• Wrapping the strap of the camera around your neck is also dangerous.
Please take care that small children do not hang the strap around their necks.
• To avoid the risk of it being swallowed by mistake, keep the SD Memory
Card out of the reach of small children. Seek medical attention immediately if a memory card is accidentally swallowed.
• Use an AC adapter that is of the power and voltage specified for exclusive use with this product. The use of an AC adapter other than that specified exclusively for use with this product may cause fire or electric shocks.

• If any of the battery leakage should come in contact with skin or clothes, wash the affected areas thoroughly with water.
• Remove the battery from the camera immediately if it becomes hot or begins to smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as there is a risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long periods of time.
• Should the LCD be damaged, be careful of glass fragments. Also, be careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin or in your eyes or mouth.
About the Battery Charger and the AC Adapter

Care to be Taken During Handling
• Take the international warranty card with you when you travel abroad.
Also take the Worldwide Service Network that is included in the package.
This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.
• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or during travelling). Contents of a recording such as images and sounds cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or data transfer from your camera to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording medium (SD Memory Card), etc.
• The lens on this camera is not exchangeable. The lens is not removable.
• Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol or benzene.
• Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.
• Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be avoided. Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera from becoming moldy during storage.
• Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or any other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resistant.
• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure. Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to the vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.
• The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
• The liquid crystal display will become black at high temperature but will return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
• The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low temperatures. This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.
• Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain high-performance.
• If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation may form on the inside and outside of the camera.
Therefore put the camera in a bag or plastic bag, and take the camera out when the difference in temperature has subsided.
• Avoid contact with garbage, dirt, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, salt, etc. as this may cause damage to the camera. If rain or drops of water get onto the camera, please wipe dry.
• Refer to “Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card” (p.24) regarding
the SD Memory Card.
• The AC plug cord supplied with the camera is for exclusive use with the
Battery charger D-BC8. Do not use it with any other equipment.
• Please do not press forcefully on the LCD monitor. This could cause breakage or malfunction.
• Be careful not to sit down with the camera in your back pocket as this may damage the exterior of the camera or the LCD monitor.
• When using a tripod with the camera, be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket on the camera.

• Be sure to format unused cards or cards that have been used on
another camera. Refer to “Formatting an SD Memory Card or the

Data Backup
Very occasionally, data stored in the built-in memory becomes unreadable. As a backup measure, we recommend that you download important data to a PC or store the data in a medium other than the built-in memory.
Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card
• Make sure that the camera is turned off before opening the battery/card cover.
• The SD Memory Card is equipped with a write-protect switch.
Write-protect switch
Setting the switch to [LOCK] protects the existing data by prohibiting recording of new data, deletion of existing data or formatting of the card.
• Care should be taken if you remove the SD Memory Card immediately after using the camera, as the card may be hot.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn the camera off while data is being recorded on the card, images or sound are being played back, or the camera is connected to a PC with the USB cable as this may cause the data to be lost or the card to be damaged.
• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away from water and store away from high temperature.
• Be sure to format unused cards or cards that have been used on another camera.
Refer to “Formatting an SD Memory Card or the Built-in Memory” (p.148) for
instructions on formatting.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card during formatting as this may damage the card and render it unusable.
• The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following circumstances.
PENTAX does not accept any liability for data that is deleted
(1) when the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) when the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
(3) when the card has not been used for a long time.
(4) when the card is ejected, the AC adapter is disconnected or the battery is removed while the data on the card is being recorded or accessed.
• The SD Memory Card has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a backup of important data on a PC.
• Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
• When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in the memory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.
• When you purchase the SD Memory Card, access the PENTAX website and confirm beforehand if they have compatibility with your camera. Inquiries on the card compatibility can also be answered by your nearest PENTAX service center.

Image Size and Quality of Still Pictures
Choose the image size and quality best suited to your purpose.
Higher quality levels and numbers of recorded pixels produce clearer images for printing, but the resulting increase in data volume reduces the total number of pictures that can be taken.
When you choose high image quality as well as a large image size, it may take ten seconds or more for the camera to finish recording after shooting.
Choose the appropriate number of recorded pixels and quality level on the [ A Rec. Mode] menu.

Using Histogram
A histogram is a graph showing the brightness of an image on the horizontal axis and the number of pixels on the vertical axis (distribution chart of the brightness). The histogram will help you detect the brightness of the image you have taken. For instance, the graph peak tends to appear on the left side for a darker image, and the graph peak tends to (Dark)
Brightness
(Bright) appear on the right side for a brighter image. In general, when the exposure meter of your image is wellbalanced, the graph peaks tend to appear in the middle. On the contrary, when the exposure meter gets imbalanced tending dark and bright without showing a neutral brightness, the peaks appear not in the middle but on both sides.

Service will be rendered, and defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage, mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for damages from delay or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or workmanship or otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its representatives under all guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as hereinbefore provided.

If the equipment is not covered by warranty, regular charges of the manufacturer or of its representatives will apply. Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner. If your PENTAX was purchased outside of the country where you wish to have it serviced during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may be charged by the manufacturer’s representatives in that country. Notwithstanding this, your PENTAX returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge according to this procedure and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping charges and customs clearance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your purchase when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer's authorized representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are sending it directly to the manufacturer.
