PRECAUTIONS
General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever using the QV-3000EX/Ir.
All references in this manual to “this camera” and “the camera” refer to the CASIO QV-3000EX/Ir Digital Camera.
•Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so creates the danger of serious accident.
•Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the risk of electrical shock when exposed. Always leave maintenance and repair work up to authorized CASIO service providers.
•Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating a motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the driver’s vision and create the danger of accident.
•Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subject’s eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage if it is fired too close to the eyes, especially with young children. When using the flash, the camera should be at least one meter from the eyes of the subject.
•Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and never let it get wet. Moisture creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
•Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO service provider. Using the camera under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
•Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the camera, immediately turn power off and unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet. Using the camera under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. After making sure there is no more smoke coming from the camera, take it to your nearest CASIO service provider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
•At least once a year, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet and clean the area around the prongs of the plug. Dust build up around the prongs can create the danger of fire.
•If the camera’s case should ever become cracked due to dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your nearest CASIO service provider.
•Never use the camera inside of an air craft or in any other areas where its use is prohibited. Doing so can result in an accident.
•Physical damage and malfunction of this camera can cause the image data stored in its memory to be deleted. Be sure to always keep backup copies of data by transferring them to personal computer memory.
E-16
PRECAUTIONS
•Never open the battery compartment cover, disconnect the
AC adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while recording images. Doing so will not only make storage of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored in camera memory.
Operating conditions
•This camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging from 0°C to 40°C.
•Do not use or keep the camera in the following areas.
—In areas subject to direct sunlight
—In areas subject to high humidity or dust
—Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject to temperature extremes
—Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the sun
—In areas subject to strong vibration
Condensation
•When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or otherwise expose it to a sudden change of temperature, there is the possibility that condensation can form on the exterior or on interior components. Condensation can cause malfunction of the camera, so you should avoid exposing it to conditions that might cause condensation.
•To keep condensation from forming, place the camera into a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is much warmer or colder than your current location. Leave it in the plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a chance to reach the same temperature as the new location. If condensation does form, remove the batteries from the camera and leave the battery compartment cover open for a few hours.
E-17
PRECAUTIONS
About the camera’s backlight…
•The camera is equipped with a fluorescent light source to provide the back lighting for its LCD.
•The normal service life of the backlight is approximately six years, when the camera is used for about two hours a day.
•Should the LCD image appear abnormally dark, take the camera to your dealer or an authorized CASIO service provider to have the light source replaced. Note that you will be charged for this replacement.
•Under very cold conditions, the backlight may require more time than normal to light, or reddish bands may appear in the displayed image. These conditions do not indicate malfunction, and normal operation should return at higher temperatures.
Monitor Screen
Recording
•The image shown on the monitor screen during recording is intended for composition purposes only, so its quality does not match that of the image as it is recorded. The image is recorded in accordance with the quality setting made with the procedure under “Quality Settings” on page E-55.
•A dimly lit subject can cause static in the displayed image.
Playback
This camera is designed for high-speed scrolling of images during playback. Because of this, the playback image that initially appears on the monitor screen does not show the full resolution of the image as recorded. When you stop at the image you want, the monitor screen refreshes and shows the image in its full resolution.
E-18
PRECAUTIONS
Lens
•Camera performance can be adversely affected by fingerprints or dirt on the lens surface. Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.
•Should the lens become dirty, use a blower to blow off dirt and dust, or a soft, dry cloth to wipe off the lens.
•This camera uses a telescoping type lens, which moves whenever the camera is turned on or off. Make sure nothing is blocking lens movement and never turn power on or off while the camera is laying lens down.
•Never remove batteries or disconnect the AC adaptor while the lens is extended. Doing so can cause the lens to become stuck in the extended position, resulting in camera malfunction.
Date Setting
No date setting is made before the camera is shipped from the factory. Be sure to use the procedure on page E-45 to set the time and date before using the camera for the first time. File name assignment and date and time stamping will not be performed correctly if the time and date are wrong.
E-19

UNPACKING

Buckle
IMPORTANT!
•Be sure to keep the neck strap around your neck when using the camera to protect against accidentally dropping it.
•The supplied neck strap is intended for use with this camera only. Do not use it for any other application.
•Never swing the camera around by the neck strap.
•Allowing the camera to swing freely from your neck can result in damage to the camera due to its bumping against other objects. It also creates the danger of the camera becoming caught in a door or on other objects, resulting in personal injury.
•Keep the camera out of the reach of small children, especially when the neck strap is attached. The neck strap can accidentally wind around the neck of a child and possible create the risk of strangulation.
Keep the camera in its soft case to protect it when not in use.
Monitor screen facing down.
NOTE
Neck strap
You can leave the soft case hanging from the neck strap when using the camera.
IMPORTANT!
Never put any other object besides the camera into the soft case.
