SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Camera notes:
Do not store or use the camera in the following types of
locations:
• In a place where the camera can be exposed directly to
the sunlight or subject to high temperature, e.g. Inside a
closed car in summer.
• In a place where the camera is subject to a high magnetic
field, e.g. near motors, transformers or magnets.
If the camera will not be used for a long period of time, we
suggest you remove the battery and the memory card.
If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a
warm place, moisture may condense inside the camera. We
suggest you wait for a while before turing on the camera.
No compensation for loss of recordings. Loss of recordings
cannot be compensated for if a malfunction of your camera
or recording media, etc, makes the playback of recordings not
possible.
To maintain the camera's waterproof feature, ensure that no
foreign material interfere with the proper closing of the bat-
tery door.
Battery notes:
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak, become
hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions given
below.
• Do not expose the batteries to water, and take particular
care to keep the terminals dry.
• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
• Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the
batteries.
• Use GE charger in the package to charge the lithium
battery only (for E and J series).
Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.
In cold locations, battery performance deteriorates and the
time for which they can be used shortens markedly.
Memory card notes:
When using a new memory card, or a memory card has been
initialized by a PC, be sure to format the card with your digital
camera before using it.
To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC's hard disk
and then format memory card before any firmware upgrade.
Do not change or delete the directory names, or file names in
the memory card from your PC, as this may make it impossible
to use the card in your camera.
