    Important notes
    ˆExtremes in temperature may cause problems.
    - If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment,
    condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn
    the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed.
    Moisture built up can also occur in the memory card. If this happens, turn off
    the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has
    dispersed.
    ˆCaution on Using the Lens
    - If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and
    deterioration of the image sensor.
    - Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the
    lens.
    - When the lens cover opens, the outer lens that you can see is for auto focus.
    When using or cleaning this camera, handle the outer lens with care.
    ˆIf the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can
    occur. 
    It is a good idea to remove the battery and the memory card if you do not intend
    using the camera for an extended period of time.
    ˆIf the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to
    protect the memory card.ˆCamera Maintenance
    - Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD
    assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid
    can be used.
    Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into
    contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This
    may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance.
    Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid damage
    and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use.
    ˆDo not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.
    ˆUnder certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is
    not harmful to the camera and is not a malfunction.
    ˆWhen images are uploaded or downloaded (when the charger and USB cable
    are inserted into the cradle(optional) at the same time), the data transfer may be
    affected by static electricity.
    In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer
    again.
    ˆBefore an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera
    condition. 
    - Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.
    - Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.
