Warning—situations that could cause injury to yourself or
others
Caution—situations that could cause damage to your
camera or other equipment
Note—notes, usage tips, or additional information
Safety warnings
Do not use your camera near flammable or explosive
gases and liquids
Do not use your camera near fuels, combustibles, or flammable
chemicals. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or
explosive materials in the same compartment as the camera or its
accessories.
Keep your camera away from small children and pets
Keep your camera and all accessories out of the reach of small
children and animals. Small parts may cause choking or serious
injury if swallowed. Moving parts and accessories may present
physical dangers as well.
Prevent damage to subjects’ eyesight
Do not use the flash in close proximity (closer than 1 m/3 ft) to
people or animals. Using the flash too close to your subject’s
eyes can cause temporary or permanent damage.
Handle and dispose of batteries and chargers with care
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and chargers. t
Incompatible batteries and chargers can cause serious injuries
or damage to your camera.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Follow all local regulations t
when disposing of used batteries.
Never place batteries or cameras on or in heating devices, t
such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may
explode when overheated.
Avoid interference with pacemakers
Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between cameras and
pacemakers to avoid potential interference, as recommended by
manufacturers and the independent research group, Wireless
Technology Research. If you have any reason to suspect that your
camera is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical device,
turn off the camera immediately and contact the manufacturer of
the pacemaker or medical device for guidance.

Do not allow your camera to get wet—liquids can cause serious t
damage. Do not handle your camera with wet hands. Water
damage to your camera can void your manufacturer’s warranty.
Do not expose the camera to direct sunlight or high t
temperatures for an extended period of time. Prolonged
exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures can cause
permanent damage to your camera’s internal components.
Avoid using or storing your camera in dusty, dirty, humid, or t
poorly-ventilated areas to prevent damage to moving parts and
internal components.
Remove the batteries from your camera when storing it for an t
extended period of time. Installed batteries may leak or corrode
over time and cause serious damage to your camera.
Protect your camera from sand and dirt when using it on t
beaches or in other similar areas.
Protect your camera and monitor from impact, rough handling, t
and excessive vibration to avoid serious damage.

accessories.
Do not insert foreign objects into any of your camera’s t
compartments, slots, or access points. Damage due to
improper use may not be covered by your warranty.
Protect batteries, chargers, and memory cards from
damage
Avoid exposing batteries or memory cards to very cold or very t
hot temperatures (below 0º C/32º F or above 40º C/104º F).
Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity of your
batteries and can cause memory cards to malfunction.
Prevent batteries from making contact with metal objects, as t
this can create a connection between the + and – terminals
of your battery and lead to temporary or permanent battery
damage.
Prevent memory cards from making contact with liquids, dirt, or t
foreign substances. If dirty, wipe the memory card clean with a
soft cloth before inserting in your camera.
Do not allow liquids, dirt, or foreign substances to come in t
contact with the memory card slot. Doing so may cause the
camera to malfunction.
Turn off the camera when inserting or removing the memory t
card.

the image sensor or cause it to malfunction.
Protect your lens from fingerprints and scratches. Clean your t
lens with a soft, clean, debris-free lens cloth.
Follow all safety warnings and regulations

such as pacemakers, hearing aids, medical devices, and
other electronic devices in homes or vehicles. Consult the
manufacturers of your electronic devices to solve any interference
problems you experience.
