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

Rechargeable batteries

CR-V3 type - Lithium Ion battery

: AA type - Ni-MH battery

(Samsung SNB-2312 recommended)

CR-V3 type - 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 batteries (listed above) 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.

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.

■ Handling the camera

- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

- This camera is not waterproof.

To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.

- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may permanently damage the unit.

■ 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.

《79》

Important notes

■ 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.

■ 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.

■ Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera condition.

- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra batteries.

- Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.
