USING YOUR CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY

explosive gas, or any other flammable material in the
air. Doing so may cause a fire or an explosion.

camera:

and suffocate.
h
They may swallow the battery pack or other small
parts. In such a case, consult a physician
immediately.

Cautions when carrying the camera
i
Do not walk around with the camera suspended from
your neck. It may hit other objects and get damaged.
When walking around, hold the camera in your hand
or place it in a pocket.
i
Be careful not to drop the camera or subject it to
strong shocks.
i
Make sure direct sunlight does not hit the camera
lens, as that may damage the internal parts. When not
using the camera, be sure to always turn it off and
close the lens cover.
k
If the camera is not going to be used for a long
period of time
i
For safety’s sake, remove the battery pack from the
camera. This will prevent any possible excess heat or
leakage of battery fluid that may result in injuries or
damage to nearby objects. (Note that when the
battery pack is removed for a long period, the time and
date settings will be cleared.)
