Safety Information
• Do not look at the sun through the viewfinder. Viewing the sun
or other strong light source through the viewfinder could cause
permanent visual impairment.
• Do not disassemble the camera. Touching the product's
internal parts could result in injury. In the event of a malfunction
or if the camera is accidentally broken open, take the product
to an authorized service center for inspection.
• Avoid contact with liquid crystal. Should the LC display break,
care should be taken to avoid injury due to broken glass and
to prevent the liquid crystal from touching the skin or entering
the eyes or mouth.
• Do not use in the presence of flammable gas. Using electronic
equipment near flammable gas could result in explosion or fire.
• Observe proper precautions when handling batteries. The
camera uses only size AA alkaline batteries. Batteries may leak
or explode if handled improperly. Remove the batteries (and
the memory card) from the camera if you are going to store
the camera for extended periods of time. Ensure the camera is
turned off before inserting or removing batteries. Insert batteries
backwards correctly. Do not expose batteries to flame or
excessive heat. Do not immerse batteries in or expose to water.
Discontinue use immediately if you notice any changes in the
battery such as discoloration, deformation or leakage.
• Observe caution when operating the flash. Do not use the flash
close to anyone's eyes. This can cause temporary damage to
eyesight. Particular care should be observed when
photographing infants - keep the flash at a distance of at least
1 meter from infants' eyes.
