Caution

Do not aim the camera at intense light sources, such as the sun on a 

clear day or an intense artificial light source.

Doing so may damage the image sensor or other internal components.

 

●

When using the camera on a sandy beach or at a windy location, be 

careful not to allow dust or sand to enter the camera.

 

●

Wipe off any dust, grime, or other foreign matter on the flash with a 

cotton swab or cloth.

The heat emitted from the flash may cause foreign matter to smoke or the 

product to malfunction.

 

●

Remove and store the battery pack/batteries when you are not using 

the product.

Any battery leakage that occurs may cause product damage.

 

●

Before you discard the battery pack/batteries, cover the terminals with 

tape or other insulators.

Contacting other metal materials may lead to fire or explosions.

 

●

Unplug any battery charger used with the product when not in use. Do 

not cover with a cloth or other objects when in use.

Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to 

overheat and distort, resulting in fire.

Pets biting the battery pack could cause leakage, overheating, or 

explosion, resulting in product damage or fire.

 

●

If your product uses multiple batteries, do not use batteries that 

have different levels of charge together, and do not use old and 

new batteries together. Do not insert the batteries with the + and –

This may cause the product to malfunction.

 

●

Do not sit down with the camera in your pant pocket.

Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen.

Do not allow the product to maintain contact with the same area of skin 

for extended periods of time during use.

and blistering, even if the product does not feel hot. The use of a tripod or 

similar equipment is recommended when using the product in hot places 

and for people with circulation problems or less sensitive skin.

 

●

Follow any indications to turn off the product in places where its use is 

forbidden.

Not doing so may cause other equipment to malfunction due to the effect 

of electromagnetic waves and even result in accidents.
