Do not use or store the camera in a hot environment or in direct sunlight. Do not use or store the camera near powerful magnetic fields, such as a magnet or transformer. Avoid touching the lens of the camera. Do not expose the camera to direct sunlight for a long period of time. To prevent the camera from being damaged by moisture, do not use or store the camera in very humid environments, such as in rain or near bodies of water. If water accidentally comes in contact with the camera, turn the camera off immediately, remove the battery and the memory card and dry it completely within 24 hours. When you take the camera from a cold environment to a warmer environment, condensation may occur. Please wait for a reasonable period of time before you turn the camera on. Before you remove the battery and memory card, the camera should be turned off. 4 When you clean the body of the camera, do not use abrasive, alcohol-based or organic cleansers or solvents. Use a professional lens cleaning cloth and appropriate cleaner to wipe and clean the lens. Download your photos and remove the memory card when you are going to store the camera for long periods of time. If this camera is not in use for a long period of time, please keep it in a dry and clean storage location. Our company will not pay compensation for any failure of playback including: pictures or videos damaged or unrecoverable by improper operation. 5 Safety Notes for Battery Please use a battery that is the same type as the one included. Please use the attached charger to charge the battery. If battery fluid leaks inside the camera, contact our customer service department immediately. If battery fluid leaks onto your skin, rinse your skin immediately with clean water and seek immediate medical attention. Disposal of used batteries should be carried out in accordance with your local (national or regional) regulations. To prevent the battery from being damaged, do not drop the battery or allow it to hit solid objects or to be scratched by foreign objects. Do not let the battery come in contact with metal objects (including coins) to avoid short circuiting, discharging, excessive heat or possible leakage. Do not attempt to disassemble the battery. Do not expose the battery to water. Always keep the battery contacts dry. Do not heat the battery or throw it into a fire to avoid a possible explosion. Do not store the battery in a hot environment or in direct sunlight. If the battery overheats during charging or use, stop charging or use immediately. Turn off the product, remove the battery carefully, and wait until it cools down. 6 When the camera is stored for a long period of time, remove the battery and keep it in a safe, dry place that is not accessible to infants and children. In colder environments, the performance of the battery could be noticeably reduced. When you install the battery, align the battery markings according to the positive and negative markings inside the camera battery compartment. Never force the battery into the battery compartment. 7 Safety Notes for Memory Card We highly suggest buying only well-known, name brand memory cards to ensure peak performance and reliability. Format the memory card using the camera before you use it or insert a new one. Do not drop the memory card or allow it to hit solid objects to avoid damaging it. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the memory card. Do not expose the memory card to water. Always keep it dry. Do not remove the memory card when the camera is turned on. Otherwise, the memory card and photo/video files could be permanently damaged. Do not directly edit the data on the memory card. Copy the data to your computer before you edit files. When the camera is stored for long periods of time, be sure to download your photos and remove the memory card. Store the memory card in a dry environment. Do not modify the name of the files or folders of the memory card using your computer. Modifying the file names may cause the files to not be recognized on the camera or a possible permanent error may occur. A photo taken with the camera will be stored in the folder that is automatically generated on the memory card. Do not store photos that are not taken using this camera in these folders as the pictures cannot be recognized during playback. When you insert the memory card, make sure the notch of the card matches the markings on the top of the camera card slot. 8 Other Safety Notes Do not disconnect the power or turn the camera off during the update process. Doing so may cause incorrect data to be written and the camera may not power on later. Do not hang the neck strap of the camera around the neck of a child. When using your camera on an airplane, observe the relevant rules specified by the airline and FAA regulations. Due to the limitations of manufacturing technology, the LCD may have a few dead or bright pixels. These pixels do no effect the quality or performance of the camera, photos or video. Do not expose the cameras LCD to water. In a humid environment, only wipe it with a soft, dry, cleaning cloth. If the LCD is damaged and the liquid crystal comes into contact with your skin, wipe your skin with a dry cloth immediately and rinse it with clean water. If liquid crystal comes into contact with your eyes, wash them with clean water at least for 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. If you accidentally swallow liquid crystal, rinse your mouth immediately and seek medical attention. 9 CONTENTS BEFORE YOU START ...........1 SAFETY NOTES ...................4 CONTENTS ...........................10 GETTING READY .................14 Accessories Included ........................14 Installing Lens Cap and Neck Strap ..15 Part Names .......................................16 Installing Battery and Memory Card ..19 Charging the Battery .........................21 Vari-Angle LCD .................................22 Turning Camera On and Off ..............23 Set your Language, Date/Time after the First Power-On ......................24 Set your Language, Date/Time .........24 Resetting your Language ............25 Resetting Date/Time ...................26 10 MODE OVERVIEW ...............27 LCD Display ......................................27 Overview of the Screen Icons in Shooting Mode ............................27 Overview of the Screen Icons in Movie Mode ................................29 Overview of the Screen Icons in Playback Mode ...........................30 How to Take Pictures ........................31 Using the Mode Dial ..........................32
