Health and safety information
• Avoid using or storing your camera in dusty, dirty, humid, or poorly-
ventilated areas to prevent damage to moving parts and internal
components.
• Remove the batteries from your camera when storing it for an
extended period of time. Installed batteries may leak or corrode over
time and cause serious damage to your camera.
• Prolonged usage of the camera may overheat the battery and raise
the internal temperature of the camera. If the camera stops operating,
remove the battery and allow it to cool down.
• Protect your camera from sand and dirt when using it on beaches or
in other similar areas.
• Protect your camera from impact, rough handling, and excessive
vibration to avoid serious damage.
• Exercise caution when connecting cables or adapters and installing
batteries and memory cards. Forcing the connectors, improperly
connecting cables, or improperly installing batteries and memory
cards can damage ports, connectors, and accessories.
• Do not insert foreign objects into any of your camera’s compartments,
slots, or access points. Damage due to improper use may not be
covered by your warranty.
• Do not swing your camera by the strap. This may cause injury to
yourself or others.
• Do not paint your camera, as paint can clog moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
• Paint or metal on the outside of the camera may cause allergic
reactions, itchy skin, eczema, or swelling for people with sensitive
skin. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop using the camera
immediately and consult a doctor.
Protect batteries, chargers, and memory cards from
damage
• Avoid exposing batteries or memory cards to very cold or very hot
temperatures (below 0 ºC/32 ºF or above 40 ºC/104 ºF). Extreme
temperatures can reduce the charging capacity of your batteries and
can cause memory cards to malfunction.
• Prevent batteries from making contact with metal objects, as this can
create a connection between the + and – terminals of your battery
and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage. Also, this may
cause fire or electric shock.
• Prevent memory cards from making contact with liquids, dirt, or
foreign substances. If dirty, wipe the memory card clean with a soft
cloth before inserting in your camera.
• Do not allow liquids, dirt, or foreign substances to come in contact
with the memory card slot. Doing so may cause the camera to
malfunction.
• Insert the memory card in the correct direction. Inserting a memory
card in the wrong direction may damage your camera and memory
card.
• Turn off the camera when inserting or removing the memory card.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject memory cards to heavy impact or
pressure.
• Do not use memory cards that have been formatted by other cameras
or by a computer. Format the memory card with your camera.
• Never use a damaged charger, battery, or memory card.
