# Cautions
• Before using the wireless LAN function, read “Precautions when using the
wireless LAN function” (P. 137).
• If using the wireless LAN function in a country outside the region where the camera
was purchased, there is a risk that the camera will not conform to the wireless
communication regulations of that country. Olympus will not be held responsible for
any failure to meet such regulations.
• As with any wireless communication, there is always a risk of interception by a third
party.
• The wireless LAN function on the camera cannot be used to connect to a home or
public access point.
 Preparing your smartphone
Install “OI.Share”, the smartphone app, and then start OI.Share on your smartphone.
 Preparing your camera
There are 2 methods for the wireless LAN connection.
Private Connects using a preset password every time. Use this method
when you always connect to the same devices, such as your
smartphone to transfer images.
One-Time Connects using a different password each time. Use this method
for one-time connection, such as when you wish to share selected
images among a number of friends.
Select the wireless LAN connection method in advance. g “Setting up a wireless
LAN connection (Wi-Fi Settings)” (P. 75)
