Care to be Taken During Handling

Before Starting Use

• When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in the package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.

• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or when traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc.

• The lens on this camera is not interchangeable. The lens is not removable.

About the Battery and Battery Charger

• Storing the battery fully charged may decrease the battery performance. Avoid storing it especially in high temperatures. If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time, the battery will over-discharge and shorten the battery’s service life.

•

Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is recommended.

• The AC plug cord supplied with the camera is for exclusive use with the battery charger D-BC92. Do not use it with any other equipment.

OptioWG1_eng.book Page 6 Friday, March 11, 2011 4:10 PM

Cautions when Carrying and Using the Camera

•

Hot and humid places should be avoided. Particular care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.

• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks, or pressure as this may cause damage, malfunction, or a loss in waterproof performance. Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, ship, etc. If the camera is subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks, or pressure, take your camera to your nearest PENTAX Service Center and have it checked.

• The temperature range in which the camera can be used is -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F).

• The liquid crystal display will become black at high temperatures but will return to normal at normal temperatures.

• The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low temperatures. This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a malfunction.

• If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation may form on the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore don't open the battery/card and terminal covers before the difference in temperature has subsided.

• Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salts. These could cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry off any rain or water drops.

• Please do not press forcefully on the display. This could cause it to break or malfunction.

• Be careful not to sit down with the camera in your back pocket as this may damage the exterior of the camera or the display.

• When using a tripod with the camera, be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket on the camera.

About Repairs

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

• Use a lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens. Never use a spray blower for cleaning as it may damage the lens.

OptioWG1_eng.book Page 7 Friday, March 11, 2011 4:10 PM

About Storage

• Avoid storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled. Remove the camera from its case and store it in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera from becoming moldy during storage.

Others

• Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain high performance.

• Refer to “Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card” (p.47) regarding the SD Memory Card.

This camera comes with a “Face Detection” function that spots the faces in your shot and automatically adjusts the focus and exposure for the faces. It can recognize up to 32 people per shot (*1), so it will help you take perfect group shots too. It automatically releases the shutter when people are smiling, and if anyone blinks, it tells you that. It also tells you where faces are detected on the screen (*2), so you can take the shot again until it is perfect. It also has a feature that lets you enlarge each person’s face in sequence during playback so you can quickly check their facial expressions.

*1 Up to 31 face detection frames are displayed on the monitor. *2 The camera can tell the position of up to 2 detected faces using the

lights around the lens as indicators.

Face Detection function (p.80). Modes for taking stunning pictures of people (p.92). Close-ups of people’s faces for easy checking during

playback (p.174).

Self-portrait Assist function tells you the face position

on the screen (p.83).

Use the camera to shoot fun-filled movies of your

children or pets as a visual diary of their development (p.150).
