• Only the mains cables supplied must be used. The mains cables
must only be used for the supplied charger unit. Do not attempt
to use the mains cable or charger unit for other purposes.
MEMORY CARD
• Never remove the memory card during a data save or card reading
process. The camera must not be switched off or be subjected to
impact or vibrations while working.
• Do not open the cover/remove the memory card or the battery
from the camera while the status LED is lit, which indicates mem-
ory access. Data on the card may otherwise be destroyed and
camera malfunctions may occur.
• Do not drop or bend memory cards as this will cause damage and
result in the loss of stored data.
• Do not touch the connections on the reverse of the memory card
and keep them clean and dry.
• Keep memory cards out of the reach of children. Swallowing a
memory card may cause suffocation.
SENSOR
• Cosmic radiation (e.g. during flights) may cause pixel defects.
CARRY STRAP
• Carry straps are usually made of very robust material. You should
therefore keep it out of the reach of children. A carry strap is not
a toy and poses a strangulation risk.
• Use the carry strap only for its intended purpose on a camera
or on binoculars. Any other use poses the risk of injury and may
possibly result in damage to the carry strap and is therefore not
permitted.

SAFETY REMARKS
• Carry straps should also not be used for cameras/binoculars
during sports activities that pose a risk of entanglement (e.g.
when mountain climbing and similar outdoor activities).
TRIPOD
• When using a tripod, make sure it is standing securely and turn
the camera only by turning the tripod, not the actual camera.
Ensure that the tripod screw is hand-tightened only. Avoid trans-
porting the camera while the tripod is attached. You might injure
yourself or others and the camera could get damaged.
FLASH
• The use of incompatible flash units with your Leica Q3 may result
in irreparable damage to the camera and/or the flash unit.
