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.
 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.
 
• This camera uses one Olympus lithium ion battery (LI-90B). 
No other type of batteries can be used. 
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with the 
incorrect battery type.
 
• 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.

• We strongly recommend that you use only the genuine 
Olympus dedicated rechargeable battery, battery charger 
and USB-AC adapter with this camera. Using a non-genuine 
rechargeable battery, battery charger and/or USB-AC 
adapter may result in  fi re or personal injury due to leakage, 
heating, ignition or damage to the battery. Olympus does not 
assume any liability for accidents or damage that may result 
from the use of a battery, battery charger and/or USB-AC 
adapter that are not genuine Olympus accessories.
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.
