Casio Exilim Zoom EX Z22 User Manual

							111Appendix
.Data Error Precautions
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision digital components. Any of the 
following creates the risk of corruption of data in camera memory.
• Removing the battery or memory card while the camera is performing some 
operation
• Removing the battery or memory card while the back lamp is flashing green after 
turning off the camera
• Disconnecting the USB cable while communication is in progress
• Using a battery that is low
• Other abnormal operations
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to appear on the monitor 
screen (page 131). Perform the action indicated by the message that appears.
.Operating Environment
• Operating Temperature: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F)
• Operating Humidity: 10 to 85% (non condensation)
• Do not place the camera in any of the following locations.
– In an area exposed to direct sunlight, or large amounts of moisture or dust
– Near an air conditioner or in other areas subjected to extreme temperature or 
humidity
– Inside of a motor vehicle on a hot day, or in an area subjected to strong vibration
.Condensation
Sudden and extreme temperature changes, such as when the camera is moved from 
the outdoors on a cold winter day into a warm room, can cause water droplets called 
“condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera, which creates 
the risk of malfunction. To prevent condensation from forming seal the camera in a 
plastic bag before changing locations. Then leave the bag sealed to allow the air 
inside to naturally change to the same temperature as the air in the new location. 
After that, remove the camera from the bag and open the battery cover for a few 
hours.

.Lens
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can 
scratch the lens surface and cause malfunction.
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a 
slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the characteristics of 
lenses, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
.Caring for your camera
• Never touch the lens or flash window with your fingers. Finger smudges, dirt, and 
other foreign matter on the lens or flash window can interfere with proper operation 
of the camera. Use a blower or other means to keep the lens and flash window free 
of dirt and dust, and wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• To clean the camera, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
.Old Rechargeable Battery Handling Precautions
• Insulate the positive and negative terminals with tape, etc.
• Do not peel the covering off of the battery.
• Do not try to take the battery apart.

.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.

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

.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.
.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.

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 104). 
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 pr ocessing speeds. In particular, you may 
experience problems saving high-quality (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. Th is 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.
. Discarding or Transferring Ownership of a Memory Card or the 
Camera
The format and delete functions of this camera just modify file management 
information of memory card and/or camera main memory. They do not actually 
modify the data itself. Note that management of your data is entirely your 
responsibility. To ensure data security , the following actions are recommended 
whenever you discard or transfer ownership of a memory card or the camera.
• When discarding a memory card and/or the  camera, either physically destroy them 
or completely wipe out all of their data  using commercially available software, etc.
• When transferring ownership of a memory card and/or the camera, completely 
wipe out all of their data using commercia lly available software, etc., and then use
