Handling the Camera

WARNING

( Do not use the camera near flammable or explosive gases. ( Do not use the flash and LED on people (infants, small children,

etc.) at close range.

• You must be at least 1 m (3 ft.) away from the faces of your subjects. Firing the flash too close to the subject’s eyes could cause a momentary loss of vision.

( Keep young children and infants away from the camera.

• Always use and store the camera out of the reach of young children and infants to prevent the following dangerous situations which could cause serious injury:

• Becoming entangled in the camera strap, causing strangulation.

• Accidentally swallowing the battery, cards or other small parts.

• Accidentally firing the flash into their own eyes or those of another child.

• Accidentally being injured by the moving parts of the camera.

( Do not look at the sun or strong lights with the camera. ( Do not use or store the camera in dusty or humid places. ( Do not cover the flash with a hand while firing.

CAUTION

( Stop using the camera immediately if you notice any unusual

odors, noise, or smoke around it.

• Never remove the batteries with bare hands, which may cause a fire or burn your hands.

( Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands. ( Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject to

extremely high temperatures.

• Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some circumstances, cause the camera to catch fire. Do not use the charger if it is covered (such as a blanket). This could cause overheating, resulting in fire.

( Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-temperature

burn.

• When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can result in a lowtemperature burn. Pay attention to the following:

• When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you hold on to

the camera in this state, a low-temperature burn may be caused.

• In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the

camera’s body may be lower than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling the camera in cold temperatures.

( Be careful with the strap.

• Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects - and cause serious damage.

Battery Handling Precautions

Follow these important guidelines to prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, burning, exploding, or causing electrical shocks or burns.

DANGER

• The camera uses a lithium ion battery specified by Olympus. Charge the battery with the specified charger. Do not use any other chargers.

• Never heat or incinerate batteries.

• Take precautions when carrying or storing batteries to prevent them from coming into contact with any metal objects such as jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc.

• Never store batteries where they will be exposed to direct sunlight, or subjected to high temperatures in a hot vehicle, near a heat source, etc.

• To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging their terminals, carefully follow all instructions regarding the use of batteries. Never attempt to disassemble a battery or modify it in any way, by soldering, etc.

• If battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush your eyes immediately with clear, cold running water and seek medical attention immediately.

• Always store batteries out of the reach of small children. If a child accidentally swallows a battery, seek medical attention immediately.

WARNING

• Keep batteries dry at all times.

• To prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, or causing a fire or explosion, use only batteries recommended for use with this product.

• Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating instructions.

• If rechargeable batteries have not been recharged within the specified time, stop charging them and do not use them.

• Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken.

• If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or becomes abnormal in any other way during operation, stop using the camera.

• If a battery leaks fluid onto your clothing or skin, remove the clothing and flush the affected area with clean, running cold water immediately. If the fluid burns your skin, seek medical attention immediately.

• Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous vibration.

CAUTION

• Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks, discoloration, warping, or any other abnormality.

• The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid minor burns, do not remove it immediately after using the camera.

• Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period.
