For Your Safety
• Do not short or disassemble the
battery.
• Do not expose the battery to flame
or to excessive heat.
• Do not immerse in or expose to
water.
• Do not transport or store with met-
al objects such as necklaces or hair-
pins.
• Batteries are prone to leakage
when fully discharged. To avoid
damage to the product, be sure to
remove the battery when no
charge remains.
• When the battery is not in use, at-
tach the terminal cover and store
in a cool place.
• Immediately after use, or when the
product is used on battery power
for an extended period, the battery
may become hot. Before removing
the battery, turn the camera off
and allow the battery to cool.
• Discontinue use immediately should
you notice any changes in the bat-
tery, such as discoloration or defor-
mation.
Use appropriate cables
When connecting cables to the in-
put and output jacks, use only the

pliance with product regulations.

Keep out of reach of children
Particular care should be taken to
prevent infants from putting the
battery or other small parts into
their mouths.
Removing memory cards
Memory cards may become hot
during use. Observe due caution
when removing memory cards
from the camera.
CD-ROMs
The CD-ROMs on which the soft-
ware and manuals are distributed

Observe caution when operat-
ing the flash
Using the flash close to your sub-
ject's eyes could cause temporary
visual impairment. Particular care
should be observed if photograph-
ing infants, when the flash should
be no less than one meter (39")
from the subject.
Avoid contact with liquid crys-
tal
Should the monitor break, care
should be taken to avoid injury due
to broken glass and to prevent liq-
uid crystal from the monitor touch-
ing the skin or entering the eyes or
mouth.
