Operating Precautions
Precautions Pertaining to the Battery
Caution:
• Charge only with specified charger.
• Charge the Battery within an ambient temperature range of 50 F (10 °C) and 86 F
(30 °C).
• The Battery may be warm after charging or just after use. This is normal.
• Do not use an insufficiently charged or worn out Battery.
• If charging is done in extreme low or high temperatures, Battery charge time increases.
Safety precautions:
• Do not place the Battery near, or dispose of in fire.
• Do not directly connect (short circuit) the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals.
• Never attempt to disassemble or reassemble the Battery.
To avoid damage to the Battery:
• Do not drop or jar the Battery.
• Use the Battery with specified models only.
• If the Battery is used in extremely high temperatures, a safety device will automatically
prevent operation.
To ensure longer battery life:
• While not in use, remove Battery from the unit and AC Adaptor and store in a cool,
dark, dry place. If you leave the Battery in the unit or on the AC Adaptor, the Battery
will no longer be rechargeable.
• Keep the Battery terminals clean.
Card Data Protection
(Refer to page 10 for details on compatible cards.)
• Do not unplug the AC adaptor or disconnect the USB cable connecting a PC while
this unit is in operation.
• Do not remove the card while it is being accessed.
• Be sure the card does not contain important data before formatting it. Formatting
irreversibly deletes all data stored on the card.
• Do not touch the terminals on the back of the Memory Card.
• Electrical interference, electrostatic discharges and malfunctions of the unit or card
may all result in damage to the card or data loss. It is recommended that any
important data also be backed up on a PC.
• Stored data should be periodically backed up as a protection against data
corruption, data loss or device malfunction. Please note that our company shall not
accept any liability for damage or loss of stored data.
• SD Memory Cards, Memory Sticks, Smart Media Cards and some CF Cards (when
a PC Card Slot is used) include a write-protect switch. When this switch is set to the
"LOCK" position, it will not be possible to write data to or delete data from the
Memory Card or format Memory Card.
