Appendix
Extending battery life
■ See LCD Brightness (page 32) and Auto Power Off (page 32).
■ Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:
– Reviewing your pictures on the LCD (see page 10)
– Using the LCD as a viewfinder (see page 6)
– Excessive use of the flash
■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean,
dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.
■ Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41° F (5° C). When using
your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not
discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature,
they may be usable.
Upgrading your software and firmware
Download the latest versions of the software included on the Kodak EasyShare
software CD and the camera firmware (the software that runs on the camera). See
Additional care and maintenance
■ If the camera has been subjected to inclement weather or you suspect water has
gotten inside the camera, turn off the camera and remove the battery and card.
Allow all components to air-dry for at least 24 hours before using the camera
again.
■ Blow gently on the lens or LCD to remove dust and dirt. Wipe gently with a soft,
lint-free cloth or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue. Do not use cleaning solutions
unless designed specifically for camera lenses. Do not allow chemicals, such as
suntan lotion, to contact painted surfaces.

repacking instructions, failure to use items supplied by Kodak (such as adapters and
cables), or claims made after the duration of this warranty.

purchase, use or failure of the product), regardless of cause or for breach of any

Regulatory compliance
FCC compliance and advisory
Kodak EasyShare C663 zoom digital camera
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed or used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) reorient or
relocate the receiving antenna; 2) increase the separation between the equipment and
the receiver; 3) connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected; 4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for additional suggestions.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Where shielded
interface cables have been provided with the product or specified additional
components or accessories elsewhere defined to be used with the installation of the
product, they must be used in order to ensure compliance with FCC regulation.
