SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Camera notes:
Do not store or use the camera in the following types of
locations:
In the rain, very humid and dusty places.
In a place where the camera can be exposed directly to
the sunlight or subject to high temperature, e.g. Inside a
closed car in summer.
In a place where the camera is subject to a high magnetic
field, e.g. near motors, transformers or magnets.
Do not place the camera on a wet surface or places where
dr
ipping water or sand may come in contact with the
camera, which may cause irrepairable faults.
If the camera will not be used for a long period of time, we
suggest you remove the battery and the memory card from
the camera and keep them
in dry environment.
If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a
warm place, mo
isture may condense inside the camera. We
suggest you wait for a while before turing on the camera.
If water has gotten inside the camera, turn off the camera
and remove the battery and memory card. Allow to air-dry
for at least 24 hours before using the camera again.
If camera overheats, while in use or charging, disconnect
charger and carefully remove batteries
Battery notes:
Incorrect use of the batteries may cause them to leak, become
hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions given below.
Do not expose the batteries to water, and take
particular care to keep the terminals dry.
Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the
batteries.
Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.
In cold locations, battery performance deteriorates and the
time for which they can be used shortens markedly.
Memory card notes:
When using a new memory card, or a memory card that
has been used or initialized by a P.C. or a different model
camera, be sure to format the card with your digital camera
before using it. To edit image data, copy the image data to
the PC’s hard d
isk first.
Do not change or delete the folder names or file names
i
n the memory card from your PC, as this may cause a
memory card read error to occur when viewing photos on
the memory card from the playback mode in your camera.
The photos taken by this camera are stored in the auto-
generated folder in the SD card. Please do not store photos
that are not taken by this model of camera, as this may cause
a read error to occur when the camera is in playback mode.
Please do not expose the camera to harsh environments
such as moisture or extreme temperatures, which may
shorten the life of your camera or damage the batteries.
Do not remove memory card without turning the digital
camera off to avo
id possible damage of your memory card.
Do not switch off the digital camera when a writing process is
occurring to avoid incomplete data writing and damaged pictures.
Align the memory card correctly before inserting it into the
camera's SD card slot. Do not force the memory card into
the cameras' SD card slot.

immediate action indicated below:
If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin, wipe
the area with a cloth and then wash thoroughly with
soap and running water.
If liquid crystal gets into your eye, flush the affected
eye with clean water for at least 15 minutes and then
seek medical assistance.
If the liquid crystal display or the liquid inside it are
swallowed, flush your mouth thoroughly with water.

About the LCD Screen
When you turn the camera on, various icons are shown on
the LCD screen to indicate the current camera settings and

Screen display” on page 30.
LCD Screen notes:
Extremely high-precision technology has been used to
manufacture the LCD screen so that most of the pixels are
operational for use. However, there may be some minute
points (black, white, red, blue or green) that constantly
appear on the LCD screen. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and the recording is not affected
in any way.
Avoid exposing the LCD screen to water; please
remove any mo
isture on the LCD screen with a soft,
dry cleaning cloth.
