Do not store or use the video camera in the following types of locations:
• In direct sunlight for a long period of time or high temperature (beyond 40ºC);
• In environments with high magnetic fields;
• In very humid and dusty places;
Doing so may shorten the life of the digital video camera or allow foreign
materials to enter which could damage the internal components.
If the video camera will not be used for a long period of time, we suggest you
download photos and remove the memory card.
If the video camera is taken from a relatively cool environment (lower than
40ºC/104F), and placed in a warmer or more humid atmosphere, condensation
may occur within the appliance. We suggest you wait for it to warm to room
temperature before turning on the video camera.
General Imaging is not responsible for any loss of data.
Memory card notes:
When using a new memory card, or a memory card has been initialized by a
PC, you might have to format the card if the camera is not reading it. However,
please back up any data on the card as the formatting will delete all data on
the card.
To edit image data, copy the image data to PC first.
Do not change or delete the folder names or file names in the memory card from
your PC, as this may make it unusable and/or unreadable.
Only remove and insert a memory card when the camera is off as data loss and/
or corruption may occur otherwise.
Do not turn the camera off when the firmware is being updated or there may be
data or picture loss and/or corruption.
The memory card can be inserted only one way into the camera.

Due to current LCD manufacturing technology, you may see a few light or dark pixels
on your LCD. This is normal.
These light or dark pixels will not affect the quality of the photo or video image.
