Cautions when carrying the digital camera
œ
Do not walk around holding the digital camera by the
handstrap. It may hit other objects and get damaged. When
walking around, hold the digital camera in your hand or
place it in a pocket.
œ
Be careful not to drop the digital camera or subject it to
strong shocks.
œ
Make sure direct sunlight does not hit the digital camera
lens, as that may damage the internal parts. When not
using the digital camera, be sure to always turn it off and
retract the lens.

If the digital camera is not going to be used for a long
period of time
œ
For safety’s sake, remove the battery pack from the

to nearby objects. (Note that when the battery pack is
removed for a long period, the time and date settings will be
cleared.)
