FOR SAFE USE OF YOUR CAMERA

Although we have carefully designed this camera for safe operation, please be sure to follow precautions

given in this page.

WARNING This mark indicates precautions that if not followed, could result in serious

injury to the operator.

CAUTION This mark indicates precautions that, if not followed, could result in minor or

medium injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.

WARNING

• The electric circuits inside the camera contain high

voltage working parts. Never attempt to disassemble

the camera yourself.

• Never touch internal parts of the camera if they

become exposed from dropping the camera or for

some other reason, as there is danger of electric

shock.

• Wrapping the strap around your neck is dangerous.

Make sure that small children do not get the strap

caught around their neck.

• Be sure to store batteries out of the reach of children.

Seek medical assistance immediately if accidentally

swallowed.

CAUTION

• Do not use the flash near anyone’s eyes, as it may hurt

them. Be particularly careful with the flash around the

infants.

• Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the battery.

Also, do not dispose of the battery in fire, as it may

explode.

• Remove the battery from the camera immediately if it

becomes hot or begins to smoke. Be careful not to

burn yourself during removal.

PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR CAMERA

Precautions when taking pictures

• Do not use the camera where it may come in contact

with rain, water or any other liquid, because the cam-

era is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should the

camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any other

liquid, wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth.

• Do not drop the camera or allow it to hit a solid object.

If the camera suffers a severe shock or impact, take it

to a Pentax service center for inspection.

• Be careful not to subject the camera to strong vibra-

tions, shock or pressure. Use a cushion to protect the

camera when carrying it in a motorcycle, car, boat, etc.

• Condensation on the interior or the exterior of the cam-

era may be extremely harmful to the camera mecha-

nism as it may cause rust and/or corrosion.

Furthermore, if the camera is taken from warm tem-

perature to a subfreezing one or vice versa, the forma-

tion of icelets may cause damage. In such a case, put

the camera into a case or plastic bag so that any

change in temperature difference is minimized. Do not

remove it from the bag until temperature has stabilized.

Precautions for storage

• Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in

places where temperature and humidity are high such

as in a car.

• Do not store the camera in a closet with mothballs or in

a case where chemicals are handled. Store it in a place

with good air circulation to prevent fungus growth.

Precautions for proper care

• Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accumu-

lated on the lens or the viewfinder window.

• Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or

benzene to clean the camera. To clean the external

camera surfaces, - but not glass surfaces; using a dry

or silicone-treated cloth is recommended.

Other precautions

• The temperature range at which this camera functions

properly is 50˚ to -10˚C (122˚F to 14˚F).

English

• To maintain optimum performance, it is recommended

that the camera be inspected every one or two years.

If the camera has not been used for an extended peri-

od, or is being prepared for an important photographic

session, it is recommended that you have the camera

inspected or test shoot with it.

• The PENTAX warranty provided only for the repair of

defects in materials or workmanship. Damage of any

kind cannot be repaired at no charge under the term of

the warranty. If the difficulty is caused as a direct result

of the product being used in conditions as out lined in

the other operation contrary to the instructions outlined

in this manual, charges will be assessed or a repair

quotation will be provided.

• Do not apply force to the zoom lens; do not place the

camera with lens facing downward.

• Dirt, mud, sand, moisture, toxic gas, water, salt water,

etc., penetrating the inside of the camera may cause

damage or render it inoperable.

Damage of any kind will not be repaired under the

terms of warranty and charges may be assessed.

Therefore, handle the camera with great care.

PRECAUTIONS FOR

BATTERY USAGE

• Misuse of a battery can cause hazards such as leak-

age, overheating, explosions, etc. The battery should

be inserted with the “+” and “-” sides facing correctly.

• Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the battery.

Also do not dispose of the battery in a fire, as it may

explode.

• Battery performance may be temporarily hindered in

low temperatures, but will recover in normal tempera-

tures.

• Keep a spare battery on hand for replacement conve-

nience when shooting outdoors or while traveling.

• When the camera is in a bag, make sure the main

switch is set at the OFF position. Otherwise, battery

power may be wasted if the shutter release button is

accidentally pushed.

• Be sure to keep the battery out of the reach of children.

Fit the strap on the camera as illustrated. (Fig. 2)

• Use the illustrated Apart of the strap for opening the

battery chamber cover, adjusting the data on the Date

model, or pushing the mid-roll rewind button to rewind

a film before exposing all frames.

Ensure that the power is off before replacing the

battery.

1. Open the battery chamber cover by pulling the

cover lock in the direction of the arrow with the

strap clamp’s protrusion. (Fig. 3-1)

2. Insert one lithium battery (CR123A or the equiva-

lent) with the plus/minus (+/–) sides matching the

indications in the battery compartment. (Fig. 3-2)

3. Close the battery chamber cover. Ensure that the

cover is locked with a click. (Fig. 3-3)

Approx. 15 rolls when 50% of the time uses flash (using

the CR123A battery and under Pentax testing condi-

tions). Actual battery life/performance may vary drasti-

cally depending on usage of Power Zoom, Flash and

external conditions such as temperature and freshness

of the battery.

English

1. Keep the camera as still as possible and steady it

against your face. Depress the shutter release

button gently. (If too much force is applied, the

ble, stationary object such as a wall. (Fig. 5)

2. When using the flash with the camera positioned

vertically, hold the camera so that the flash is

above the lens.

3. Make sure not to obstruct the autofocus window,

lens, light sensor window or the built-in flash with

your fingers, hair or other object.
