228 i Appendix
• Avoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places subject
to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the dashboard
or trunk (boot) of a car.
• Do not use the camera in such a way that would cause it to
exceed the rating of the power outlet or wiring. Do not use if the
power cord or plug are damaged, or if not fully plugged into the
outlet.
• Do not use in locations with poor ventilation.
The above-mentioned can cause leakage, overheating or explosion,
resulting in fire, burns or other injuries. High temperatures may also
cause deformation of the casing.
• When not using the camera for extended periods of time,
remove the battery from the camera or battery charger and
store the equipment in a safe place.
If the batteries are left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage
may occur.
• Do not operate the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck to
the surface of the flash.
• Be careful not to cover the flash with your fingers or clothing
when shooting.
The flash may be damaged and emit smoke or noise. The resulting
heat build-up could damage the flash.
• Do not touch the surface of the flash after taking several
pictures in rapid succession.
Doing so could result in burns.
