Safety precautions

● Although battery charging is guaranteed when the air temperature is 0°C -

40°C/32°F - 104°F, for best results, we recommend an air temperature between
10°C - 30° C/50°F - 86°F.

● If the red charge indicator blinks, the battery may be broken or not inserted

correctly.

● The battery may become warm while charging, but this is not a malfunction.
● There may be static on other electronic equipment (such as a radio or

television) if the battery charger is plugged in to the same outlet. If this occurs,
plug the battery charger into a different outlet.

● Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become fuzzy,

resulting in a playback mode failure or damage to the monitor. If the monitor is
damaged, be careful not to get any of the liquid crystals from the monitor in your
mouth. If liquid crystals get on your limbs or clothes, wash them off.

● A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a

malfunction.

● When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear

zigzagged on the monitor. This is not a malfunction; It will be less noticeable in
playback mode.

● In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD monitor may take a long time to

turn on or its color may change temporarily. When using the camera in
extremely cold places, it is a good idea to occasionally place it in a warm place.
A LCD monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will
recover in normal temperatures.

The LCD monitor is made with high-precision technology. However, black

spots or bright spots of light may appear on the LCD monitor. These spots
may not be uniform in color and brightness depending on their
characteristics or the angle at which you are viewing the monitor. This is
not a malfunction.

● Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase extra

batteries. Recommended batteries may be difficult to obtain while traveling.

Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources.When you throw

away dead batteries, be sure to cover their terminals and always observe
local laws and regulations.
