    Other EYE-FI Information
    ■It’s critical that you disable (do not turn on) Endless Memory Mode in 
    EYE-FI Center Software.
    ■As of December 2010, EYE-FI Cards are permitted only in the countries and 
    regions in which they were purchased. You may be held liable due to local 
    restrictions.
    ■The EYE-FI Card has a wireless LAN function. Do not insert the EYE-FI Card where 
    wireless LAN is prohibited, such as while aboard an airplane or in a hospital.
    ■Even when you set EYE-FI to off, the card may transmit radio waves. 
    ■The card may become warm during use. This is normal.
    ■Battery life is reduced when using an EYE-FI Card.
    ■For the best reception when transferring pictures to a computer or mobile device, 
    the rear of the camera should face the Wi-Fi access point.

    Care and maintenance
    ■If you suspect water has gotten inside the camera, remove the batteries and card. 
    Allow all components to air-dry for at least 24 hours before using the camera.
    ■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.
    ■Service agreements may be available in your country. Contact a dealer of KODAK 
    Products for more information.
    ■For digital camera disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities. 
    In the US, go to the Electronics Industry Alliance site at www.eiae.org or Kodak at 
    www.kodak.com/go/c135support.
    ■In water, do not use below a depth of 5 meters (16 ft).
    ■Do not open/close camera doors in water.
    ■The camera does not float. To prevent it from sinking, secure it to your wrist with 
    the wrist strap (provided). You can also purchase a floating wrist strap at 
    www.kodak.com/go/accessories. Tightly close and latch all doors to keep the 
    camera waterproof. Do not open doors in water or when hands are wet. 
    Waterproof integrity may be compromised if the camera is dropped.
    ■If water has entered the camera, remove the card. Allow all components to air-dry 
    for at least 24 hours before using the camera.
    ■If the camera was used in chemically treated water or saltwater, rinse it in fresh 
    water, then use a soft towel to dry it.
    ■Wipe off dirt or sand from the door seals—debris could compromise the seal and 
    cause a leak when in water.
