General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever using the QV-700.
All references in this manual to “this camera” and “the camera” refer
to the CASIO QV-700 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.
• 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 unit, immediately
turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and
contact your dealer or nearest CASIO service provider. Using the
unit under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical
shock.
• Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the
unit, immediately turn power off and unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet. Using the unit under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. After making sure there is no more
smoke coming from the unit, take it to your nearest CASIO service
provider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
• If the unit’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.
LCD Digital Camera
• Never use the unit inside of an air craft or in any other areas where

Battery Life Notes
• The battery life figures noted in the specifications of this Owner’s
Manual indicate the number of hours before battery failure under
normal operating temperatures (25°C). They do not guarantee that
batteries will perform for any amount of time.
• The actual number of hours of service provided by batteries varies
widely depending upon manufacturer, battery age, and temperature.
• Long term continued use of the camera can cause the low battery
indicator to appear sooner than expected. Be sure to turn off power
whenever the camera is not being used.
• Appearance of the low battery indicator means that batteries are
about to go dead. Be sure to replace all four batteries a fresh set of
new ones as soon as possible. Leaving dead batteries in the camera creates the danger of leaking batter fluid and corruption of
stored image data.

Memory Cards
Memory Card Precautions
• Images cannot be recorded with this camera unless a memory card
is installed in it.
• Be sure to use only CASIO memory cards. Proper operation with
other memory cards is not guaranteed.
• Static electricity, electrical noise, and other electrical phenomena
can cause corruption or even total loss of the data stored on a
memory card. Because of this, you should always make backup
copies of important images on other media (magnetic optical disk,
floppy diskette, computer hard disk, etc.).
• Memory card problems can be corrected by reformatting the
memory card (page 18). Reformatting a memory card deletes all
images stored on the card, but you can use a computer to copy the
images you want to keep to the computer’s hard disk before
reformatting your card. If you plan to be recording images where
you do not have access to a computer, it is a good idea to take
along an extra memory card or two just in case you experience an
unexpected memory card problem.
Memory Card Folder Precautions
• The folders (directories) (page 20) are automatically created if the
card you are using does not already have similarly named folders
(page 68).
• Any folders (created on the memory card by a personal computer)
other than those shown on page 20 do not appear on the camera’s
display.
• You can store up to 250 images in a single folder. Any images
above this number (placed in the folder using a personal computer)
are not displayed by the camera.
Getting Acquainted
• When calculating remaining memory capacity, the camera compares the total capacity of the memory card with the number of images that can be stored in each folder. The value indicating the
number of images that still can be recorded is the lower of these two
values.
• Images in camera memory are assigned names that are generated
according to the following format:
The 3-digit number starts with 001 and is incremented for each additional image. Deleting or moving images causes all following images to be renamed (renumbered) so there are never any breaks in
the sequential numbering.
• If you assign a name that does not conform to the rules described
above on your PC, the file will be renamed automatically when you
place it into a folder.
Power Supply
Getting Acquainted
The camera features a two-way power supply that lets you use either
batteries (AA-size Alkaline or Lithium) or household AC current.
To load batteries
Be sure that camera power is turned off whenever loading or replacing batteries.

Battery Handling Precautions
Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak or burst
and seriously damage your camera. Be sure to note the following
important precautions to avoid problems with batteries.
• Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or
FR6 type lithium dry cell batteries
with this camera. Never mix old batteries with new ones. Failure to do so
can result in bursting or leaking of
batteries, creating the danger of fire
or personal injury.
Caution
• Always make sure that the positive
[+] and negative [–] ends of the batteries are facing correctly, as noted
by the markings on the camera itself.
Improper loading of batteries can result in bursting or leaking of batteries,
creating the danger of personal injury
or soiling of objects nearby.
• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use it for
more than two weeks.
• Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection between
two ends of a battery, and never try to take batteries apart.
• Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can cause serious
damage to your camera. Remove batteries from the camera as
soon as you notice they are dead.
• The batteries that power this camera normally become warm when
they lose power. This does not indicate malfunction.
