•
Do not allow dirt or metal objects (such as pins or keys) to contact the charger
terminals or plug.
This could result in fire, electrical shock or other damage.
•
When using the separately sold optional lenses, be sure to attach them firmly.
If the lens becomes loose and falls off, it may crack, and the shards of glass may lead
to cuts.

The slideshow transition effects may cause discomfort when viewed for
prolonged periods.
•
When using the flash, be careful not to cover it with your fingers or clothing.
This could result in burns or damage to the flash.
Caution
•
Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (the sun, etc.).
Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the image sensor.
•
When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to
allow dust or sand to enter the camera.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
•
In regular use, small amounts of smoke may be emitted from the flash.
This is due to the high intensity of the flash burning dust and foreign materials stuck to
the front of the unit. Please use a cotton swab to remove dirt, dust or other foreign
matter from the flash to prevent heat build-up and damage to the unit.
•
Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet after recharging is complete,
or when you are not using it.
•
Do not place anything, such as cloth on top of the battery charger while it is
charging.
Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and
distort, resulting in fire.
•
Remove and store the battery when you are not using the camera.
If the battery is left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage may occur.
•
Before you discard the battery, cover the terminals with tape or other
insulators.
Contacting other metal materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions.
•
Do not place the battery near pets.
Pets biting the battery could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire
or injuries.
•
When carrying the camera in a bag, close the LCD monitor to face inward to
ensure that hard objects to not come into contact with the screen.
