NOTICE

• Use SD/SDHC/SDXC cards only. Never use other types of cards.
If you accidently insert another type of card into the camera, contact an authorized distributor or
service center. Do not try to remove the card by force.
• Regularly back up important data to a computer or other storage device to prevent accidental loss.
• OLYMPUS accepts no liability for any loss of data associated with this device.
• Be careful with the strap when you carry the camera. It could easily catch on stray objects and
cause serious damage.
• Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

• Before transporting the camera, remove a tripod and all other non-OLYMPUS accessories.
• Do not touch electric contacts on cameras.

color failure, ghosting on the image pickup device, or may possibly cause fi res.
• Do not push or pull severely on the lens.
• Before storing the camera for a long period, remove the batteries. Select a cool, dry location for
storage to prevent condensation or mold from forming inside the camera. After storage, test the
camera by turning it on and pressing the shutter button to make sure that it is operating normally.
•
The camera may malfunction if it is used in a location where it is subject to a magnetic/electromagnetic
fi eld, radio waves, or high voltage, such as near a TV set, microwave, video game, loud speakers,
large monitor unit, TV/radio tower, or transmission towers. In such cases, turn the camera off and on
again before further operation.
• Always observe the operating environment restrictions described in the camera’s manual.
• Insert the battery carefully as described in the operating instructions.
• Before loading, always inspect the battery carefully for leaks, discoloration, warping, or any other
abnormality.
• Always unload the battery from the camera before storing the camera for a long period.
• When storing the battery for a long period, select a cool location for storage.
• Power consumption by the camera varies depending on which functions are used.
• During the conditions described below, power is consumed continuously and the battery becomes
exhausted quickly.
• The zoom is used repeatedly.
• The shutter button is pressed halfway repeatedly in shooting mode, activating the auto focus.
• A picture is displayed on the monitor for an extended period of time.
• GPS is used.
• Using an exhausted battery may cause the camera to turn off without displaying the battery level
warning.
• If the battery’s terminals get wet or greasy, camera contact failure may result. Wipe the battery well
with a dry cloth before use.
• Always charge a battery when using it for the fi rst time, or if it has not been used for a long period.
• When operating the camera with battery power at low temperatures, try to keep the camera and
spare battery as warm as possible. A battery that has run down at low temperatures may be
restored after it is warmed at room temperature.
• Before going on a long trip, and especially before traveling abroad, purchase extra batteries. A
recommended battery may be diffi cult to obtain while traveling.
• For plug-in type USB-AC adapter:
Connect the plug-in type USB-AC adapter F-5AC correctly by plugging it vertically into the wall
