FOR SAFE USE OF YOUR CAMERA

Although wo have carafully designed this camera for safe operation, please be sure to follow precautions given on this page.

A\ WARNING This mark indicates precautions that, if not followed, could result in
serious injury to the operator.
/K CAUTION This mark indicates precautions that, if not followed, could result in
minor or medium injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.
A WARNING
• The electronic circuits inside the camera contain
high voltage working parts. Never attempt to disas semble the camera yourself.
• Never touch internal parts of the camera if they be
come exposed from dropping the camera or for some other reason, as there is danger of an electric shock.
• Wrapping the strap around your neck is danger
ous. Make sure that small children do not get the strap caught around their neck.
• Do not look directly at the sun through the camera, as viewing the sun for an extended period may damage your eyes.
• Be sure to store batteries out of the reach of chil dren. Seek medical assistance immediately if acci dentally swallowed.
^ CAUTION
> Do not use the flash near anyone's eyes, as it may
hurt them. Be particularly careful with the flash around infants.
> Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the bat
tery. Also, do not dispose of the battery in fire, as it may explode.
• Remove the batteries from the camera immediately if they become hot or begin to smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.

PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR CAMERA

Your Pentax camera is a high-precision mechanism. Handle it with great care.
Precautions when taking pictures
• Do not use the camera where it may come in con tact with rain, water, or any other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resis tant. Should the camera get wet from rain, splash
ing water, or any other liquid wipe it off
immediately with a dry soft cloth.
• Do not drop the camera or allow it to hit solid ob jects. If the camera suffers a shock or impact, take it to a Pentax service center for inspection.
• Be careful not to subject the camera to strong vi brations, shock or pressure. Use a cushion to pro tect the camera when carrying it in a motorcycle, car, boat, etc.
• Condensation on the interior or exterior of the cam era may be extremely harmful to the camera
mechanism as it may cause rust. Furthermore, if the camera is taken from warm temperature to a subfreezing one or vice versa, the formation of icelets may cause damage. In such a case, put the
camera into a case or plastic bag so that any changes in temperature difference is minimized. Do
not remove it from the bag until temperature has stabilized.
• Regular size color prints may cut off what appears on the extreme edges of the film frame. Compose your picture with a margin of safety at the edges.
Precautions for storage
• Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in places where the humidity and temperature are very high, such as in a car.
• Do not store the camera in a closet with moth balls or in an area where chemicals are handled. Store it
in a place with good dry air circulation to prevent
the growth of fungus.
Precautions for proper care
• Never touch the shutter curtain or mirror with your finger or any other object.
• Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accu mulated on the lens or viewfinder.
• Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzene to clean the camera.
• Electrical problems may often be caused by water, dirt or dust at points of electrical contact. Also check for battery leakage, traces of dirt or grease, or corrosion due to salinity or gas. If you cannot correct the problems, have your camera inspected at a Pentax service center. Repairs of this nature are not covered under the terms of the warranty
and charges may be assessed.

PRECAUTIONS FOR BAHERY USAGE

Other precautions

• The temperature range at which this camera functions properly is 50“C to -10°C (122'F to 1 4 F).
• A camera which has been submerged in water usually cannot be repaired. If such an accident should occur, it is advisable to contact a Pentax Service Center immediately.
• To maintain optimum performance, it is recom mended that the camera be inspected every one or two years. If the camera has not been used for an extended period, or is being prepared for an important photographic session, it is recom mended that you have the camera inspected or
test shoot with it.
• Repairs deemed necessary due to usage of this product in an industrial or commercial application may not be covered under the terms of the Pentax warranty.
• The PENTAX warranty provides only for the re pair of defects in materials or workmanship. Damage of any kind cannot be repaired at no
charge under the terms of the warranty. If the dif ficulty is caused as a direct result of the product
being used in conditions as outlined in the
"Precautions for Your Camera" section or any other operation contrary to the instructions out lined in this manual, charges will be assessed and a repair quotation will be provided.
Use two 3V lithium batteries (CR2 type). Misuse of the battery can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating, explosion, etc. The battery should be inserted with the " i " and sides fac ing correctly. Battery performance may be temporarily hin dered in low temperatures, but will recover in normal temperatures. Keep a spare battery on hand for replacement convenience when shooting outdoors or while traveling. If the built-in flash is used continuously, the bat tery may become warm, but it does not mean that the battery is faulty: it is one of the battery's characteristics. Replace the batteries at the same time. Do not mix battery brands, type or an old battery with a new one. It may cause explosion or overheating.
