1. Camera Precaution
Before using the camera, please ensure that you read and
understand the safety precautions described below.
Always ensure that the camera is operated correctly.
• Never operate the camera inside of an aircraft or
anywhere else where operation of such devices is
restricted. Improper use creates the risk of serious
accident.
• Do not aim the camera directly into the sun or other
intense light sources which could damage your
eyesight.
• Do not try to open the case of the camera or attempt
to modify this camera in any way. High-voltage
internal components create the risk of electric shock
when exposed. Maintenance and repairs should be
carried out only by authorized service providers.
• Keep the camera and its accessories out of the reach
of children and animals to prevent accidents or
damage to the camera.
2
• If you notice smoke or a strange odor coming from
the camera, turn the power off immediately. Take the
camera to the nearest authorized service center for
repair. Never attempt to repair the camera on your
own.
• Use only the recommended power accessories. Use
of power sources not expressly recommended for
this equipment may lead to overheating, distortion of
the equipment, fire, electrical shock or other hazards.
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the
surface of the lens to avoid scratches on the lens
surface or any malfunction.
• The camera may become slightly warm during use.
This does not indicate malfunction.
• If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it
with a soft, dry cloth.
• If there is leaking, discoloration, change of shape,
rise in temperature, damaged exterior, strange odor
or any other abnormal condition, immediately
discontinue use and remove the battery pack from
the camera, taking care to keep it well away from fire.
