When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or
on a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space
on all sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/
16") or more on both sides, on top and at the
rear).
Do not block the ventilation holes.
(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a
newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be
able to get out.)
No naked flame sources, such as lighted
candles, should be placed on the apparatus.
When discarding batteries, environmental
problems must be considered and the local rules
or laws governing the disposal of these batteries
must be followed strictly.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping
or splashing.
Do not use this equipment in a bathroom or
places with water.
Also do not place any containers filled with water
or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines,
flower vases, potted plants, cups etc.) on top of
this unit.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this
equipment, fire or electric shock may be
caused.)
Do not point the lens directly into the sun. This
can cause eye injuries, as well as lead to the
malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also
a risk of fire or electric shock.
CAUTION!
The following notes concern possible physical
damage to the camera and to the user.
Carrying or holding the camera by the LCD
monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a
malfunction.
Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel
surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious
damage to the camera.
CAUTION!
Connecting cables (Audio/Video, S-Video, etc.)
to the camera and leaving it on top of the TV is
not recommended, as tripping on the cables will
cause the camera to fall, resulting in damage.
