Do not drop batteries or let them be banged
around. This could damage the casings, causing the
batteries to leak.
If the internal parts or components of the battery
come into contact with your eyes or your mouth,
flush the affected site with water and get medical
help.
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals, and be
sure to cover the terminals before you throw
batteries away. If the terminals contact metal, they
may overheat and explode, causing a fire.
Black or bright (red, green, blue, and white) dots
may sometimes appear on the LCD screen. These are
merely misfiring pixels, and have no effect on the
recorded image.
If you aim the camera at the sun, or shoot the
flash close to someones eyes, you may injure your
eyesight or that of someone else.
If you see smoke or smell a burning odor coming
from your camera, turn the camera off. If you continue
to operate the camera, it could cause a fire or give you
an electrical shock.
Do not clean the camera with flammable liquid, as
these may cause a fire.
Do not leave the camera in humid or dusty areas.
Dust and humidity can cause the camera to short
circuit, leading to a fire.
If the camera gets anywhere near a strong
magnetic field, it may not work correctly, or the
pictures taken may be ruined or adversely affected.
Use a soft, absorbent cloth to clean the surface of
your camera.
