Safety Precautions
● Location
Do not leave the stand and camera in any
of the following locations. Such locations
create the risk of fire and electric shock.
● Unfolding and folding the stand arm
Take care to avoid pinching your
fingers when unfolding or folding the
arm of the stand.
● Monitor screen
● Backing up important data
● Protecting camera memory contents
Make sure you carefully follow the
instructions in the User’s Guide when
replacing the camera battery.
Incorrectly replacing the battery can
cause data to become corrupted or
lost.
● Using the flash
● Traveling
● Moving the stand and camera
When moving the stand and camera, never
pick them up by the arm or by the camera.
Doing so puts a very large load on the arm
or camera, which can cause disconnection of
internal wiring and create the risk of fire and
electric shock.
• Areas subjected to large
amounts of moisture or
dust
• In a food preparation
area or any other area
exposed to oil smoke
• Near a heater, on a
heated carpet, in an
area exposed to direct
sunlight, in a vehicle
parked in direct sunlight,
or any other location
where it is very hot
• Never press the
camera’s monitor screen
or subject it to strong
impact. Doing so can
crack the glass of the
LCD panel.
• Should the glass of the
LCD panel crack, never
touch the liquid that
leaks from inside the
panel. Touching the
liquid creates the risk of
skin inflammation.
• Should liquid leaking
from the LCD panel
accidentally get in your
mouth, immediately rinse
your mouth with water
and then contact your
physician.
• Should liquid leaking
from the LCD panel get
into your eye or onto
your skin, immediately
flush the area with
clean water for at least
15 minutes, and then
contact your physician.
Always back up important
data in camera memory
to a computer hard disk.
Failure to do so creates
the risk of data loss due
to camera malfunction,
maintenance, etc.
Do not position the
camera too close to a
person’s face when firing
the flash. Sudden
brightness can cause eye
damage and other
problems.
When traveling with the
camera, never use it
inside of an aircraft or
anywhere else where the
use of such devices is
not allowed. Improper use
of the camera creates
the risk of accident.
