electric shocks if the camera is taken apart.
If the inside of the camera should become exposed as a result of, for
example, the camera being dropped, please do not under any
circumstances touch such exposed portions, as there is a danger of
receiving an electric shock.
To avoid the risk of it being swallowed by mistake, keep the SD Memory
Card out of the reach of small children. Seek medical attention immediately
if a card is accidentally swallowed.
Wrapping the strap of the camera around your neck is also dangerous.
Please take care that small children do not hang the strap around their
necks.
Use an AC adapter that is of the power and voltage specified for exclusive
use with this product. The use of an AC adapter other than that specified
exclusively for use with this product may cause fire or electric shocks.
If the camera emits smoke or a strange smell, or in the event of any other
irregularity, stop using the camera immediately, remove the battery and
contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center. Continued use of the

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.
Should the LCD be damaged, be careful of glass fragments. Also, be
careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin or in your eyes or
in your mouth.

shock.
If water should happen to get inside the product, consult a PENTAX
Service Center. Continuing to use the product can cause a fire or electrical
shock.
About the Battery Charger and the AC Adapter
3
If lightning should be present during use of the battery charger or AC
adapter, unplug the power cord and discontinue use. Continuing to use the
product can cause damage to the equipment, fire or electrical shock.
Wipe off the plug of the power cord if it should become covered with dust.
This can cause a fire.
Caution
Do not place heavy objects on the AC plug cord, allow heavy objects to
drop onto it or allow the AC plug cord to become damaged due to
excessive bending. If the AC plug cord becomes damaged, consult a
PENTAX Service Center.
Do not short or touch the output terminals of the product while it is still
plugged in.
Do not plug in the AC plug cord with wet hands. This can cause an
electrical shock.
Do not subject the product to strong impacts or allow it to drop onto a hard
surface. This can cause a malfunction.
Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other than rechargeable
lithium-ion battery D-LI8. This can cause overheating or malfunctions.
Take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in the package
with you when traveling. This will be useful if you experience problems
abroad.
When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still
working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at
a wedding or during traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be
guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer,
etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media
(SD Memory Card), etc.
The lens on this camera is not interchangeable. The lens is not removable.
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol or
benzene.
Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular
care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot
inside.
Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be
avoided. Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent
the camera from becoming moldy during storage.
Care to be Taken During Handling
4
Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks
or pressure as this may cause damage, malfunction, or a loss in waterproof
performance. Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the
camera is subjected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, ship, etc. If the
camera is subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure, take
your camera to your nearest PENTAX Service Center and have it checked.
The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
The liquid crystal display will become black at a high temperature but will
return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low
temperatures. This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not
a fault.
Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain
high performance.
If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation
may form on the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore put the
camera in a bag or plastic bag, and take the camera out when the
difference in temperature has subsided.
Refer to “Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card” (p.30) regarding
the SD Memory Card.
Please note that formatting an SD memory card or built-in memory will
delete all data; however it may still be possible to recover that data using
off-the-shelf data recovery software. Please manage your camera’s
memory at your own risk.
Please do not press forcefully on the LCD monitor. This could cause
breakage or malfunction.
Be careful not to sit down with the camera in your back pocket as this may
damage the exterior of the camera or the LCD monitor.
When using a tripod with the camera, be careful not to overtighten
the screw in the tripod socket on the camera.
The AC plug cord supplied with the camera is for exclusive use with the
battery charger D-BC8. Do not use it with any other equipment.
5
This camera has been proven to comply with JIS Class 8 waterproof
performance and Class 5 dustproof performance (IP58).
To enhance the waterproof performance of the camera, the front of the lens
is protected by glass. As any dirt or water on the glass will affect the quality
of pictures taken, the glass should be kept clean at all times.
Leaving the camera on the sand at the beach may cause the camera to
exceed its operating temperature, or cause the speaker or microphone to
become blocked with sand.
The camera will sink if dropped in water, so be sure to attach the strap and
slip the strap over your wrist when using the camera in or near water.
Be sure to check that the battery/card cover is securely locked before using
the camera in an environment where it is likely to get wet or dirty, such as
underwater or at the beach. Water, sand or dirt inside the camera may
cause failure of the camera. Wipe off any water or dirt with a dry cloth as
soon as possible after using the camera.
Avoid opening the battery/card cover at the beach or by the sea. Wait until
the camera is completely dry before changing the battery or the SD
Memory Card. Avoid changing the battery or card where the camera is
likely to get wet or dirty, and make sure that your hands are dry.
If the camera is very dirty or after it has been used in the sea, make sure
that it is turned off and the battery/card cover is firmly closed before rinsing
it under running tap water or leaving it in a bowl of clean water for a short
time (2 or 3 minutes).
Avoid cleaning with agents such as soap water, mild detergents, and
alcohol as this may compromise the waterproof performance of the
camera.
Wipe off any dirt or sand on the waterproof packing or the packing contact
surface. The camera’s waterproof function may be compromised by loose
packing, or cracks or dents in the packing or packing contact surface. If
there is any such damage, contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.
To maintain the waterproof performance of the camera, you are
recommended to change the waterproof packing once a year. Contact your
nearest PENTAX Service Center regarding changing the packing. (A
charge will be made.)
Avoid subjecting the camera to substantial vibrations, shocks, or pressure
as this may cause a loss in waterproof performance. If the camera is
subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure, take your camera
to your nearest PENTAX Service Center and have it checked.
Avoid getting sunscreen or sun oil on the camera as it may cause
discoloration of the surface. If any oil gets on the camera, wash it off
immediately with warm water.
The waterproof function does not apply to the camera’s accessories.

Camera Features
In addition to basic picture-taking, the Optio W20 has a variety of shooting
modes to suit different situations. This section describes how to make the
most of the key features of your camera. Together with the explanations
of camera operations, it will enable you to enjoy your camera to the full.
In addition to being certified for
water resistance for thirty
minutes at a depth of 1.5 meters
(5 ft.), the Optio W20 is also
certified as dustproof (JIS Class
5) so that you can use the
camera in locations where it will
be exposed to dust and dirt such
as the beach, in a kitchen, a
workshop, etc. Because it utilizes
a lock mechanism for the battery/
card cover, when the cover is
firmly locked, you can use it underwater safe in the knowledge that the
batteries and card are also secure. (p.72)
The Optio W20 has an anti-shake function to prevent camera shake
during movie recording. (p.112) You can also take pictures while
recording a movie. (p.107)
Forget Your Worries About Water Getting in the Camera!
Advanced Movie Recording and Picture Taking
Functions
For taking pictures while snorkeling.
For taking pictures at the pool or while playing in a river or lake.
For taking pictures while enjoying various outdoor
activities without worrying about your camera getting a
bit dirty. A quick wipe with a wet cloth is all it needs!
For recording the action of sporting events as a movie
while capturing the winning shot in a picture.
13
With the Optio W20, not only can you add a voice memo to a still picture,
but by switching to Synchro Sound Record mode, the surrounding
sounds are automatically captured until you press the shutter release
button to take the picture. A total of 20 seconds of sound, 10 seconds
before and 10 seconds after the shutter release button is pressed, are
saved. (p.74)
With the Optio W20, you can add a fun
frame when taking a picture of a child
or your pet, for example. (p.67) You
can also add frames to pictures you
have taken. Adjust the position of the
subject in the picture or reduce or
enlarge the picture size to match the
frame shape and size. Now you no
longer have to worry about the subject
not being aligned in the frame. (p.140)
Record Sound Before and After Taking Pictures!
Add Fun Frames to Your Pictures!
For recording yourself saying “Say cheese!” or “Look at
the camera”
For including the cheers of the crowd at exciting
moments of a sporting event.
For decorating your pictures
with a frame.

The user-friendly design of the Optio W20 enables easy operation with
only a few buttons. Simply by choosing the appropriate icon, you can
select Shooting mode (p.53) and choose the optimal settings for the
situation, or Playback mode (p.114, p.132) and enjoy the various
playback and editing functions. A guide on the LCD monitor lets you
check the functions available in each mode and how to use them. (p.53,
p.60)
With the Optio W20, you can display recorded images and sound files by
date in calendar format. (p.116) This lets you quickly find the image or
sound file you want to play back.
Easy-to-Navigate Capture and Playback
Functions!
Display Images and Sound Files in Calendar
Format!
A shooting mode guide is displayed in the Capture Mode
Palette and a playback mode guide in the Playback Mode
Palette for a few seconds after each mode is selected.

Use the Green Mode to take pictures easily using
standard settings. (p.64)
15
With its compact, stylish design, the
Optio W20 is just right to slip into a
pocket of your bag or hang round
your neck, so you always have it
with you, like your cell phone. It has
a useful clock function, “Clock
Mode” for telling the time too.
(p.179)
The Optio W20 lets you play back
and edit images without having to
connect the camera to your
computer and transfer the images
first. The camera is all you need
to take and edit still pictures and
movies. (p.132) And no more
worries about accidentally
deleting images, because now,
with the Optio W20, you can
recover them again. (p.129)
Perfect Size for Carrying Around With You!
Enjoy Playback and Editing Functions Without a
Computer!
The wide range of editing functions includes resizing
(p.132), trimming (p.134), changing the color (p.137) and
adjusting the brightness. (p.138)
If your subject’s eyes appear red in the picture, you can correct
them while the image is displayed in Playback mode. (p.139)
You can divide a movie into two, stitch two movies together or
select a frame from a movie to save as a still picture. (p.142)
