Safety Tips

Precautions for the camera:

• Do not attempt to modify this camera in any way. This may cause a fire or

electric shock or severe damage to the camera.

• Do not use the flash in close proximity to people or animals. Positioning the

flash too close to your subject's eyes may cause eyesight damage.

• When taking photographs, never point the lens of the camera directly into very

strong light. This may result in permanent damage to the camera or your eyesight.

• Please do not use this product in close proximity to flammable or explosive

gases as this could increase the risk of explosion.

• For safety reasons keep this product and accessories out of reach of children or

animals to prevent accidents.

• Do not swallow the battery or small camera accessories.

• Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and never let it get wet. Do

not use outdoors when it is raining or snowing.

• Should any form of liquid enter the camera, do not use it. Switch the camera off,

and then remove the battery. Do not continue to use the camera as this may cause a fire or electric shock.

• Do not insert or drop metallic or inflammable foreign objects into the camera

Page 99

SAFETY TIPS AND MAINTENANCE

• Do not operate this camera with wet hands. This could pose a risk of electric shock.

• Under the environment with electrostatic discharge, the camera may malfunction and require the user to reset the camera.

• Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with the Class B FCC limits.

• Please avoid using the camera in high or low temperature. Operation temperature range 32ºF - 104ºF (0ºC - 40ºC).

• It is normal that the temperature of the camera body rises after being in use for a long period.

• Do not leave this camera in places subject to extremely high temperatures such as in a sealed vehicle, direct sunlight or other places with extreme variances in temperature. Exposure to extreme temperatures may adversely affect the camera's internal components and could cause a fire.

• Always use the camera and its accessories in a well-ventilated area.

Precautions for the battery:

• Use 1 x CR123 battery only.

• Dispose of the battery in a manner that complies with applicable laws.

• Leakage, overheating, or a burst battery could result in fire or injury.

• Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of the battery in fire.

• Ensure the battery is positioned correctly with regard to polarity (+/-).

• Allowing dust to accumulate in the camera over a long period is hazardous and in extreme circumstances may cause a fire. It is best to clean your camera prior to seasonal periods of high humidity.

• Do not open the battery/memory card door or remove the Memory Card while data is being read or written.

• Do not dismantle or modify.

• The recorded data may be lost if the card is affected by strong static electricity or electrical shock, or during card repair or malfunction.

• When using Memory Cards do not change the attributes (read-only, etc.) of the files pictures (JPG) or video clips (AVI) on the card. Doing so may prevent the camera from working properly when deleting, etc.

• Do not change the file names or the directory name of the pictures or video clips using a computer or save files other than pictures or video clips taken by this camera onto the SD memory card. Pictures or video clips that have been edited or added to the SD memory card with the computer may not play back and it may cause the camera to malfunction.
