Safety Precautions
Precautions regarding the liquid crystal display
Read this first
• Do not apply excessive pressure to the liquid crystal display. This may cause smears, prevent photos from
being played back properly, or damage the liquid crystal display. Should the liquid crystal display break,
avoid getting any of the liquid crystal in your mouth. If it contacts your skin or clothing, wash it off
immediately with soap and water.
• Lines, like strips of light, may appear at the top or bottom of the liquid crystal display. This is not a
malfunction.
• When photographing an oblique subject, the subject may appear on the screen with ragged edges. This is not
a malfunction. The ragged edges will disappear when the photo is played back.
• In general, the lower the temperature, the longer it takes the liquid crystal display to turn on. Photos may also
appear temporarily discolored. Keep this product warm when using in a cold region. Performance of the
liquid crystal display may deteriorate in low temperatures, but will be restored when this product is returned
to normal temperatures.
• The latest high precision technology has gone into the making of the liquid crystal display
of this product, but there are some pixels which are permanently lit or which do not light at
all. These pixels do not affect the recorded photo. Also, depending on the angle at which
the screen is viewed, the colors and brightness may appear uneven. This is due to the
structure of the liquid crystal display and is not a malfunction.
Precautions when handling the cradle
Danger
• Do not expose the cradle to water. Using it when wet or in a humid area (such as a bathroom) may
cause fire, overheating or electric shock.
• Never modify or disassemble the cradle. This may cause fire, overheating, electric shock or injury.
Warning
• Do not put metal objects on the cradle. This may cause fire, overheating or electric shock.
• Keep out of the reach of children. Do not let children use this product without adult supervision.
EN-12

battery leakage or other damage may result.
• Do not put anything heavy on the cradle or leave it in an unstable position or in a humid place. This may
cause explosion, fire, leakage, or battery malfunction.
• Do not touch the cradle for too long when using it. This may cause minor burns.
• If charging does not complete after 5 hours, there may be a malfunction. If this occurs, disconnect the power
plug and consult your nearest Olympus service center.

You can organize audio files with m:trip. If there is a file on m:trip which you do not want to transfer to your
m:robe though you want to keep it on m:trip, uncheck the “Sync Checkbox” beside its track on the m:trip screen
to prevent the file from synchronizing.
You can also use the “Sync Checkbox” to delete files in your m:robe. Unchecking the “Sync Checkbox” of the
file you want to delete on m:trip will delete the file next time you synchronize your m:robe and m:trip.

About synchronization between your m:robe and m:trip
About image file synchronization
You can set photos taken on your m:robe or stored on m:trip not to synchronize by unchecking the “Sync
Checkbox.” You can also delete them on your m:robe.
If you delete image files on your m:robe, and then synchronize your m:robe and m:trip, the “Sync Checkbox”
of these files will be unchecked automatically. Although these files will not be transferred back to your m:robe
next time when you synchronize, they will remain on m:trip.
Tip
The number of photos in each album (“keyword” in m:trip) you can transfer from m:trip by synchronization is 250 (excluding
“FAVORITES”), in the order you imported them to m:trip.
About remix data synchronization
All remix data (including audio files, image files, and remix templates that form a remix cube) is synchronized.
A remix cube you do not want to keep either in your m:robe or m:trip any more can be deleted on m:trip.
(Deleting a remix cube does not delete the music/image files or remix template forming the remix cube from
your computer.)
For details, refer to the m:trip online Help.
For details on remix cube and remix templates, refer to “ REMIX” (gpage 31).
Note
If you delete files on m:trip, these files will be also deleted automatically from your m:robe next time you synchronize.
Read this first
Tips
• We recommend using m:trip for convenient use of your m:robe; using m:trip allows you to easily manage data, such as
backing up. In addition, be careful not to delete data managed by m:trip.
• If you have 2 or more m:robes, you can organize the data of each m:robe with one computer. You can manage up to 8
m:robes with one computer.
However, you cannot manage one m:robe with 2 or more computers.
For details, refer to the m:trip online Help.
