Firing the fl ash too close to the subject’s eyes could cause a momentary loss of vision. • Keep young children and infants away from the camera. • Always use and store the camera out of the reach of young children and infants to prevent the following dangerous situations which could cause serious injury: • Becoming entangled in the camera strap, causing strangulation. • Accidentally swallowing the battery, cards or other small parts. • Accidentally fi ring the fl ash into their own eyes or those of another child. • Accidentally being injured by the moving parts of the camera. • Do not look at the sun or strong lights with the camera. • Do not use or store the camera in dusty or humid places. • Do not cover the fl ash with a hand while fi ring. • Use SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards or Eye-Fi cards only. Never use other types of cards. If you accidently insert another type of card into the camera, contact an authorized distributor or service center. Do not try to remove the card by force. • If you fi nd that the USB-AC adapter is extremely hot or notice any unusual odors, noise, or smoke around it, unplug the power plug from wall outlet immediately and stop using it. Then, contact an authorized distributor or service center. CAUTION • Stop using the camera immediately if you notice any unusual odors, noise, or smoke around it. • Never remove the batteries with bare hands, which may cause a fi re or burn your hands. • Never hold or operate the camera with wet hands. • Do not leave the camera in places where it may be subject to extremely high temperatures. • Doing so may cause parts to deteriorate and, in some circumstances, cause the camera to catch fi re. Do not use the USB-AC adapter if it is covered (such as a blanket). This could cause overheating, resulting in fi re. • Handle the camera with care to avoid getting a low-temperature burn. • When the camera contains metal parts, overheating can result in a low-temperature burn. Pay attention to the following: • When used for a long period, the camera will get hot. If you hold on to the camera in this state, a low-temperature burn may be caused. • In places subject to extremely cold temperatures, the temperature of the camera’s body may be lower than the environmental temperature. If possible, wear gloves when handling the camera in cold temperatures. • Be careful with the strap. • Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects and cause serious damage. • To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product, never leave the camera in the places listed below, no matter if in use or storage: • Places where temperatures and/or humidity are high or go through extreme changes. Direct sunlight, beaches, locked cars, or near other heat sources (stove, radiator, etc.) or humidi fi ers. • In sandy or dusty environments. • Near fl ammable items or explosives. • In wet places, such as bathrooms or in the rain. When using products with weatherproof designs, read their manuals as well.
65EN • In places prone to strong vibrations. • Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations. • When attaching the camera to or removing it from a tripod, rotate the tripod screw, not the camera. • Before transporting the camera, remove a tripod and all other non-OLYMPUS accessories. • Do not touch electric contacts on cameras. • Do not leave the camera pointed directly at the sun. This may cause lens or shutter curtain damage, color failure, ghosting on the image pickup device, or may possibly cause fi res. • Do not push or pull severely on the lens. • Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the batteries. Select a cool, dry location for storage to prevent condensation or mold from forming inside the camera. After storage, test the camera by turning it on and pressing the shutter button to make sure that it is operating normally. • The camera may malfunction if it is used in a location where it is subject to a magnetic/electromagnetic fi eld, radio waves, or high voltage, such as near a TV set, microwave, video game, loud speakers, large monitor unit, TV/radio tower, or transmission towers. In such cases, turn the camera off and on again before further operation. • Always observe the operating environment restrictions described in the camera’s manual. Battery Handling Precautions Battery Handling Precautions Follow these important guidelines to prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, burning, exploding, or causing electrical shocks or burns. DANGER • Never heat or incinerate batteries. • Take precautions when carrying or storing batteries to prevent them from coming into contact with any metal objects such as jewelry, pins, fasteners, etc. • Never store batteries where they will be exposed to direct sunlight, or subjected to high temperatures in a hot vehicle, near a heat source, etc. • To prevent causing battery leaks or damaging their terminals, carefully follow all instructions regarding the use of batteries. Never attempt to disassemble a battery or modify it in any way, solder, etc. • If battery fl uid gets into your eyes, fl ush your eyes immediately with clear, cold running water and seek medical attention immediately. • Always store batteries out of the reach of small children. If a child accidentally swallows a battery, seek medical attention immediately. • If you cannot remove the battery from the camera, contact an authorized distributor or service center. Do not try to remove the battery by force. Damage to the battery exterior (scratches, etc.) may produce heat or an explosion. WARNING • Keep batteries dry at all times. • To prevent batteries from leaking, overheating, or causing a fi re or explosion, use only batteries recommended for use with this product. • Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating instructions. • Do not use a battery if it is cracked or broken. • If a battery leaks, becomes discolored or deformed, or becomes abnormal in any other way during operation, stop using the camera. • If a battery leaks fl uid onto your clothing or skin, remove the clothing and fl ush the affected area with clean, running cold water immediately. If the fl uid burns your skin, seek medical attention immediately. • Never subject batteries to strong shocks or continuous vibration. • Never mix batteries (old and new batteries, charged and uncharged batteries, batteries of different manufacture or capacity, etc.). • Do not use batteries if their body is not covered by the insulating sheet or if the sheet is torn, as this may cause fl uid leaks, fi re or injury.
66EN The following AA (R6) batteries cannot be used. Batteries whose bodies are only partially or not at all covered by an insulating sheet. Batteries whose - terminals are raised, but not covered by an insulating sheet. Batteries whose - terminals are fl at and not completely covered by an insulating sheet. (Such batteries cannot be used even if the - terminals are partially covered.) CAUTION • Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks, discoloration, warping, or any other abnormality. • The battery may become hot during prolonged use. To avoid minor burns, do not remove it immediately after using the camera. • Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period. AA alkaline batteries The number of pictures that you can take may vary considerably depending on the battery manufacturer and shooting conditions. AA NiMH batteries (rechargeable batteries) Caution: There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with the incorrect battery type. Dispose of the used battery following the instructions. • The following types of batteries cannot be used: Lithium battery pack (CR-V3)/AA (R6) manganese (zinc- carbon) batteries/AA (R6) oxyride batteries/AA (R6) lithium batteries • Power consumption by the camera varies depending on which functions are used. • During the conditions described below, power is consumed continuously and the battery becomes exhausted quickly. • The zoom is used repeatedly. • The shutter button is pressed halfway repeatedly in shooting mode, activating the auto focus. • A picture is displayed on the monitor for an extended period of time. • The camera is connected to a printer. • Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to turn off without displaying the battery level warning. • Battery life varies depending on the type of battery, manufacturer, shooting conditions, etc. Similarly, the camera may turn off without displaying the battery level warning or may display the battery level warning more quickly. • Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to turn off without displaying the battery level warning. • Always charge NiMH batteries before using them for the fi rst time, or if they have not been used for a long period. • In some cases, alkaline batteries may have a shorter service life than NiMH. Alkaline battery performance is limited, especially at low temperatures. The use of NiMH batteries is recommended. • When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and spare battery as warm as possible. A battery that has run down at low temperatures may be restored after it is warmed at room temperature. • Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase extra batteries. A recommended battery may be diffi cult to obtain while traveling. • Using, charging or storing the batteries outside these ranges could shorten battery life or affect battery performance. Always unload the batteries from the camera before storing the camera for a long period. • Before using NiMH batteries, always read the provided instructions.
67EN • The number of pictures you can take may vary depending on the shooting conditions or batteries. • Please recycle batteries to help save our planet’s resources. When you throw away dead batteries, be sure to cover their terminals and always observe local laws and regulations. MonitorMonitor • Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a playback mode failure or damage to the monitor. • A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction. • When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode. • In places subject to low temperatures, the monitor may take a long time to turn on or its color may change temporarily. When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea to occasionally place it in a warm place. The monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low temperatures will recover in normal temperatures. • The monitor of this product is manufactured with high-quality accuracy, however, there may be a stuck or dead pixel on the monitor. These pixels do not have any in fl uence on the image to be saved. Because of the characteristics, the unevenness of the color or brightness may also be found depending on the angle, but this is due to the structure of the monitor. This is not a malfunction.
