your nearest service center. Continued use can cause a fire or electric
shock.
Caution
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care,
as there is a risk of low temperatur e burns if such portions are held for
long periods of time.
• Should the LCD screen be damaged, be careful of glass fragments.
Also, be careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin, in your

Date and Place:January, 2016, Colorado
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES003 (B).
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless
devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit
low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave
range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce
health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that
does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse
health effects. Man y studies of low-level RF exposure s have not
found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not
been confirmed by additional research. RICOH WG-M2 has
been tested and found to comply with IC radiation exposure
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
Pour les utilisateurs au Canada
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme
NMB-003 (B) du Canada.
Les connaissances scientifiques dont nous disposons n’ont mis
en évidence aucun problème de santé associé à l’usage des
appareils sans fil à faible puissance. Nous ne sommes
cependant pas en mesure de prouver que ces appareils sans fil
à faible puissance sont entièrement sans danger. Les appareils
sans fil à faible puissance émettent une énergie fréquence
radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des micro-ondes
lorsqu’ils sont utilisés. Alors qu’une dose élevée de RF peut
avoir des effets sur la santé (en chauffant les tissus),
l’exposition à de faibles R F qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n’a
pas de mauvais effets connus sur la santé. De nombreuses
études ont été menées sur les expositions aux RF faibles et
n’ont découvert aucun effet biologique. Certaines études ont
suggéré qu’il pouvait y avoir certains effets biologiques, mais
ces résultats n’ont pas été confirmés par des recherches
supplémentaires. RICOH WG-M2 a été testé et jugé conforme
aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements IC énoncées pour
un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles
d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de
l’IC.
