Batteries could explode, for instance. All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a
conductive material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The material may
complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any batteries, particularly

batteries in fire as they may explode.
•
To prevent electric shock, do not attempt to disassemble or repair your camera by yourself.

Taking care of your camera
•
Always keep the camera in the accompanying leather case or pouch for better protection against splashes,
dust, and collision.

•
If your camera becomes wet, wipe it with a dry cloth as soon as possible.

Salt or seawater may cause severe camera damage.
•
Do not drop, knock, or shake the camera. A rude behavior of using the camera may damage the internal
electronic circuit board, deform the lens shape, or make the lens unretractable.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the camera.
•
Finger grease may be left on the camera lens and will result in unclear images or videos. To avoid this
problem, be sure to clean the camera lens before taking pictures or recording videos. You should also
clean the camera lens on a regular basis.

If a foreign substance or water gets in your camera, please turn the power off immediately and disconnect
the batteries. Next, remove the foreign substance or water and send it to the maintenance center.

Whenever there is data in the internal memory or the external memory card, you should make a backup
copy to a computer or disc. So, you can have a backup solution if data loss occurs.
•
If the lens cannot retract into the camera, please replace the batteries first (usually this is because of
drained batteries). Then the lens should retract automatically. If the lens still cannot retract, please
contact your dealer.

Under no circumstances should you push the lens back manually as this may damage the camera.
•
All original accessories are designed only for use with this camera model you purchased. Do not use these
