2 Getting Started
Getting Started
Attach the strap to the left and right side of the camera.
When you are not shooting images, attach the lens cap to protect the lens. The lens hood cuts out light which adversely affects the image, and it also helps to
protect the camera. Do not use the lens hood when shooting with a flash or when the AF-assist illuminator is necessary for shooting.

When not using the lens hood
3Getting Started
With the batterys positive and negative terminals oriented correctly, move the orange battery latch (3), and fully insert the battery (4).
Slide the memory card in until it clicks into place (5). Be careful not to insert the battery or memory card upside-down or backward, as
this could cause a malfunction. When the write-protect switch on the memory card is in the lock position, images
cannot be captured or deleted, and the card cannot be formatted.
B Formatting a Memory Card The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into this camera, make sure to format it with this camera. Note that formatting a memory card permanently deletes all images and other
data on the memory card. Be sure to make copies of any images you wish to keep before formatting the memory card.
Insert the memory card into the camera, press the d button, and select Format card in the setup menu (A17).
Removing the Battery or Memory Card Turn the camera off and make sure that the power-on lamp and screen have turned off, and then open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover. Move the battery latch to eject the battery. Gently push the memory card into the camera to partially eject the memory card. Be careful when handling the camera, battery, and memory card immediately after
using the camera, as they may be hot.

4 Getting Started
* A plug adapter is attached depending on the country or region of purchase. The shape of the plug adapter varies with the country or region of purchase.
Charging starts when the camera is connected to an electrical outlet while the battery is inserted, as shown in the illustration. The power-on lamp (charge lamp) slowly flashes while the battery is charging.
When charging is complete, the power-on lamp turns off. Unplug the Charging AC Adapter from the electrical outlet, and disconnect the USB cable. Charging time is about 3 hours for a fully exhausted battery.
The battery cannot be charged when the power-on lamp quickly flashes, possibly due to one of the reasons described below. - The ambient temperature is not suited to charging. - The USB cable or Charging AC Adapter is not properly connected. - The battery is damaged.

Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED)
Declaration of Conformity This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada's licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC/ISED RF Exposure Statement This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This product has been tested and found to comply with FCC/ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. Please refer to the SAR test report that was uploaded to FCC website.
24 Technical Notes
Observe the precautions described below in addition to the warnings in For Your Safety (Avi-ix) when using or storing the device.
The Camera
Do Not Apply Strong Impact to the Camera The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. In addition, do not touch or apply force to the lens.
Keep Dry The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building
on a cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.
Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Doing so could result in loss of data or camera malfunction.
Do Not Point the Lens at the Sun
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources when shooting or when leaving the camera unattended without a lens cap. Strong light sources such as sunlight are concentrated through the lens, which may cause deformation of the internal parts of the lens or discoloration or burn-in on the image sensor. The camera may be damaged even when the lens is pointed toward the sun for a few seconds, particularly when the lens is in a telephoto position. The camera may not be able to perform exposure control when the internal parts of the lens are deformed. Unevenness may appear in images when discoloration or burn-in occurs on the image sensor. It is recommended that you attach the lens cap when you are not using the camera.
