Warning!
Handling FIVA
Should FIVA malfunction, start to emit smoke or a
strange odor, or otherwise behave abnormally,
immediately shut down the power, remove batteries, and
unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet. Continued
use creates the danger of fire and electric shock.
• Contact your original retailer or authorized distributor.
Do not place containers of liquids near FIVA and do not
allow any foreign matter to get into it. Should water or
other foreign matter get into FIVA, immediately shut
down the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet. Continued use creates the danger of
shorting, fire and electric shock.
• Contact your original retailer or authorized distributor.
Never bring in FIVA a bathroom or any other location
where the possibility of splashing or high humidity
exists. Use of FIVA in such an area creates the danger
of electric shock. Be especially carefully when using
FIVA while rain or snow is falling, or in beach areas.
Never try to take FIVA apart or modify it in any way. Highvoltage components inside FIVA create the danger of
fire and electric shock.
• Contact your authorized distributor for all repair and
maintenance.
Should you drop FIVA and damage it, immediately shut
down the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet. Continued use creates the danger of
shorting, fire and electric shock.
• Attempting to repair FIVA yourself is extremely dangerous.
Contact your authorized distributor for all repair and
maintenance.
The liquid inside the LCD is harmful to humans. Never
touch it or allow it to get in your mouth.
• Should liquid from the LCD panel accidentally get into
your mouth immediately wash out your mouth with clean
water. If it gets onto your skin, immediately rinse for at
least 15 minutes with clean tap water. In either case,
consult a physician.

AC100~240V
Warning!
Power Plug and AC Adaptor
Note
AC cord plug and wall outlet illustrated in this User’s Guide shows the
two-pin plug type. It may not be the same shape of AC cord plug used
in your area.
Use only a proper AC electric outlet (100V~240V) when
powering FIVA with the AC adaptor. Use of an outlet with
a different voltage from the rating creates the danger of
malfunction, fire, and electric shock. Overloading an
electric outlet creates the danger of overheating and
fire.
Make sure the power plug and AC adaptor plug are
inserted as far as they will go. Loose plugs create the
danger of electric shock, overheating, and fire.
• Do not use the adaptor if the plug is damaged. Never
connect to a power outlet that is loose.
Use a dry cloth to periodically wipe off any dust built up
on the prongs of the plug. Humidity can cause poor
insulation and create the danger of electric shock and
fire if dust stays on the prongs.
Do not allow the power cord or plug to become damaged,
and never try to modify them in any way. Continued use
of a damaged power cord can cause deterioration of
the insulation, exposure of internal wiring, and shorting,
which creates the danger of electric shock and fire.
• Contact your authorized distributor whenever the power
cord or plug requires repair or maintenance.
Use only the AC adaptor that comes with FIVA or the
one specified by CASIO. Use of another type of AC
adaptor creates the danger of fire.

Supplied
battery pack
Warning!
Do not cover the AC adaptor with a blanket, etc., or do
not place FIVA on the heating rug, near a heater, etc.
Doing so may cause malfunction or deformation of FIVA,
which creates the danger of fire.
Battery Pack
Use only the battery pack that comes with FIVA. When
the battery pack reaches the end of its life, replace it
with a new battery pack as specified by CASIO. Other
types of batteries have different voltage rating and
polarity, which creates the danger of fire and bursting
of the batteries.
Never try to take the battery pack apart or modify it in
any way. Doing so creates the danger of overheating,
fire, and bursting of the battery pack.
Never throw the battery pack into fire or otherwise
expose it to direct flame. Doing so creates the danger
of fire and explosion.
Never allow the positive (+) and negative (–) poles of
the batteries to become connected by metal. Do not store
or transport the battery pack together with metal
necklaces, hairpins, or other metal items. Shorting of
the battery pack poles creates the danger of overheating,
fire, and explosion.
• When transporting or storing the battery pack, wrap it in
plastic to keep the poles away from metal items that might
cause a short.
6
Caution!
Handling FIVA
Do not place FIVA on an unstable or uneven surface.
Doing so can cause FIVA to fall, creating the danger of
malfunction, fire, and electric shock.
Do not leave FIVA in the following areas.
• Areas where FIVA will be subject to large amounts of
humidity or dust, or directly exposed to hot or cold air.
• Areas exposed to direct sunlight, in a close motor vehicle,
or any other area subject to very high temperatures.
The above conditions can cause malfunction or
deformation of FIVA, which creates the danger of fire.
When transporting FIVA, take care to avoid subjecting
it to vibration and impact. This unit contains a hard disk
and other precision components that can be damaged
by rough handling.
The AC adaptor normally becomes warm during use.
Avoid allowing the AC adaptor to rest on your lap or
other part of your body when using it for long period.
Long term with the AC adaptor creates the danger of
burns.
7
Caution!
Power Cord and Peripherals
Do not overly bend the power cord, do not allow it to be
caught between desks or other furniture, and never
place heavy objects on top of the power cord. Doing so
can cause shorting or breaking of the power cord,
creating the danger of fire and electric shock.
Be sure to grasp the plug when unplugging the power
cord from the wall outlet. Pulling on the cord can damage
it, break the wiring, or cause short, creating the danger
of fire and electric shock.
Never touch the plug while your hands are wet. Doing
so creates the danger of electric shock. Pulling on the
cord can damage it, break the wiring, or cause short,
creating the danger of fire and electric shock.
When using headphones, make sure you do not turn up
the volume too high. Doing so can cause hearing
damage.
Avoid use in areas where the brightness around the
display is very different from surrounding lighting, or
where the sunlight is shining directly on the display.
Such conditions can cause eye fatigue.

enter your system via a floppy diskette or network. Taking the following
precautions are normally sufficient to protect against having a virus
invade your system.
• Write protect the master copies of your programs and data files.
• Never open data files or run programs of unknown origin.
• Use a commercially available virus checker to check new programs,
and periodically check your system for virus contamination.
Use the latest version of a commercially available virus checker
to check your system.
An immediate virus check is recommended in the following cases.
• Check your system each time you start up your computer.
• Check any data file or program you received on a floppy diskette or
other external media, over a network, from a BBS or the Internet, via
e-mail, etc. before opening the file or running the program.
