Caution
• Never try to disassemble or short the batteries. Also, do not dispose of the
batteries in a fire, as they may explode.
• Do not charge any batteries other than rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. The
batteries could explode or catch fire. Batteries for use with this camera
other than Ni-MH batteries cannot be charged.
• Do not place your finger on the flash when it is discharging as there is a
risk of burns.
• Do not discharge the flash while it is touching your clothing as there is a
risk of discoloring of the clothing.
• If any leakage from the batteries should come in contact with your eyes, do
not rub them. Flush your eyes with clean water and get medical attention
immediately.
• If any leakage from the batteries should come in contact with skin or
clothes, wash the affected areas thoroughly with water.
• Remove the batteries from the camera immediately if they become hot or
emit smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as
there is a risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long
periods of time.
• Should the liquid crystal display be damaged, be careful of glass
fragments. Also, be careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin
or in your eyes or in your mouth.
• Depending on your inherent factors or physical condition, the use of the
camera may cause itching, rashes or blisters. In case of any abnormality,
stop using the camera and get medical attention immediately.
• This camera uses two AA alkaline, AA lithium, AA Ni-MH or AA nickel
manganese batteries. Do not use batteries other than those specified here.
Using some other type of battery may cause the camera to function poorly,
or the batteries may rupture or cause a fire.
• AA alkaline, AA lithium and AA nickel manganese batteries cannot be
recharged. Do not try to take the batteries apart. The batteries may rupture
or leak if you try to charge them or take them apart.
• Do not remove the external seal of the battery. If the seal is removed, the
battery may short and may cause a fire, rupture, leak or heat.
• When replacing the batteries, do not combine different brands, types or
capacities. Also, do not combine old batteries with new ones. Doing so may
cause the batteries to rupture or cause a fire.
• Do not insert the batteries with the positive (+) and negative (–) poles in the
wrong orientation. Doing so may cause the batteries to rupture or cause a fire.
