irregularity, stop using the camera immediately, remove the batteries and
contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center. Continued use of the
camera may result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not discharge the flash while it is touching your clothing as there is a
risk of discoloring.
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as
there is a risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long
periods of time.

careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin or in your eyes or
in your mouth.

may cause a loss of sight. Flush your eyes with clean water and get
medical attention immediately. Do not rub them.
Caution
• This camera uses two AA alkaline, AA lithium or AA Ni-MH batteries. Do
not use batteries other than those specified here. Using some other type of
battery may cause the camera to function poorly, or the batteries may
rupture or cause a fire.

take the batteries apart. The batteries may rupture or leak if you try to
charge them or take them apart.
