Safety precautions<br />

● Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase extra<br />

batteries. Recommended batteries may be difficult to obtain while traveling.<br />

● Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources. When you throw<br />

away dead batteries, be sure to cover their terminals and always observe<br />

local laws and regulations.<br />

Battery charger<br />

● Although battery charging is guaranteed when the air temperature is 0°C -<br />

40°C/32°F - 104°F, for best results, we recommend an air temperature between<br />

10°C - 30° C/50°F - 86°F.<br />

● If the red charge indicator blinks, the battery may be broken or not inserted<br />

correctly.<br />

● The battery may become warm while charging, but this is not a malfunction.<br />

● There may be static on other electronic equipment (such as a radio or<br />

television) if the battery charger is plugged in to the same outlet. If this occurs,<br />

plug the battery charger into a different outlet.<br />

LCD monitor<br />

● Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become fuzzy,<br />

resulting in a playback mode failure or damage to the monitor. If the monitor is<br />

damaged, be careful not to get any of the liquid crystals from the monitor in your<br />

mouth. If liquid crystals get on your limbs or clothes, wash them off.<br />

● A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a<br />

malfunction.<br />

● When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear<br />

zigzagged on the monitor. This is not a malfunction; It will be less noticeable in<br />

playback mode.<br />

● In places subject to low temperatures, the LCD monitor may take a long time to<br />

turn on or its color may change temporarily. When using the camera in<br />

extremely cold places, it is a good idea to occasionally place it in a warm place.<br />

A LCD monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will<br />

recover in normal temperatures.<br />

● The LCD monitor is made with high-precision technology. However, black<br />

spots or bright spots of light may appear on the LCD monitor. These spots<br />

may not be uniform in color and brightness depending on their<br />

characteristics or the angle at which you are viewing the monitor. This is<br />

not a malfunction.<br />
