Caution Contents

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in a minor or moderate injury.

● Leaking, overheating, or damaged battery could result in fire or injury.

- Use battery with the correct specification for the camera.

- Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of battery in fire.

- Do not insert the battery with the polarities reversed.

● Remove the battery when not planning to use the camera for a long period of
time. Otherwise the battery may leak corrosive electrolyte and permanently
damage the camera’s components.

● Do not fire the flash while it is in contact with hands or objects. Do not touch
the flash after using it continuously. It may cause burns.

● Do not move the camera while it is switched on when you are using the AC
Charger. After use, always switch off the camera before unplugging the cable

● Take care not to touch the lens or lens cover to avoid taking an unclear image
and possibly causing camera malfunction.

● Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

● Before inserting any cables or AC adapter, check the directions and do not

insert by force. It may cause breakage of cable or camera.

● Credit cards may be demagnetized if left near a camera case. Avoid leaving

How to use the AUTO mode

Please select this mode for quick and easy picture taking with minimal
user interaction.

1. Insert the battery (p.15) taking note of the correct
polarity (+ / -).

2. Insert the memory card (p.15). As this camera
has a 16MB internal memory, it is not essential

internal memory. If the memory card is inserted,
an image will be stored on the memory card.

3. Close the battery chamber cover.

4. Press the power button to turn on the camera.
(If the date / time that is displayed on the
AMOLED monitor is incorrect, reset the date /
time before taking a picture.)

5. Select the AUTO mode by rotating the mode dial.

6. Point the camera towards the subject and compose the image by using the
AMOLED monitor.

7. Press the shutter button to capture an image.

● If the Auto focus area turns to red when you press the shutter button
down half way, it means that the camera cannot focus on the subject.
Should this be the case, the camera is unable to capture an image
clearly.

● Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

The camera’s sensitivity is automatically changed by
variables such as lighting value or subject brightness.

You can increase the shutter speed while the same
amount of light is present, by increasing the ISO
sensitivity. However, the image may be saturated in
high luminance. The higher the ISO value, the greater
is the camera’s sensitivity to light; therefore it has a
greater capacity for taking pictures in darker conditions.
However, the noise level in the image will increase as
the ISO value increases, making the image appear
coarse.

This camera automatically adjusts the exposure according to the
ambient lighting conditions. You can also select the exposure value in the
compensating exposure menu. Exposure compensation menu is available
in the Program and DUAL IS, Movie mode.

Important notes

Be sure to observe the following precautions!

● This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store
this unit in the following locations.

- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.

- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.

- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.

- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.

● Do not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals
(like naphthalene and mothball), high temperatures or high humidity.
Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically sealed box when not
planning to use the camera for a long period of time.

● Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

- Do not let sand get inside the camera when using it on beaches, coastal

dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.

-

Doing so may result in failure or may render the camera permanently unusable.

● Handling the camera

- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

- Protect the large size AMOLED monitor from an impact. When this camera

is not used, keep it in the camera case. You should be careful that it could
be scratched easily by sand, knife, glass, coin.

- Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

- This camera is not waterproof. To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never

hold or operate the camera with wet hands.

- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let

water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may
permanently damage the unit.

● Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment,
condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this seems
likely, wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed before attempting
to use the camera.
Moisture built up can also occur on the memory card. If this happens, turn
off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has
dispersed.

● Caution on Using the Lens

- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in the discoloration
and deterioration of the image sensor.

- Avoid getting fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.

● If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge

can occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery and the memory card if
you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.

● If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off

to protect the memory card.

<< 73 >>

Important notes Warning indicator

● Camera Maintenance.

- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and
AMOLED assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens
cleaning fluid can be used.
Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come
into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners
