Do not use old batteries with new ones, or mix brands of batteries.
Ensure the batteries are positioned correctly with regard to polarity (+ / -).
When the camera is not in use for long periods, always unplug the camera from its power
source (batteries or AC Power Adapter) for safety purposes.
Leaking batteries can cause fire and pollution to the environment.
Allowing dust to accumulate in the camera over a long period is hazardous as extreme
circumstances may cause a fire. It is best to clean your camera prior to seasonal periods

Important information about battery usage
Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods.
Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leak if kept inside the camera.
Do not use manganese batteries as they cannot deliver sufficient power.
Low temperatures (below O C) can cause the camera to work for a shorter period
of time due to reduced battery performance. The batteries will recover at normal
temperatures.
Do not use old and new batteries or different types together.
Extended use of the camera may cause the camera body to become warm.
This is perfectly normal.
If you are planning to use this camera for long periods of time, it is advisable to use
an AC adapter.

Using the AC power adapter
If you have access to a main supply, using an AC Adapter allows the camera to be used
for long periods of time. If you connect the camera to a computer,
it is advisable to use an AC adapter rather than the camera’s battery,
as this will enable extended use.
Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC 6V IN) on the camera.
Please ensure that you use an AC adapter with the correct
specification for the camera.
Failure to do so may affect your warranty.
WARNING
Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the main supply.
Keep the metallic part of camera away from any metallic material to prevent fatal damage.

Note
When a subject is closer than 1m there will be an additional exposure (2~3times) to
ensure the correct lighting levels. Please do not move until the main flash fires.
Using the flash frequently will reduce the life of the batteries.
Under normal operating conditions, the charging time for the flash is normally under
10 seconds. If the batteries are weak, the charging time will be longer.
If you take a outdoor photography or the subject is in shady place, set the flash mode
Fill-in flash to get a good result.
If you take a picture in dark place and the flash mode is off, LOW LUMINANCE
message will display on the LCD monitor. In addition, it may cause the camera to lock the
Shutter automatically. In this case, set the flash mode to Auto flash and take a picture again.
