Connecting interface cable without using the cable protector may 
damage the digital terminal.
 Do not use a USB 2.0 cable equipped with a Micro-B plug. It may 
damage the camera’s digital terminal.
 As shown in the lower-right illustration  for step 4, check that the interface 
cable is securely attached to the digital terminal.
To connect the camera to a TV set, using HDMI Cable HTC-100 (sold
