.Charger Unit Handling Precautions
• The charger unit becomes slightly warm during charging. This is normal and does 
not indicate malfunction.
• Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when you are not using the charger 
unit.
• Never use detergent to clean the power cord (especially the plug).
• Never cover the charger unit with a blanket, etc. Doing so creates the risk of fire.
.Other Precautions
The camera becomes slightly warm during use. This is normal and does not indicate 
malfunction.
-
0Never plug the power cord into an outlet whose voltage rating is different from 
that marked on the power cord. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, 
and electric shock.
0Take care to protect the power cord against damage and breaking. Never place 
heavy objects onto the power cord, or expose it to intense heat. Doing so can 
damage the power cord, creating the risk of fire and electric shock.
0Never try to modify the power cord, or subject it to severe bending, twisting, or 
pulling. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.
0Never plug in or unplug the power cord while your hands are wet. Doing so 
creates the risk of electric shock.
0Do not plug the power cord into an outlet or extension cord that is shared by 
other devices. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.
0Should the power cord ever become damaged (to the point that internal wires 
are exposed or cut), immediately contact your original retailer or authorized 
CASIO authorized service center to request repair. Continued use of a damaged 
power cord creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.

							144Appendix
If the [CHARGE] lamp does not light red...
Charging cannot be performed because ambient temperature or the temperature of 
the charger is too hot or too cold. Wait until the camera returns to normal 
temperature. When the camera returns to a temperature where charging can be 
performed, the [CHARGE] lamp will light red.
If the [CHARGE] lamp flashes red...
The battery is faulty or the battery is loaded in the charger incorrectly. Remove the 
battery from the charger and check if its contacts are dirty. If contacts become dirty, 
wipe them clean with a dry cloth. When experiencing charging problems, also check 
to make sure that the power cord is not disconnected from the power outlet or 
charger.
1.Open the battery cover and remove the 
current battery.
With the monitor screen side of the camera 
facing upwards, slide the stopper in the 
direction indicated by the arrow in the 
illustration. After the battery pops out, pull it the 
rest of the way out of the camera.
2.Load a new battery.
.Precautions during Use
• Operation provided by a battery under cold conditions is always less than operation 
under normal temperatures. This is due to the characteristics of the battery, not the 
camera.
• Charge the battery in an area where the temperature is within the range of 5°C to 
35°C (41°F to 95°F). Outside this temperature range charging can take longer than 
normal or even fail.
• If a battery provides only very limited operation following a full charge, it probably 
means the battery has reached the end of its service life. Replace the battery with a 
new one.

Charging
If problems continue to occur after you perform the above steps, it could mean that 
the battery is faulty. Contact your nearest CASIO authorized service center.

.Storage Precautions
• Storing the battery for a long time while it is charged can cause deterioration of 
battery characteristics. If you do not plan to use a battery for some time, fully use 
up its charge before storing it.
• Always remove the battery from the camera when you are not using it. A battery left 
in the camera can discharge and go dead, which will require some time to charge 
when you need to use the camera.
• Store batteries in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or lower).
.Precautions during Use
• The bundled charger is designed for operation with any power supply in the range 
of 100V to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. Note, however, that the shape of the power cord 
plug depends on each country or geographic area. Before taking the camera and 
charger along on a trip, check with travel agent about the power supply 
requirements in your destination(s).
• Do not connect the charger to a power supply through a voltage converter or 
similar device. Doing so can lead to malfunction.
.Extra Batteries
• Taking along extra fully charged batteries (NP-60) is recommended while on a trip 
in order to avoid not being able to shoot images due to the battery going dead.
Using the Camera in another Country 
						

							146Appendix
See page 14 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a 
memory card.
Press the memory card and then release it. This will cause it 
to pop out of the memory card slot slightly. Pull the card out 
the rest of the way and then insert another one.
• Never remove a card from the camera while the back 
lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the image 
save operation to fail and even damage the memory card.
.Using a Memory Card
• SD memory cards and SDHC memory cards have a 
write protect switch. Use the switch when you need to 
guard against accidentally deleting data. Note, 
however, if you write protect an SD memory card you 
must then turn write protection off whenever you want 
to record to it, format it, or delete any of its images.
• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during 
image playback, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 132). 
However, it is recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards 
whenever using the camera far away from the home or office.
• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it 
loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory 
card is recommended.
• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to 
become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data 
on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.)
.Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, you may 
experience problems saving high-quality (UHQ, UHQ Wide, HQ, and HQ Wide) 
movies. Use of certain types of memory cards increase the time it takes to record 
movies, which can cause movie frames to be lost. This condition is indicated by »
 
and Y
 flashing on the monitor screen. Use of a memory card with a maximum 
transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended.

							147Appendix
.Discarding or Transferring Ownership of a Memory Card or the 
Camera
The format and delete functions of the camera do not actually delete files from the 
memory card. The original data remains on the card. Note that responsibility for the 
data on a memory card lies with you. The following procedures are recommended 
whenever you discard a memory card or the camera, or if you transfer ownership to 
another party.
• When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use 
commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the 
memory card.
• When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially 
available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it.
• Use the format function (page 132) to completely delete the data in built-in memory 
before discarding or transferring ownership of the camera.
Computer system requirements are different for each of the applications. Be sure to 
check the requirements for the particular application you are trying to use. Note that 
the values provided here are minimum requirements for running each application. 
Actual requirements are greater, depending on the number of images and the sizes of 
the images being handled.
