We have paid close attention to the safety of this camera. When using this
camera, we request your special attention regarding items marked with the
following symbols.
Warning
• Do not disassemble or modify the camera. High voltage areas are
present inside the camera, with the risk of electric shock.
• If the camera interior is exposed due to dropping or otherwise damaging
the camera, never touch the exposed portion. There is a risk of electric
shock.
• Do not aim the camera at the sun or other strong light sources when
taking pictures or leave the camera sitting in direct sunlight with a lens
cap off. Doing so may cause the camera to malfunction or cause a fire.
• Do not look at the sun or other strong light sources through a lens. Doing
so may lead to a loss of eyesight or cause vision to be impaired.
• If any irregularities occur during use, such as smoke and a strange odor,
stop using the camera immediately, remove the battery or the AC
adapter, and contact your nearest service center. Continued use can
cause a fire or electric shock.
Caution
• Do not place your finger over the flash when discharging the flash. You
may burn yourself.
• Do not cover the flash with clothing when discharging the flash.
Discoloration may occur.
• Some portions of the camera heat up during use. There is a risk of low
temperature burns when holding such portions for long periods.
• Should the monitor be damaged, be careful of glass fragments. Also, be
careful not to allow the liquid crystal to get on your skin or in your eyes
or mouth.
• Depending on your individual factors or physical condition, the use of the
camera may cause itching, rashes or blisters. In case of any
abnormality, stop using the camera and get medical attention
immediately.
Warning
• Always use the battery charger and AC adapter exclusively developed
for this camera, with the specified power and voltage. Using a battery
charger or AC adapter not exclusive to this camera, or using the
exclusive battery charger or AC adapter with an unspecified power or
voltage can cause a fire, electric shock, or camera breakdown. The
specified voltage is 100 - 240V AC.
• Do not disassemble or modify the product. This can cause a fire or
electric shock.
• If the generation of smoke or strange odor from the product or other
abnormality occurs, immediately discontinue using and consult your
nearest service center. Continued use can cause a fire or electric shock.
• If water should happen to get inside the product, consult your nearest
service center. Continued use can cause a fire or electric shock.
• If you see a lightning flash or hear thunder during use of the battery
charger or AC adapter, unplug the power plug and discontinue using.
Continued use can cause damage to the product, fire or electric shock.
• Wipe off the power plug if it should become covered with dust.
Accumulated dust may cause a fire.
• To reduce the risk of hazards, use only CSA/UL certified power supply
cord set, cord is Type SPT-2 or heavier, minimum NO.18 AWG copper,
one end with a molded-on male attachment plug cap (with a specified
NEMA configuration), and the other is provided with a molded-on female
connector body (with a specified IEC nonindustrial type configuration) or
the equivalent.
Caution
• Do not place or drop heavy objects on or forcefully bend the AC plug
cord. Doing so may damage the cord. Should the AC plug cord be
damaged, consult your nearest service center.
• Do not touch or short-circuit the terminal area of the AC plug cord while
the cord is plugged in.
• Do not handle the power plug with wet hands. This can cause an electric
shock.
• Do not drop the product, or subject it to violent impact. This can cause
the product to breakdown.

Regarding copyrights
Images taken with this camera that are for anything other
than personal enjoyment cannot be used without permission
according to the rights as specified in the Copyright Act.
Please take care, as there are cases where limitations are
placed on taking pictures even for personal enjoyment during
demonstrations, performances or of items on display. Images
taken with the purpose of obtaining copyrights cannot also be
used outside the scope of use of the copyright as laid out in
the Copyright Act, and care should be taken here also.
To users of this camera
• Do not use or store this camera in the vicinity of equipment
that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or
magnetic fields. Strong static charges or the magnetic
fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters
could interfere with the monitor, damage the stored data,
or affect the camera’s internal circuitry and cause camera
misoperation.
• The liquid crystal panel used for the monitor is
manufactured using extremely high precision technology.
Although the level of functioning pixels is 99.99% or better,
you should be aware that 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may
not light up or may light up when they should not.
However, this has no effect on the recorded image.
• The Shake Reduction (SR) mechanism of this camera
uses the PENTAX original technology and moves the
image sensor to an appropriate position at high speed with
a magnetic force, which reduces image blurring caused by
camera motion. A rattling sound is made when the camera
is shaken, for example, by changing its orientation, but this
is not a malfunction.
• In this manual, the generic term “computer(s)” refers to
either a Windows®PC or a Macintosh.
• In this manual, the term “battery(ies)” refers to any type of
batteries used for this camera and its accessories.
Regarding User Registration
In order to better serve you, we request that you complete
the user registration, which can be found on the CD-ROM
supplied with the camera or on our website.
Thank you for your cooperation.
