    kAlways stop the recharging after the prescribed recharge time, even
    if the battery pack is not fully charged
    iIf you continue to recharge the battery pack, it may
    cause the battery pack to catch fire, explode, leak or
    spew battery fluid, or generate heat. 
    kKeep out of the reach of children
    iThey may handle the battery pack in an unforeseeable
    manner that results in damage. 
    kCharge the battery pack before using it 
    iAlways recharge the battery pack before using it for
    the first time, or when using it after it has been kept in
    storage for a long time. During recharging, the battery
    pack may be warm. This is normal and does not indi-
    cate a malfunction. 
    kNote concerning the battery pack after use 
    iThe battery pack may be warm immediately after the
    digital camera is used. If removing the battery pack,
    turn off the digital camera and allow the battery pack
    to cool down before removing it. 
    kRecycling the battery pack 
    iTo conserve the environment and for efficient use of
    natural resources, please discharge the used battery
    pack, cover the (+) and (–) terminals with tape and
    recycle the insulated battery pack. 
    iIf disposing of the battery pack as unburnable trash,
    please follow all applicable regulations of your area.

    USING YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY 
    Concerning the accessories 
    kCautions concerning the use of the AC adaptor 
    iUse only the separately sold AC adaptor (model VAR-G7EX for the VPC-
    J4EX, model VAR-G7E for the VPC-J4EX [for U.K.] and model VAR-G7U
    for the VPC-J4) with your digital camera. Do not use an AC adaptor other
    than the one indicted here, designed for specific use with your digital cam-
    era. 
    iIf an AC adaptor other than the specified one is used, it may damage the
    digital camera and cause a fire or electric shock. 
    iNormally when using an AC adaptor, remove the battery pack. Otherwise
    the battery pack may cause excess heat, leakage, injury or damage to
    nearby objects. 
    iFor complete information on how to use the AC adaptor, refer to the
    instructions accompanying it. 
    kCautions concerning the card 
    iImmediately after use, the card will be very hot. Before removing the card,
    turn off the digital camera and wait for the temperature to cool down. 
    iKeep out of the reach of children. Young children may put the media in
    their mouth and choke or cause some other unexpected injury or accident.

    For correct use of your camera
    kCautions when cleaning the digital camera 
    Cleaning procedure 
    1 Turn off the digital camera and remove the battery pack. 
    2 Remove the dirt with a soft cloth. 
    3 If the digital camera is extremely dirty, wipe with a soft cloth moist-
    ened with a mild detergent diluted with water and wrung dry. 
    Caution 
    iDo not use benzene or thinner products to clean the digital camera. Doing
    so may cause deformation, discoloration, or paint peeling. When using a
    chemically treated cloth, carefully read its instructions and warnings. 
    iDo not spray insecticides or volatile sprays on the digital camera. Do not let
    rubber or vinyl objects contact the digital camera for a long period. They
    may cause deformation, discoloration, or paint peeling.  kCautions before capturing important images 
    iBefore capturing important images, make sure that the digital camera
    is operating properly and in condition to capture the image properly. 
    iSanyo Electric shall not be held responsible for any losses that result
    from images that could not be recorded, are erased, destroyed, or
    damaged in any way due to a problem with the digital camera, any of
    its accessories, or its software. 
    kCaution concerning copyrights 
    iThe images you capture with your digital camera are for your own pri-
    vate use; any other use may violate the rights of copyrights owners. 
    iPlease note that photography may be restricted at stage perfor-
    mances, shows or exhibitions, even in presentations whose purpose is
    entertaining or amusing individuals.
    iAlso note that images that are intended to be copyrighted cannot be
    used outside those limits defined by the regulations of the relevant
    copyright laws.

    USING YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY 
    kCaution concerning the battery pack 
    iPeriodically clean with a dry cloth the terminals (contacts) of the bat-
    teries
    Do not touch the battery terminals with your bare hands. Doing so will
    allow contaminants from your hands to adhere to the terminals and oxi-
    dize, increasing the contact resistance. If the contact resistance increases,
    the usable life of the batteries will diminish. 
    kCaution when cleaning the lens 
    iIf the lens gets dirty, use a commercially available air blower or a cleaning
    cloth for photographic equipment to clean it. 
    kWhen not using the digital camera for a long period 
    iRemove the battery pack. However, when the battery pack is removed for a
    long time, the digital camera functions may begin to not work properly. 
    Periodically reinstall the battery pack and check the digital camera func-
    tions. 
    iIf the battery pack is left in the digital camera, a small amount of power is
    still used even if the digital camera is turned off. If the battery pack is left in
    the digital camera for a long period, it may become completely discharged
    and lose its ability to be recharged again. 
    kCautions concerning condensation 
    iUsing the digital camera with condensation inside it may damage the digi-
    tal camera.
    If condensation seems likely to form 
    iPlace the digital camera in a plastic bag and seal it, and then wait until the
    digital camera has reached the ambient temperature. 
    Be careful of condensation under the following conditions 
    iWhen moving the digital camera suddenly from a cold place to a warm
    place. 
    iWhen the ambient temperature changes drastically, such as when a heater
    is turned on to quickly heat the room. 
    iWhen the digital camera is placed in the path of cool air from an air condi-
    tioner. 
    iWhen the digital camera is placed in a location of high humidity.

    kCaution concerning undesired interference 
    iThe digital camera may create undesired interference if used close to a
    television or radio. To avoid this type of interference, make sure the cores
    on the supplied AV cable and USB interface cable are not removed.
     
    kCaution concerning magnetism 
    iDo not place credit cards, bank cards, floppy disks, or other items that may
    be damaged by magnetic fields near the speaker. Data may be lost or the
    magnetic strips on cards may be damaged. 
    kCautions concerning data storage 
    iIt is recommended that any important data be copied onto a separate
    media (such as a hard disk, MO disk, or CD-R disk). 
    iStored data may be lost (or corrupted) in cases such as those listed below. 
    Sanyo Electric will not be held responsible for any damage or lost profits
    arising from the loss of data. 
    hIf the card is used incorrectly. 
    hIf the card is not inserted correctly into the digital camera.

    USING YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY 
    kCautions when handling the cards 
    iThe cards are precision devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject them to
    strong forces or shocks. 
    iAvoid using or storing the cards in places with extremely high or low tem-
    peratures, subject to direct sunlight, in a completely closed vehicle, near
    air conditioners or heaters, or in humid or dusty locations. 
    iAvoid using or storing the cards in locations where strong static electrical
    charges or electrical noise can be easily generated. 
    iDo not allow the edges of the cards to become contaminated with foreign
    materials. Gently wipe away any contamination with a soft, dry cloth. 
    iDo not carry the cards in trouser pockets, as the cards may become dam-
    aged when you sit down or make other movements that may apply forces. 
    iBefore using a new card or a card that was used in other equipment, be
    sure to format it using the digital camera (see “FORMATTING A CARD” on
    page 134). 
    iWhen buying commercially available products, carefully read the instruc-
    tions and warnings that come with the card.
