Danger  
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will  
result in death or serious injury.  
ƈ Do not attempt to modify this camera in any way. This may result in fire, injury,  
electric shock or severe damage to you or your camera. Internal inspection,  
maintenance and repairs should be carried out by your dealer or Samsung  
Camera Service centre.  
ƈ Do not leave this camera in places subject to extremely high temperatures, such  
as a sealed vehicle, direct sunlight or other places of extreme variances in  
temperature. Exposure to extreme temperatures may adversely affect the  
camera’s internal components and could cause a fire.  
ƈ When in use, do not cover the camera or Charger. This may cause heat to build  
up and distort the camera body or cause a fire. Always use the camera and its  
accessories in a well-ventilated area.  
ƈ Please do not use this product in close proximity to flammable or explosive  
gases, as this could increase the risk of explosion.  
ƈ Should any form of liquid or a foreign object enter the camera, do not use it.  
Switch off the camera, and then disconnect the power source. You must contact  
your dealer or Samsung Camera Service centre. Do not continue to use the  
camera as this may cause a fire or electric shock.  
ƈ Do not insert or drop metallic or inflammable foreign objects into the camera  
through access points e.g. the memory card slot and battery chamber. This may  
cause a fire or electric shock.  
Caution  
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may  
result in a minor or moderate injury.  
ƈ Leaking, overheating, or burst battery could result in fire or injury.  
ҮUse battery with the correct specification for the camera.  
ҮDo not short circuit, heat or dispose of battery in fire.  
ƈ Do not operate this camera with wet hands. This could pose a risk of electric shock.  
ҮDo not insert the battery with the polarities reversed.  
ƈ Remove the battery when not planning to use the camera for a long period of  
time. Battery may leak corrosive electrolyte and permanently damage the  
camera’s components.  
ƈ Do not fire the flash while it is in contact with hands or objects. Do not touch the  
flash after using it continuously. It may cause burns.  
Warning  
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could  
result in death or serious injury.  
ƈ Do not use the flash in close proximity to people or animals. Positioning the flash  
too close to your subject’s eyes may cause eyesight damage.  
ƈ For safety reasons keep this product and accessories out of reach of children or  
animals to prevent accidents e.g.:  
ҮSwallowing battery or small camera accessories. If an accident should occur,  
please consult a doctor immediately.  
ҮThere is the possibility of injury from the camera’s moving parts.  
ƈ Battery and camera may become hot during prolonged use and it may result in  
camera malfunction. Should this be the case, allow the camera to sit idle for a  
few minutes to allow it time to cool.  
ƈ Do not move the camera while it is switched on, if you are using the AC Charger.  
After use, always switch off the camera before unplugging the cable from the  
wall socket. Then make sure that any connector cords or cables to other devices  
are disconnected before moving the camera. Failure to do so may damage the  
cords or cables and cause a fire or electric shock.  
ƈ Take care not to touch the lens or lens cover to avoid taking an unclear image  
and possibly causing camera malfunction.  
ƈ Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

Instructions on how to use the memory card  
ƃ Be sure to format the memory card (see p.55) if you are using a newly  
purchased memory for the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot  
recognise, or if it contains images captured with a different camera.  
ƃ If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may  
become corrupted :  
- When the memory card is used incorrectly.  
- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording,  
deleting (formatting) or reading.  
ƃ Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or  
removed.  
ƃ Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data.  
ƃ Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory card’s  
performance. Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory  
card. Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung  
warranty.  
ƃ It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up e.g. floppy  
disks, hard disks, CD etc.  
ƃ If there is insufficient memory available  
ƃ The memory card is an electronic precision device.  
Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact.  
: A [Memory Full!] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To  
optimise the amount of memory in the camera, replace the memory card or  
delete unnecessary images stored on the memory card.  
ƃ Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong electronic or  
magnetic fields, e.g. near loud speakers or TV receivers.  
ƃ Please do not use or store in an environment where there are extremes in  
temperature.  
ƃ Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any  
liquid. Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth.  
ƃ Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.  
ƃ During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card  
is warm. This is perfectly normal.  
ƃ Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera.  
To use the memory card in this camera, format the memory card using this  
camera.  
ƃ Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card  
reader.

Important notes  
ƈ Extremes in temperature may cause problems.  
ƈ Camera Maintenance  
- 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.  
- 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.  
ƈ Caution on Using the Lens  
- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and  
deterioration of the image sensor.  
ƈ Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.  
- Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the  
lens.

static electricity.  
In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer  
again.  
ƈ Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera  
condition.  
ƈ If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to  
protect the memory card.  
- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.
