Safety Precautions
• Do not apply excessive pressure to the liquid crystal display. This may cause smears, prevent photos from
being played back properly, or damage the liquid crystal display. Should the liquid crystal display break,
avoid getting any of the liquid crystal in your mouth. If it contacts your skin or clothing, wash it off
immediately with soap and water.
• Lines, like strips of light, may appear at the top or bottom of the liquid crystal display. This is not a
malfunction.
• When photographing an oblique subject, the subject may appear on the screen with ragged edges. This is not
a malfunction. The ragged edges will disappear when the photo is played back.
• In general, the lower the temperature, the longer it takes the liquid crystal display to turn on. Photos may also
appear temporarily discolored. Keep this product warm when using in a cold region. Performance of the
liquid crystal display may deteriorate in low temperatures, but will be restored when this product is returned
to normal temperatures.
• The latest high precision technology has gone into the making of the liquid crystal display
of this product, but there are some pixels which are permanently lit or which do not light at
all. These pixels do not affect the recorded photo. Also, depending on the angle at which
the screen is viewed, the colors and brightness may appear uneven. This is due to the
structure of the liquid crystal display and is not a malfunction.

• Do not expose the cradle to water. Using it when wet or in a humid area (such as a bathroom) may
cause fire, overheating or electric shock.
• Never modify or disassemble the cradle. This may cause fire, overheating, electric shock or injury.
Warning
