CAUTIONS CONCERNING THE DOCKING STATION AND AC ADAPTOR/CHARGER
DANGER
k Do not recharge a battery pack other than the specified
battery pack
i Recharging a dry-cell battery or other type of rechargeable
battery may cause excess heat, combustion, or leakage,
and cause a fire, injuries, burns, or damage to nearby
objects.
k Concerning the power cord
i The voltage rating for the power cord supplied with this
camera conforms to the standards of the country in which
the camera was sold.
k Do not get the docking station or AC adaptor/charger wet
i Make sure they do not get wet, as doing so may cause a fire
or electric shock.
i Do not use them in a bathroom.
i If the docking station or AC adaptor/charger gets wet,
immediately unplug it from the power outlet and remove the
battery pack. Then contact the place of purchase. If used
while wet, it may cause a fire, electric shock, or an accident.
WARNING
k Cautions when plugging in the power cord
i Securely plug the power cord all the way into the power
outlet. If the docking station or AC adaptor/charger is used
with the power cord not fully plugged in, heat may be
generated and cause a fire.
i Do not use if the power cord is damaged or cannot be
correctly plugged into the power outlet. Using in this
condition may cause a fire or electric shock.
i Do not allow dust, etc., to build up on the power cord or
power outlet. A build-up of dust may cause a short circuit or
generate heat and cause a fire. Use a dry cloth to remove
dust or dirt build-up after unplugging the cord from the
power outlet.
i When unplugging the power cord, be sure to hold the plug
part and slowly pull it out of the power outlet. Pulling the
cord portion may damage the power cord and cause a fire
or electric shock.
k Do not damage the power cord
i Do not place heavy objects on the power cord. Do not place
the power cord near a heat source. Do not excessively bend
the power cord, modify it, or secure it with staples. Doing so
may damage the power cord and cause a fire or electric
shock.
i If the power cord is damaged, or if it does not plug properly
into the docking station, AC adaptor/charger or wall outlet,
contact the place of purchase.
k Cautions concerning the power cord
i Do not leave the power cord plugged into an electrical outlet
while the other end is not plugged into the AC adaptor/
charger. The loose end can cause electrocution if touched
with wet hands or if handled by children.
i Use only the supplied power cord. If a different power cord
is used, it may be rated for a different current load, and that
may cause a fire.
i The supplied power cord is for exclusive use with the AC
adaptor/charger supplied with your camera. Do not use it
with other devices, as doing so may cause a fire or electric
shock.
i Do not use a bundled power cord, as the heat generated
may cause a fire.
k Do not touch the power cord plug with wet hands
i Doing so may cause an electric shock.
k Do not place on an unstable surface
i If may fall, resulting in damage or injury.
i If it falls and the body is damaged, remove the battery pack
and contact the place of purchase. If used while damaged,
it may cause a fire, electric shock, or other damage.
k Other cautions
i Use only the supplied or specified docking station and AC
adaptor/charger with your camera.
i If a docking station or AC adaptor/charger other than the
ones specified is used, it may damage the camera and
cause a fire or electric shock.
Use the supplied or specified docking station and AC
adaptor/charger only with the specified camera. Do not
connect to other cameras, as doing so may result in
damage.
k Cautions during use and storage
i Do not use or store close to a heat source (close to a stove
or heater) or leave it exposed to direct sunlight, as doing so
may result in defective operation or damage.
Operating environment:
i Temperature 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F) (charging)
–20 to 60°C (–4 to 140°F) (storage)
i Humidity
20 to 80% (charging and storage)
i To avoid the danger of possible fire, be sure to remove the
power cord from the power outlet before leaving home for a
trip or if otherwise the devices will not be used for a long
time.
CAUTIONS CONCERNING THE CARD
k Cautions concerning the card
i Immediately after use, the card will be very hot. Before
removing the card, turn off the camera and wait for the
temperature to cool down.
i Keep out of the reach of children. Young children may put
the card in their mouth and choke or cause some other
unexpected injury or accident.
k Cautions when handling the cards
i The cards are precision devices. Do not bend, drop, or
subject them to strong forces or shocks.
i Avoid using or storing the cards in places with extremely
high or low temperatures, subject to direct sunlight, in a
completely closed vehicle, near air conditioners or heaters,
or in humid or dusty locations.
i Avoid using or storing the cards in locations where strong
static electrical charges or electrical noise can be easily
generated.
i Do not allow the edges of the cards to become
contaminated with foreign materials. Gently wipe away any
contamination with a soft, dry cloth.
i Do not carry the cards in trouser pockets, as the cards may
become damaged when you sit down or make other
movements that may apply force.
i Before using a new card or a card that was used in other
