included in the

package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.

• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still

working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a
wedding or during traveling). Pictures cannot be guaranteed if recording,
playback or transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to
a malfunction of your camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc.

• Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol

benzene.
