To users of this camera

• There is a possibility that recorded data may be erased or that the camera may not function correctly when used in surroundings such as installations generating strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields.

• The liquid crystal panel used in the LCD display is manufactured using extremely high precision technology. Although the level of functioning pixels is 99.99% or better, you should be aware that 0.01% of fewer of the pixels may not illuminate or may illuminate when they should not. However, this has no effect on the recorded image.

• There is a possibility that the illustrations and the display screen of the LCD monitor in this manual are different from the actual product.

FOR SAFE USE OF YOUR CAMERA

Sufficient attention has been paid to the safety of this product but please pay particular attention to the warnings indicated by the following symbols during use.

Warning These symbols indicate that it is possible that the

user may experience serious difficulties if the warnings are not heeded.

Caution These symbols indicate that it is possible that the

user may experience minor or middling difficulties or physical difficulties if the warnings are not heeded.

Warning:

• Do not attempt to take the camera apart or remodel the camera. High voltages are

present within the camera, and there is therefore a danger of electric shocks.

• If the inside of the camera should become exposed as a result of, for example, the

camera being dropped, please do not under any circumstances touch such exposed portions, as there is a danger of receiving an electric shock.

• Wrapping the strap of the camera around your neck is also dangerous, and please

take care that small children do not hang the strap around their necks.

• Use an AC adapter and Battery charger that are of the power and voltage specified

for exclusive use with this product.The use of an AC adapter other than that specified exclusively for use with this product may cause fire or electric shocks.

• Discontinue use of the AC adapter during thunderstorms. This can cause a fire or

electrical shock.

Caution:

• Do not attempt to touch the product, should the product catch fire due to a battery

short, etc, and do not attempt to disassemble or charge the battery at such times, as there is a danger of the product bursting into flames.

• On the other hand, should the camera battery explode or start smoking, extract the

battery as soon as possible, taking great care not to get burnt at such times.

• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as there is a

risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long periods of time.

Care to be Taken During Handling

• Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol benzene.

• Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Par ticular care should

be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.

• Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be avoided.

Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera from becoming moldy during storage.

• Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or any other liq-

uid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any other liquid, wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth.

• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure.

Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.

• The liquid crystal display will become black at temperatures of approximately 60°C

but will return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.

• The display response speed of the liquid crystal becomes slow at low temperatures

but this is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.

• Remove dust from the lens viewfinder using a blower or clean off dust using a lens

brush.

• Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain high-perfor-

mance.

• When the camera has not been used for a long time, please, without fail, try out the

camera to confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or during travelling).No guarantee can be given with regards to collateral damage (costs incurred as a result of taking pictures, loss of benefits that were to be obtained through taking pictures) that may cause this product to fail.

• If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, drops of water appear on

the inside and outside of the camera.Therefore put the camera in a bag or plastic bag, and take the camera out when the difference in temperature has subsided.

• The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C.

• Take care to ensure that garbage, dirt, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, salt, etc. do not

enter within the camera, as this may cause the camera to become damaged. If rain or drops of water get onto the camera, please wipe dry.

• Please refer to “Precautions When Using a CF Card” (p.15) regarding the

CompactFlash CF card.
