You must be at least 1 m (3 ft.) away from the faces of your subjects. Firing the flash too close to the
subject's eyes could cause a momentary loss of vision.
• Keep young children and infants away from the camera.
o
Always use and store the camera out of the reach of young children and infants to prevent the following
dangerous situations which could cause serious injury:
o
Becoming entangled in the camera strap, causing strangulation.
o
Accidentally swallowing the battery, cards or other small parts.
o
Accidentally firing the flash into their own eyes or those of another child.
o
Accidentally being injured by the moving parts of the camera.
• Do not look at the sun or strong lights with the camera.

CAUTION
• Stop using the camera immediately if you notice any unusual odors, noise, or smoke around it.
o
Never remove the batteries with bare hands, which may cause a fire or burn your hands.
• Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.
• Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject to extremely high temperatures.
• Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some circumstances, cause the camera to catch fire.
Do not use the charger if it is covered (such as a blanket). This could cause overheating, resulting in fire.
• Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-temperature burn.
o
When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can result in a low-temperature burn. Pay attention
to the following:
o
When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you hold on to the camera in this state, a low-
temperature burn may be caused.
• In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the camera's body may be lower
than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling the camera in cold
temperatures.
• Be careful with the strap.
o
Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects - and cause
serious damage.
Follow these important guidelines to prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, burning,
exploding, or causing electrical shocks or burns.
