• When carrying the camera, be careful that it does not strike other objects. Particular
care is required to protect the lens and monitor.
• The flash may overheat if fired many times in succession. Do not use the flash succes-
sively more than necessary.
• Do not use the flash in close contact with your body or other objects. Failure to ob-
serve this precaution could result in burns or fire.
• Using the flash unit in close proximity to your subject’s eyes could cause temporary
visual impairment. Particular care should be observed when photographing infants.
• Do not direct the flash at the operator of a motor vehicle. Failure to observe this pre-
caution could cause accidents.
• Battery may become hot with extended use. Wait for the battery to cool before re-
moving it from the camera.
• The monitor may be difficult to read in direct sunlight.
• You may notice that monitor varies in brightness or contains pixels that do not light
or that are always lit. This is common to all LCD monitors and does not indicate a
malfunction.
• Do not apply force to the monitor.
• Abrupt changes in temperature may cause condensation, resulting in visible con-
densation inside the lens or camera malfunction. This can be avoided by placing the
camera in a plastic bag to slow the temperature change, and removing it only after
the air in the bag has reached the same temperature of its surroundings. When con-
densation occurs, remove the battery and memory card from the camera, and wait
until water droplets disappear.
• To prevent damage to the product, do not insert objects into the holes in the micro-
phone and speaker coverings.
• Take a test shot to ensure that the camera is functioning properly before using it on
important occasions such as travel or weddings. We recommend that you keep this
manual and spare batteries at hand.
