GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
1
Never get the camera wet or subject it
to shock and vibration.
1
Always use the camera strap.
1
Never hold, twist, or pull on the
lens. It moves and focuses completely
electronically and cannot be focused
like a traditional camera lens. It is
integrated completely with the camera
and cannot be removed.
1
Never force anything. If the battery,
a memory card, a compartment latch
or the lens doesn’t open, do not force
it. Read the instructions or contact
Media Loan. Handle the memory
cards carefully and return them to the
camera immediately after using them
in a card reader.
1
Do not subject the camera to heat,
magnetism, shock, or moisture.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
This camera uses only BLM-1 lithium ion
batteries. The battery you receive should be fully
charged but when this runs out of power plug the
power cord into the charger and plug the other
end of the power cord into an electrical outlet.
Place the battery on the charger making sure that
it is correctly oriented.
The light on the charger tells you the status of the
charging process. Red means the battery is still
charging. Blinking red means that the charging
failed because the battery was not connected
properly. Green means that the charging is
complete.
LOADING & REMOVING THE BATTERY
Make sure the camera
is turned off whenever
inserting or removing the
battery.
To load, slide the battery
compartment lock to the
open position and flip the
lid open. Then insert the
battery, making sure that
it is correctly oriented with
the arrow end of the battery
entering first. The battery
lock will secure the battery
when correctly loaded.
To remove the battery press the lock tab and pull
out.
USING THE MEMORY CARDS
The camera stores pictures on a Compact Flash
card which comes with the camera and will
already be loaded in the card slot.
Tip: If you need to remove or insert the cards
make sure the camera is turned off first.
