CAUTION
• Do not remove batteries immediately after using the camera. Batteries may become hot during
prolonged use.
• Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period.
• If NiMH batteries are not charged within the specified time, stop charging them and do not use them.
• Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken.
• If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or becomes abnormal in any other way during
operation, stop using the camera.
• If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the clothing and flush the affected area with
clean, running cold water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical attention
immediately.
• Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous vibration.
• To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product, never leave the camera in the
places listed below, no matter if in use or storage:
• Places where temperatures and/or humidity are high or go through extreme changes. Direct
sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near other heat sources (stove, radiator, etc.) or humidifiers.
• In sandy or dusty environments.
• Near flammable items or explosives.
• In wet places, such as bathrooms or in the rain. When using products with weatherproof
designs, read their manuals as well.

• When mounted on a tripod, adjust the position of the camera with the tripod head. Do not twist the
camera.

damage, color failure, ghosting on the CCD, or may possibly cause fires.
• Do not push or pull severely on the lens.
• Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the batteries. Select a cool, dry location for
storage to prevent condensation or mold from forming inside the camera. After storage, test the
camera by turning it on and pressing the shutter button to make sure that it is operating normally.
• Always observe the operating environment restrictions described in the camera’s manual.
