During operation of the camera, if you notice any unusual odors,
noise, or smoke around the camera, immediately switch the camera
off, disconnect the optional AC adapter (if it is connected), and allow
the camera to sit idle for a few minutes to allow it time to cool. Take
the camera outdoors, away from flammable objects, and carefully
remove the batteries to avoid burning your hands. Contact the
nearest Olympus service center immediately.

Never attempt to disassemble the camera. The internal circuits
contain high voltage points which could cause serious burns or
electrical shock.

direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme variation in temperature, or
strong shocks and constant vibration. Protect the camera at all times
from dust and sand.
• Never store the camera near any type of appliance or equipment
which generates high temperatures, low temperatures, high or low
humidity, or a strong magnetic field. Never use the camera in a factory
or laboratory where flammable gases are present.
• Never shake the camera or subject it to shock or strong vibration.
• To avoid damaging its precision lens, never leave the camera pointing

from forming inside the camera. After storage, test the camera by
pressing the shutter release button to make sure that it is operating
normally.

position the camera; do not twist the camera.
