E. Cautions on Use
z
Firing the flash consecutively may heat the firing unit. Do not fire it consecutively more than necessary.
z
Do not fire the flash near eyes, or view the sun or other strong light directly through the viewfinder. It could cause visual
impairment (particularly for infants).
z
Do not fire the flash near the driver of a vehicle to avoid causing accidents.
z
The batteries may become hot after extended use. Touching the batteries immediately after use could result in burns to
your fingers.
z
Before connecting the (optional) AC adaptor, make sure the camera is off.
z
If the LCD monitor or panel is exposed to sunlight, they may become washed out and images may become hard to
view.
z
The LCD monitor and panel may contain some pixels that do not remain lit up continually in part or at all. Also, the
brightness may become uneven because of the characteristics of LCDs. These are not failures.
z
Do not force the side cover.
z
Do not lift the camera by the side cover.
z
While you are carrying the camera, be careful not to hit it against other objects.
z
In cold climates, if the camera has water droplets adhering to its surface, they may freeze. Using the camera with water
droplets frozen may cause it to fail. So, do not leave the camera as it is, with ice adhering to the camera.
z
In an environment where the temperature changes suddenly, condensation may occur in the camera, resulting in
troubles such as fogging of the glass surface or malfunctions of the camera. If this occurs, place the camera in a bag to
slow the temperature change as much as possible. Take it out of the bag after the temperature difference from the
atmosphere has decreased to a fairly small amount.
Conditions in which condensation may easily occur
• When the camera is moved to an environment where the temperature differs greatly.
• In humid places
• In a room immediately after being heated, or when the camera is exposed directly to cooled air from an air-
conditioner or another similar appliance
