Cautions for Use
Keep the digital camera away from 
magnetized equipment (such as a 
microwave oven, TV, video game 
equipment, etc.).
• If you use the digital camera on or 
near a TV, images and sounds may 
be disturbed due to electromagnetic 
wave radiation.
• Do not use the digital camera near a
cell phone because doing so may 
cause noise to adversely affect the 
images and sounds.
• By strong magnetic fields created
by speakers or large motors, 
recorded data may be damaged, or 
images may be distorted.
• Electromagnetic wave radiation
generated by a microprocessor may 
adversely affect the digital camera, 
causing the disturbance of images 
and sounds.
• If the digital camera is affected by
magnetically charged equipment 
and does not function properly, turn 
the camera off and detach the 
battery or AC adaptor and then 
connect the battery or AC adaptor 
again. Thereafter, turn the camera 
on.
Do not use the digital camera near 
radio transmitters or high-voltage 
lines.
• If you record near radio transmitters 
or high-voltage lines, recorded 
images or sounds may be adversely 
affected.
Do not spray insecticides or 
volatile chemicals onto the digital 
camera.
• If the digital camera is sprayed with 
such chemicals, the camera body
may be deformed and the surface 
finish may peel off.
• Do not keep rubber or plastic
products in contact with the digital 
camera for a long period of time.
When you use the digital camera 
on a beach or similar place, do not 
let sand or fine dust get into the 
camera.
• Sand or dust may damage the 
digital camera or card. (Care should 
be taken when inserting and 
removing the card)
When you use your digital camera 
in a rainy or snowy day or on a 
beach, make sure that no water 
enters inside the digital camera.
• Water may cause the digital camera 
or card to malfunction. (Irreparable 
failure may occur)
• If sea water splashes onto the
digital camera, wet a soft cloth with 
tap water, wring it well, and use it to 
wipe the camera body carefully. 
Then, wipe it again thoroughly with 
a soft dry cloth.
Do not use the digital camera for 
surveillance purpose or other 
business use.
• If you use the digital camera for a 
long period of time, the internal 
temperature increases and, 
consequently, this may cause 
malfunction.
• The digital camera is not intended
for business use.
Do not use benzine, thinner or 
alcohol for cleaning the digital 
camera.
• The camera body may be deformed 
and the surface finish may peel off.
