For Your Safety  
For the safe and correct use of your camera, please read  
the following notes carefully. Our warranty may be void for  
damage caused by willful disregard of the instructions.  
The instruction alerts are to protect the user of the camera  
and people around him/her from possible damages and  
injuries. Caution and prohibition signs used in the booklet  
are shown on the right:  
This mark indicates that the disregard of the  
notes may lead to fatal or serious injuries or  
substantial material damages.  
Caution  
This mark with additional symbols indicates  
prohibition of certain actions or processes  
specified in the notes.  
Prohibition  
Never use a battery other than specified in the manual. Possible  
explosion and leakage could cause hazards and injuries.  
Never try to disassemble the camera. High-voltage circuitry inside  
the camera could cause an electric shock.  
When discarding a battery, insulate the poles with a piece of  
tape, etc. to prevent possible contact with metallic objects that  
could lead to ignition and/or explosion.  
Keep the camera out of the reach of infants and small children.  
Camera ユ s strap could wind itself round their necks, causing  
suffocation.  
Insert battery correctly in the camera. Wrong polarity (+/-) could  
cause explosion and/or leakage of battery, possibly leading to  
hazards and injuries.  
Store the camera away from moisture and dust. Do not store in  
high temperatures, as inside a closed car in summer, or close to a  
hot object.  
Keep removed battery out of children ユ s reach. If swallowed,  
consult the doctor immediately as electrolyte within may  
seriously harm digestive organs.  
Never operate the camera while driving a car, which could lead  
to a traffic accident.  
Should the camera (battery) get hot, emit smoke or smell as  
if burning, stop using it immediately and contact our service  
department. Continued use may cause fire or burn.  
When hanging the camera with the strap. Be careful the strap  
will not catch other objects, which could lead to injuries and  
hazards.  
Never throw in fire, short-circuit, break up or heat batteries, nor  
try to charge the ones not designed for recharge. This could lead  
to possible explosion and serious injuries.  
Should the camera dropped in water or water gets into it,  
remove the battery and contact our service department. Using it  
wet could cause fire or an electric shock.
