About the Camera

Warning
• Do not attempt to take the camera apart or modify the camera. High voltages
are present within the camera, and there is a danger of electric shock if the
camera is taken apart.
• If the inside of the camera should become exposed as a result of,
for example, the camera being dropped, please do not under any
circumstances touch such exposed portions, as there is a danger
of receiving an electric shock.
• Wrapping the strap of the camera around your neck is also dangerous.
Please take care that small children do not hang the strap around their necks.
• If any irregularities occur during use, such as smoke or a strange odor,
stop use immediately, remove the battery or the AC adapter, and contact
your nearest PENTAX Service Center. Continuing to use the product can
cause a fire or electric shock.
Caution
• Do not place your finger on the flash when it is discharging as there is a risk
of burns.
• Do not discharge the flash while it is touching your clothing as there is a risk
of discoloring.
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as
there is a risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long
periods of time.

not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin, in your eyes, or in your mouth.
