The battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated.

Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 100°C or incinerate.

Replace battery with Panasonic, Sanyo, Sony or Maxell CR2025.

Danger of explosion or risk of fire if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

Dispose of used battery promptly.

Keep away from children.

Do not disassemble and do not dispose of in fire.

.

When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or on a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm or more on both sides, on top and at the rear).

Do not block the ventilation holes.

(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be able to get out.)

No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.

When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws governing the disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.

The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

Do not point the lens directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well as lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.

CAUTION!

The following notes concern possible physical damage to this unit and to the user.

Carrying or holding this unit by the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction.

Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious damage to the unit.

CAUTIONS:

 

 

To prevent shock, do not open the

 

 

cabinet. No user serviceable parts

 

 

inside.

 

 

Refer servicing to qualified personnel.

Introduction

When you are not using the AC

adapter for a long period of time, it is

 

 

 

 

recommended that you disconnect the

 

 

power cord from AC outlet.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION:

 

 

Where there are strong electromagnetic

 

 

waves or magnetism, for example near a

 

 

radio or TV transmitter, transformer,

 

 

motor, etc., the picture and the sound

 

 

may be disturbed. In such case, please

 

 

keep the apparatus away from the

 

 

sources of the disturbance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION:

 

 

To avoid electric

 

 

shock or damage to

 

 

the unit, first firmly

 

 

insert the small end

 

 

of the power cord into the AC Adapter

 

 

until it is no longer wobbly, and then plug

 

 

the larger end of the power cord in to an

 

 

AC outlet.

... do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding 60°C, as this may cause the battery to overheat, explode or catch fire.

... use only specified chargers.

To prevent damage and prolong service life

... do not subject to unnecessary shock.

... charge within the temperature range of 10°C to 30°C. Cooler temperatures require longer charging time, or in some cases stop charging at all. Warmer temperatures prevent complete charging, or in some cases stop charging at all.

... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high temperatures will increase natural discharge and shorten service life.

... keep a 30% battery levelif the battery pack is not to be used for a long period of time.
