Cautions for Use
Optimal use of the camera
Take care not to drop or knock the unit or put a lot of pressure on it.
• Take care not to knock or drop the bag/case that you inserted the camera in as the shock may cause damage to the camera, lens or LCD monitor.
•  Do not attach any other items to the hand strap that’s included with your camera. While 
being stored, that item can rest against the LCD monitor and damage it.
•  Do not use a paper bag as it can easily rip causing the camera to fall and be damaged.
•  We strongly recommend you purchase a good camera bag/case from your local dealer 
to protect your camera.
Keep the camera as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.).• If you use the camera on top of or near a TV, the pictures and sound on the camera may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.
• Do not use the camera near cell phones because doing so may result in noise adversely affecting the pictures and sound.• Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures may be distorted, by strong magnetic fields created by speakers or large motors.• Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by microprocessors may adversely affect the camera, disturbing the pictures and sound.• If the camera is adversely affected by electromagnetic equipment and stops functioning properly, turn the camera off and remove the battery or disconnect AC adaptor (optional). Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC adaptor and turn the camera on.
Do not use the camera near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.• If you record near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines, the recorded pictures and sound may be adversely affected.
Always use the supplied cords and cables. If you use optional accessories, use the cords and the cables supplied with them.Do not extend the cords or the cables.
Do not spray insecticides or volatile chemicals onto the camera.• If the camera is sprayed with such chemicals, the camera body may be damaged and the surface finish may peel off.
• Do not keep rubber or plastic products in contact with the camera for a long period of time.
