Safety precautions
Protecting the Power Cord — The power supply cord should be placed so it will not be walked
on. Never put a heavy object on the power cord or wrap it around the leg of a table or chair.
Keep the area around the power cord connection points, at the power outlet, and at the product
connection, free of all AC adapter or accessory power cords.
Lightning — If a lightning storm occurs while using a specified AC adapter, remove it from the wall
outlet immediately. To avoid damage from unexpected power surges, always unplug the AC
adapter from the power outlet and disconnect it from the camera when the camera is not in use.
Overloading — Never overload wall outlets, extension cords, power strips, or other power
connection points with too many plugs.
Foreign Objects, Liquid Spillage — To avoid personal injury caused by fire or electrical shock
from contact with internal high voltage points, never insert a metal object into the product. Avoid
using the product where there is a danger of spillage.
Heat — Never use or store this product near any heat source such as a radiator, heat register,
stove, or any type of equipment or appliance that generates heat, including stereo amplifiers.
Servicing — Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Attempting to remove the covers or
disassemble the product, could expose you to dangerous high voltage points.

specified AC adapter, unplug it from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel:
a) Liquid has been spilled onto the product or some other object has fallen into the product.

other hazards.
Safety Check — Upon completion of servicing or repairs, ask the service technician to perform
safety checks to determine that the product is in good working order.
