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 eld, e.g. near motors, transformers or
magnets.
Do not place the camera on a wet surface or
places where dripping 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.
If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a warm place, moisture may condense inside the camera. We suggest you wait for a while

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 re.
• Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify
the batteries.
• Use GE charger in the package to charge the
lithium battery only (for G and E series).
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
has been initialized by a PC, 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 disk and then format memory card if upgrade
the rmware.
Do not change or delete the directory names, or le
names in the memory card from your PC, as this may
make it impossible to use the card in your camera.

LCD Screen notes:
Extremely high-precision technology had
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 pro-
cess and the recording is not aected in any
way.
If the LCD monitor is damaged, take
particular care with the liquid crystal in
the monitor. If any of the following
situations arise, take the urgent action
indicated.
•
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, ush the
aected eye with clean water for at least 15
minutes and then seek medical assistance.
•
If liquid crystal is swallowed, ush your
mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large
quantities of water and induce vomiting.
Then seek medical assistance.
