Precautions when handling the camera

00E Adam .book Page 7 Wednesday, October 27, 2004 6:21 PM

Read this first

For safe use of this product

•Avoid prolonged contact with the camera, AC adapter, and cradle while charging. The

camera and cradle become hot during charging. Also the camera becomes hot during

continued use with the specified AC adapter. Prolonged contact with the camera during use

could result in low temperature burns.

•Do not use or store the camera for a long time in an environment where there is a lot of

dust, dampness, smoke, or steam. This could result in fire or electric shock.

•Do not cover the flash with your fingers when using the flash. Do not touch the flash during

firing or after successive firing. Failure to do so could result in burns.

•Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera. Such action could lead to electric

shock or injury.

•Do not let any water or other foreign objects get inside the camera. Should the camera be

dropped in water, or water get into the internal parts, it could result in fire or electric shock.

Remove the battery immediately and contact your nearest dealer or Olympus service center.

Caution

•Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell or noise, stop using the camera

immediately. Remove the battery taking care to avoid burns, and contact your nearest dealer

or Olympus service center. Failure to do so could result in fire or burns. (Remove the battery

outdoors, away from anything combustible, and avoid touching it with your bare hands.)

•Do not operate the camera with wet hands. This could result in electric shock.

•Do not touch the cradle’s camera connector. If you accidentally press the metal cover of the

cradle’s camera connector, the contacts of the connector may be revealed. Should you touch

the contacts, it could result in corrosion of the contacts.

•Be careful with the strap when carrying the camera as it can easily catch on stray objects,

causing injury or damage.

For safe use of this product

•Do not leave the camera in places of high temperature. Doing so could result in

deterioration of parts or fire. Do not cover the AC adapter or cradle with anything such as a

cloth or blanket when in use. This may cause overheating, resulting in fire.

•Use only the specified AC adapter. Use of an unauthorized adapter may result in damage or

malfunction of the camera or power source, leading to accidents. Olympus is not responsible

for any damages arising from use of an unauthorized adapter.

•Do not damage the power cord. Do not pull the power cord nor attempt to extend it. Always

disconnect the AC adapter by pulling the plug not the cable. Discontinue use of the AC adapter

immediately in the event of the following, and contact your nearest dealer or Olympus service

center.

If the plug or cable is hot, there is a smell of burning, or smoke is emitted.

If the plug or cable is damaged or ruptured, or the plug connection is faulty.

•Avoid touching the metal parts on the outside of the camera for long periods of time.

•The camera becomes hot during continued use. Prolonged contact with the metal parts may

result in low temperature burns.

•When exposed to low temperature, the temperature of the camera exterior will also drop.

This may cause injury by the skin adhering to the camera. To avoid low temperature burns

or injury, wear gloves when handling the camera.

•Do not let any foreign objects get stuck between the multi-swing display and camera

body. Be particularly careful when carrying the camera in your bag. If a thin object such as a

note book or card get stuck, the camera may be damaged, or the camera may accidentally turn

on and consume battery power.

For safe use of this product

•This camera contains precision electronic parts. Avoid using or leaving the camera for long

periods of time in the following places as this could result in failure or malfunction.

Places of high temperature and high humidity or where the temperature and humidity

fluctuate greatly, such as in direct sunlight, on the beach in summer, in a car with the

windows closed, or next to air conditioning equipment or a humidifier

Places where there is a lot of sand, dust or dirt

Near fire

Near water

Places that are subject to considerable vibration

•Avoid dropping or hitting the camera or subjecting it to severe vibration or impact.

•If you hold the cradle upside down with the camera set, the camera may fall out of the cradle.

•Do not pick up by the camera only when it is set on the cradle.

•Keep the camera away from things susceptible to damage from magnetism such as credit

cards, magnetic commuter passes, and floppy disks. The data of those things could be

corrupted and no longer usable.

•Do not take pictures of, or leave the camera with the lens aimed directly at, the sun. Doing so

may cause color-fade or burn-in on the CCD.

•If the camera is subjected to a sudden temperature change, for example by bringing it from a

cold place into a warm room, condensation may form on the inside. Place the camera in a

plastic bag until the temperature difference has subsided.

•If the camera is left unused for a long period of time, mold may form, causing failure or

malfunction. We recommend that you check that the camera is still working properly before

using it.
