allow metals (wires, necklaces, etc.) to come into contact with batteries.
Fluid leakage, heat, fire and damage may occur as a result.
Caution
Do not point the lens directly at the sun or at a strong light source.
Malfunction of internal parts may occur from concentrated rays of light. Using
the camera in such conditions may cause short circuits and breakdown of insu-
lation, resulting in overheating and/or fire.
Take care not to get fingers caught in the battery/card cover.
Personal injury may occur as a result.
When using the camera inside an airplane, follow the directions of the airline company.
Electric waves emitted from the camera may affect airplane cockpit instruments.
Do not leave the camera in locations such as:
● A location exposed to direct sunlight or inside a car, etc. where the tem-
perature may become extremely high.
Fire and/or damage to the unit may occur.
● Within the reach of children.
The strap may wrap around the neck causing strangulation, or accessories
such as batteries, SD Memory Card, etc. may be swallowed.
● Unstable surfaces such as on an unstable table or an angled surface.
Camera dropping on the head or other body parts may not only cause per-
sonal injury but malfunction of the unit as well.
● A location exposed to lampblack, steam, high humidity, dust or vibration.
If dust or liquid enters the camera or if the internal parts are damaged by
strong vibration, overheating, fire or electrical shock may occur as a result.
7
Important Safety Precautions
Caution
Do not use force when operating the camera.
The camera may become damaged, causing personal injury as a result.
Do not use the flash near eyes.
Eye injury may occur as a result.
Check that the polarity is correct when inserting batteries.
The battery may heat, damage or leak if the polarity is not correct, possibly
causing skin burns and/or personal injury as a result.
Do not use batteries which have become soiled with oil or sweat.
If soiled, wipe the contacts with a dry cloth before use.
When cleaning or carrying out non-photographic operations on the camera, disconnect the AC adapter for safety.
Remove the batteries when the camera will not be used for an extended
period.
If the camera is to be used by a child, the correct usage must be taught by
a parent or guardian.
Personal injury may occur as a result.
Do not rotate the camera when mounting on a tripod.
About battery fluid leakage
● Should battery fluid leaks ever come into contact with hands or clothing,
wash immediately with water.
● Loss of eyesight may occur if battery fluid enters the eye. In such case, do
not rub the eye. Immediately flush the eye with water and seek medical
attention.
8
About the LCD monitor
● Due to the characteristics of liquid crystals, the brightness of the LCD monitor may appear
uneven with changes in temperature, etc.
● The LCD monitor has been developed using high-precision engineering and is superior in
sharpness and picture quality. Due to the nature of liquid crystals, however, there may be
missing or constantly lit pixels on the monitor. This is not a malfunction of the unit.
● If the LCD monitor becomes damaged for some reason, take care to prevent personal
injury from broken glass, etc. Furthermore, take care that liquid crystals do not touch the
skin or enter the eyes or mouth.
About the SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card
As well as the SD Memory Card included with this camera, Multi-Media Cards may also be
used.
Caution
SD Memory Cards and Multi-Media Cards are manufactured using precision electronic com-
ponents. Do not perform the following as malfunction or damage may occur as a result.
● Do not touch the terminal with hands or metal objects. Damage to the components may
occur as a result of static electricity. Before handling an SD Memory Card or Multi-Media
Card, discharge any static build-up from your body by touching grounded metal, etc.
● Do not bend, drop or apply excessive force.
● Avoid heat, liquid and direct sunlight when using and for storage.
● Do not open the battery/card cover or remove the SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card
while data is being read or written.
● Do not dismantle or modify.
9
Important
● When using Multi-Media Cards, the operation response time may be longer during shoot-
ing and playback when compared with the SD Memory Cards. However, this is due to the
specification of the Multi-Media Card and is not a malfunction.
● The SD Memory Card includes a write-protect switch.
Sliding this switch downward prevents data from be-
ing written to the card and images, etc. saved on the
card are protected.
Please note that pictures cannot be taken or deleted
when the write-protect switch is on.
If such an operation is attempted, you will be notified
by an LED lighting in the viewfinder and a buzzer sound-
ing. (See page 22.)
● When using a large-capacity card, card check and deletion may take some time.
● Always back-up important data.
● When using SD Memory Cards/Multi-Media Cards on a PC, do not change the attributes
(read-only, etc.) of the files (image data) on the card. Doing so may prevent the camera
from working properly when deleting images, etc.
● Do not change the file names or the directory name of image data saved on an SD Memory
Card/Multi-Media Card using a PC or save files other than image data taken by this cam-
era. Images that have been changed or added will not only play back on the camera but
may cause the camera to malfunction as well.
● Always format SD Memory Cards/Multi-Media Cards using this camera. A card formatted
in a PC may not operate properly.
● Data loss may occur at times due to malfunction or damage. However, Konica will not be
responsible in any way in the event of such data loss.

Before Using
● Perform test shooting
Always take some test shots before taking important pictures such as weddings, etc. to
make sure that the camera is working properly.
● Shot contents are not guaranteed
No compensation will be made for pictures that are unsuccessful due to problems with the
camera or SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card.
● Be aware of copyright

Recommended humidity: 40% – 60%
About the SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card
Handling
• Do not bend or apply excessive force.
• Do not store the card in places with high humidity, dusty places or where static electricity
or electromagnetic fields are likely to occur.
• Keep dust, water and foreign objects away from the terminal section.
About image data
• Use a PC to delete images and files recorded with other models.
• The recorded data may be lost when you or a third part misuses the SD Memory Card/
Multi-Media Card, if the card is affected by strong static electricity or electrical shock, or
during card repair or malfunction.
Konica will not be responsible in any way for the loss of recorded data or the conse-
quences of such loss.
About the LCD monitor
• The LCD monitor has been developed using high-precision engineering. Although the per-
centage of active pixels is more than 99.98%, there may be missing or constantly lit pixels.
• When using the LCD monitor in a cold location, the screen may appear darker than normal
immediately after starting use. The screen will return to normal brightness as the internal
temperature of the camera rises.
• When the LCD monitor becomes dirty with finger prints or dust, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
