We do not assume any responsibility or liability for difficulties

resulting from the use of lenses and accessories made by other

manufacturers.

FOR SAFE USE OFYOUR CAMERA

Although we have carefully designed this camera for safe operation,

please be sure to follow precautions given on this page.

• The electronic circuits inside the camera contain high voltage

working parts. Never attempt to disassemble the camera yourself.

• Never touch internal parts of the camera if they become exposed

from dropping the camera or for some other reason, as there is

danger of an electric shock.

• Wrapping the strap around your neck is dangerous. Make sure that

small children do not get the strap caught around their neck.

• Do not look directly at the sun through the camera, as viewing the

sun may damage your eyes, and/or parts of the camera (e.g.: shutter

curtains, etc.)

• Be sure to store batteries out of the reach of children. Seek medical

assistance immediately if accidentally swallowed.

• Do not use the flash near anyone's eyes, as it may hurt them. Be

particularly careful with the flash around infants.

• Never try to disassemble, short or recharge the battery. Also, do not

dispose of the battery in fire, as it may explode.

• Remove the batteries from the camera immediately if they become

hot or begin to smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.

2PRECAUTIONS FORYOUR CAMERA

Your Pentax camera is a high-precision mechanism.

Handle it with great care.

Precautions when taking pictures

• Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water,

or any other liquid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid

resistant. Should the camera get wet from rain, splashing water, or any

other liquid wipe it off immediately with a dry soft cloth.

• Do not drop the camera or allow it to hit solid objects. If the camera suffers

a shock or impact, take it to a Pentax service center for inspection.

• Be careful not to subject the camera to strong vibrations, shock or

pressure. Use a cushion to protect the camera when carrying it in a

motorcycle, car, boat, etc.

• Condensation on the interior or exterior of the camera may be

extremely harmful to the camera mechanism as it may cause rust.

Furthermore, if the camera is taken from warm temperature to a

subfreezing one or vice versa, the formation of icelets may cause

damage. In such a case, put the camera into a case or plastic bag so

that any changes in temperature difference is minimized. Do not

remove it from the bag until temperature has stabilized.

• Regular size color prints may cut off what appears on the extreme

edges of the film frame. Compose your picture with a margin of safety

at the edges.

Precautions for storage

• Avoid leaving the camera for extended periods in places where the

humidity and temperature are very high, such as in a car.

• Do not store the camera in a closet with moth balls or in an area where

chemicals are handled. Store it in a place with good dry air circulation

to prevent the growth of fungus.

Precautions for proper care

• Never touch the shutter curtain or mirror with your finger or any other object.

• Use a blower and lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens

or viewfinder.

• Never use solvents such as paint thinner, alcohol or benzene to clean

the camera.

• Electrical problems may often be caused by water, dirt or dust at points

of electrical contact. Also check for battery leakage, traces of dirt or

grease, or corrosion due to salinity or gas. If you cannot correct the

problems, have your camera inspected at a Pentax service center.

Repairs of this nature are not covered under the terms of the warranty

and charges may be assessed.

Other precautions

• The temperature range at which this camera functions properly is 50°C

to -10°C (122˚F to 14˚F).

• A camera which has been submerged in water usually cannot be

repaired. If such an accident should occur, it is advisable to contact a

Pentax Service Center immediately.

• To maintain optimum performance, it is recommended that the camera

be inspected every one or two years. If the camera has not been used

for an extended period, or is being prepared for an important

photographic session, it is recommended that you have the camera

inspected or test shoot with it.

• Repairs deemed necessary due to usage of this product in an industrial

or commercial application may not be covered under the terms of the

Pentax warranty.

• The PENTAX warranty provides only for the repair of defects in

materials or workmanship. Damage of any kind cannot be repaired at

any charge under the terms of the warranty. If the difficulty is caused as

a direct result of the product being used in conditions as outlined in the

"Precautions for Your Camera" section or any other operation contrary

to the instructions outlined in this manual, charges will be assessed

and a repair quotation will be provided.

PRECAUTIONS FOR BATTERY USAGE

• Use two 3V lithium batteries (CR2 type).

• Misuse of the battery can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating,

explosion, etc.The battery should be inserted correctly with regard to

polarity (+ and -) marked on the battery and the camera.

• Battery performance may be temporarily hindered in low temperatures,

but will recover in normal temperatures.

• Keep a spare battery on hand for replacement convenience when

shooting outdoors or while traveling.

• If the built-in flash is used continuously, the battery may become warm,

but it does not mean that the battery is faulty; it is one of the battery's

characteristics.

• Replace the batteries at the same time. Do not mix battery brands, type

or an old battery with a new one. It may cause explosion or overheating.
