manufacturer.

Precautions

General precautions

xDo not use or store the product in dusty, dirty, or sandy areas,

as its components may be damaged.

xDo not store the product in a hot environment. High

temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage

batteries and warp or melt certain plastics.

xDo not store the product in cold areas. When the product

warms up to its normal temperature, moisture can form inside,

which may damage the electronic circuits.

xDo not attempt to open the casing or attempt your own repairs.

High-voltage internal components create the risk of electric

shock when exposed.

xDo not drop or knock the product. Rough handling may

damage the internal components.

xDo not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong

detergents to clean the product. Wipe the product with a

slightly damp soft cloth.

xDo not fire the white LED light while it is too close to the

subject's eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye

damage if it is fired too close to the eyes. When using the

white LED light, the camera should be at least one meter from

the eyes of the subject.

xDo not open battery cover while an image is being recorded.

Doing so will not only make storage of the current image

impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored

in file.

xIf the product or any of its accessories are not working

properly, take them to your nearest qualified service center.

The personnel there will assist you and if necessary, arrange

for the product to be repaired.

xTest for proper operation before using the camera.

Notes on the LCD Screen

Be very careful to ensure the fluid contained in the LCD screen does

not escape if the screen becomes cracked or damaged. If this occurs,

follow these steps:

xIf the fluids make contact with skin, wipe it with a clean cloth

then rinse with a large amount of water.

xIf the fluid makes contact with eyes, wash eyes with clean

water for at least 15 minutes and go to the hospital as soon as

possible.

xIf the fluid is swallowed, first rinse mouth with water, then

drink a large amount of water and induce vomiting. Go to the

hospital as soon as possible.

Operation conditions

xThis camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging from

0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).

xDo not use or keep the camera in the following areas:

- In areas subject to direct sunlight

- In areas subject to high humidity or dust

- Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject to

temperature extremes

- Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the sun.

- In areas subject to strong vibration

Power supply

xUse only the type of battery that came with your camera.

Using any other type of battery may damage the equipment

and invalidate the warranty.

vii

xEnsure the battery is inserted correctly. Inserting the battery

incorrectly can cause damage to the product and possibly start

a fire.

xRemove the battery to avoid the fluid leakage if the camera is

not going to be used for a long time.

xIf the battery is crushed or damaged, remove it immediately to

avoid the battery fluid leakage and abnormal expansion.
