SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Camera notes:
Do not store or use the camera in the following environments:
• In the rain, in humid or dusty environments.
• In a place where the camera can be exposed directly to
sunlight or subject to high temperatures, e.g. Inside a
closed car in summer.
• In a place where the camera is subject to a high magnetic
field, e.g. near motors, transformers or magnets.
Do not place the camera on a wet surface or places where
dripping water or sand may come in contact with the camera.
If the camera will not be used for a long period of time, remove
the battery and the memory card from the camera and store
them in a dry environment.
If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a
warm place, moisture may condense inside the camera. It
is suggested that you wait for a while before turning on the
camera.
The warranty does not cover any type of data loss or corrup-
tion.
Battery notes:
Incorrect use of the battery may cause it to leak, become hot,
ignite or burst. Always observe the following precautions.
• Do not expose the battery to water, and take particular
care to keep the terminals dry.
• Do not heat the Battery or throw it into a fire.
• Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the
battery.
Keep the battery out of reach of babies and small children.
In cold locations, battery performance deteriorates and
battery life is significantly shortened.
Memory card notes:
When using a new memory card, be sure to format the card
with your digital camera before using it.
Do not change or delete the folder names or file names in the
memory card from your PC or, the camera may not be able to
display those edited files on its LCD screen. To edit image data,
copy the image data to the PC’s hard disk first.
The photos taken by this camera are stored in the auto-
generated folder in the SD card. Please do not store photos
that are not taken by this model of camera, as this may make
it impossible to recognize the picture when the camera is in
playback mode.
