TO AVOID SHOCK HAZARD

 ... Your camera 

and power supply should not be exposed to 
rain or moisture. Do not connect the power 
supply or operate your camera if it gets wet. 
Your camera has been designed for outdoor 
use, however it is not designed to sustain 
direct exposure to water, rain, sleet, snow, 
sand, dust, or a direct splashing from a pool or 
even a cup of coffee. This action could 
permanently damage the internal parts of your 
camera. Do not attempt to disassemble this 
unit. There are no user serviceable parts 
inside. Unplug your camera from the power 
supply before cleaning.

AS WITH ANY SMALL OBJECT, SD CARDS 
CAN BE SWALLOWED BY YOUNG 
CHILDREN. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO 
HANDLE THE SD CARD.

DO NOT AIM YOUR CAMERA AT THE SUN 
OR OTHER BRIGHT OBJECTS

DO NOT LEAVE THE CAMERA WITH THE 
EVF AIMED DIRECTLY AT THE SUN AS 
THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE 
INTERNAL PARTS OF THE EVF

DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR CAMERA TO 
EXTENDED HIGH TEMPERATURE

 ... Such 

as, in direct sunlight, inside a closed car, next 
to a heater, etc... This action could 
permanently damage the internal parts of your 
camera.

AVOID SUDDEN CHANGES IN 
TEMPERATURE

 ... If the unit is suddenly 

moved from a cold place to a warm place, 
moisture may form on the SD card and inside 
the unit.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CAMERA OR THE 
POWER SUPPLY TURNED ON WHEN NOT 
IN USE.

STORAGE OF YOUR CAMERA

 ... Store and 

handle your camera in a manner that will not 
subject it to unnecessary movement (avoid 
shaking and striking). Your camera contains a 
sensitive pick-up device which could be 
damaged by improper handling or storage.

CARE

TO CLEAN YOUR CAMERA

 ... Do not use 

strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning 
your camera body.

TO PROTECT THE LENS

 ... Do not touch the 

surface of the lens with your hand. Use a 
commercial camera lens solution and lens 
paper when cleaning the lens. Improper 
cleaning can scratch the lens coating.

TO PROTECT THE FINISH OF YOUR 
CAMERA

 ... Before handling your camera, 

make sure your hands and face are free from 
any chemical products, such as suntan lotion, 
as it may damage the finish.
