Instructions on how to use the power source

You can use batteries only to provide the camera with power.

Using the batteries

We recommend using batteries for a digital camera (Within a year from the date of manufacture). The batteries are listed below.

Non rechargeable batteries : AA type - Alkaline, Ni-Mn, Ni-Zn, Lithium

CR-V3 type - Lithium

Rechargeable batteries : AA type - Ni-MH(Samsung SNB-2312 recommended),

Ni-Cd (over 1000mAh)

CR-V3 type - Samsung SBP-1303(Lithium Ion battery)

It is easy to buy alkaline batteries. However, the duration for using batteries varies in accordance with the battery manufacturer or the photographic conditions.

When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power.

Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. It may cause an explosion.

Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods. Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera.

We recommend high capacity ALKALINE batteries as manganese batteries cannot deliver sufficient power.

Low temperatures (below 0°C) can affect the performance of the batteries and you may experience reduced battery life.

Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures.

Do not use old and new batteries at the same time.

During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm.

This is perfectly normal.

13

Connecting to a Power Source

Using the batteries : If the camera does not turn on after you have inserted batteries, please check whether the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity (+ / -).

1. Open the battery chamber cover by pushing in the direction of the arrow.

2. Insert the batteries taking note of the polarity (+ / -).

Instructions on how to use the memory card

Maintenance of the memory card

Be sure to format the memory card (see p.73) if you are using a newly purchased memory for the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognize, or if it contains images captured with a different camera.

Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or removed.

Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory card’s performance.

Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory card.

Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung warranty.

The memory card is an electronic precision device.

Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact.

Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong electronic or magnetic fields, e.g. near loud speakers or TV receivers.

Please do not use or store in an environment where there are extremes in temperature.

Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any liquid.

Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth.

Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.

During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card is warm.

This is perfectly normal.

Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera.

To use the memory card in this camera, format first the memory card by using this camera.

Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader.

Preserving the memory card data

If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may become corrupted :

- When the memory card is used incorrectly.

- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording, deleting

(formatting) or reading.

Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data.

It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up e.g. floppy disks, hard disks, CD etc.

If there is insufficient memory available : If you press the shutter button for the shot, a

[CARD FULL !] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To optimize the amount of memory in the camera, replace the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored on the memory.

This file format complies with the DCF(Design rule for Camera File system).

Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures.

MULTI( ) : Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the available light in the image area. However, the calculation will be biased towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for general use.

Important notes

Be sure to observe the following precautions!

This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit in the following locations.

- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.

- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.

- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.

- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.

Do not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals (like naphthalene and mothball), high temperature and high humidity.

Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically sealed box when not planning to use the camera for a long period of time

Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

- Do not let sand get inside the unit when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.

- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the unit unusable.

Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture build up can also occur in the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed.

Caution on Using the Lens

- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.

- Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.

If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur.

It is a good idea to remove the batteries and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.

81

Important notes

If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the memory card.

Camera Maintenance

- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies.

If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used.

Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use.

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.

Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is not harmful to the camera and is not a malfunction.

When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.
