We have paid close attention to the safety of this product. When using
this product, we request your special attention regarding items marked
with the following symbols.
Warning
Do not attempt to take the camera apart or remodel the camera. High
voltages are present within the camera, and there is therefore a danger of
electric shocks if the camera is taken apart.
If the inside of the camera should become exposed as a result of, for
example, the camera being dropped, please do not under any
circumstances touch such exposed portions, as there is a danger of
receiving an electric shock.
To avoid the risk of it being swallowed by mistake, keep the SD Memory
Card out of the reach of small children. Seek medical attention immediately
if a card is accidentally swallowed.
Wrapping the strap of the camera around your neck is also dangerous.
Please take care that small children do not hang the strap around their
necks.
Use an AC adapter that is of the power and voltage specified for exclusive
use with this product. The use of an AC adapter other than that specified
exclusively for use with this product may cause fire or electric shocks.
If the camera emits smoke or a strange smell, or in the event of any other
irregularity, stop using the camera immediately, remove the batteries or
unplug the AC adapter, and contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.
Continued use of the camera may result in fire or electric shock.
During thunderstorms, unplug and discontinue use of the AC adapter.
Continued use could cause equipment failure, a fire, or electric shock.

Caution
Never try to disassemble or short the batteries. Also, do not dispose of the
batteries in a fire, as they may explode.
Do not charge any batteries other than rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. The
batteries could explode or catch fire. Batteries for use with this camera
other than Ni-MH batteries cannot be charged.
Do not place your finger on the flash when it is discharging as there is a
risk of burns.
Do not discharge the flash while it is touching your clothing as there is a
risk of discoloring.
If any of the battery leakage should come in contact with your eyes, do not
rub them. Flush your eyes with clean water and get medical attention
immediately.
If any of the battery leakage should come in contact with skin or clothes,
wash the affected areas thoroughly with water.
Remove the batteries from the camera immediately if it becomes hot or
begins to smoke. Be careful not to burn yourself during removal.
Some portions of the camera heat up during use, so please take care, as
there is a risk of low temperature burns if such portions are held for long
periods of time.
Should the LCD 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
in your mouth.
This camera uses two AA alkaline, AA lithium, AA Ni-MH or AA nickel
manganese batteries. Do not use batteries other than those specified here.
Using some other type of battery may cause the camera to function poorly,
or the batteries may rupture or cause a fire.
AA alkaline, AA lithium and AA nickel manganese batteries cannot be
recharged. Do not try to take the batteries apart. The batteries may rupture
or leak if you try to charge them or take them apart.
Do not remove the external seal of the battery. If the seal is removed, the
battery may short and may cause a fire, rupture, leak or heat.
When replacing the batteries, do not combine different brands, types or
capacities. Also, do not combine old batteries with new ones. Doing so may
cause the batteries to rupture or cause a fire.
Do not insert the batteries with the positive (+) and negative (–) poles in the
wrong orientation. Doing so may cause the batteries to rupture or cause a fire.
Handling Precautions for Batteries

Caution
Do not place heavy objects on the AC plug cord, allow heavy objects to
drop onto it or allow the AC plug cord to become damaged due to
excessive bending. If the AC plug cord becomes damaged, consult a
PENTAX Service Center.
Do not short or touch the output terminals of the product while it is still
plugged in.
Do not plug in the AC plug cord with wet hands. This can cause an
electrical shock.
Do not subject the product to strong impacts or allow it to drop onto a hard
surface. This can cause a malfunction.
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.
Take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in the package
with you when traveling. This will be useful if you experience problems
abroad.
When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still
working properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at
a wedding or during traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be
guaranteed if recording, playback or transferring your data to a computer,
etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media
(SD Memory Card), etc.
The lens on this camera is not interchangeable. The lens is not removable.
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol or
benzene.
Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular care
should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.
Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be
avoided. Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent
the camera from becoming moldy during storage.
About the AC Adapter
Care to be Taken During Handling
4
As this camera is not waterproof, do not use the camera where it may come
in contact with rain, water or any other liquid.
Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shock, or
pressure. Use a cushion to protect the camera when it is subjected to the
vibrations of a motorbike, car, ship, etc.
The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F).
The LCD monitor will become black at a high temperature but will return to
normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
The response speed of the
LCD monitor
becomes slow at low temperatures.
This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.
Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain
high performance.
If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation
may form on the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore put the
camera in a bag or plastic bag, and take the camera out when the
difference in temperature has subsided.
Be careful not to allow dirt, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases or salt to
enter the camera as this may damage the camera. Wipe away any
raindrops or water droplets and allow the camera to dry.
Refer to “Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card” (p.26) regarding
the SD Memory Card.
Please note that formatting an SD memory card or built-in memory will
delete all data; however it may still be possible to recover that data using
off-the-shelf data recovery software. Please manage your camera’s
memory at your own risk.
Please do not press forcefully on the LCD monitor. This could cause
breakage or malfunction.
Be careful not to sit down with the camera in your back pocket as this may
damage the exterior of the camera or the LCD monitor.
When using a tripod with the camera, be careful not to overtighten the
screw in the tripod socket on the camera.

Battery Level Indicator
You can check the battery level by the w indicator on the LCD monitor.
In general, battery performance may temporarily deteriorate as
the temperature decreases. Be sure to take spare batteries when
using the camera in a cold region and keep the batteries warm by
placing them in your pocket or inside your coat. Battery
performance that has deteriorated due to cold temperature will
return to normal performance when the batteries reach room
temperature.
Due to their characteristics, AA alkaline batteries may not allow
the camera to make full use of its capabilities, and therefore they
are not recommended except for emergency use.
Due to their characteristics, AA alkaline batteries and nickel
manganese batteries may not allow the camera to make full use
of its capabilities when used at cold temperatures. Use of AA
lithium batteries is recommended when the camera is used at cold
temperatures.
Be sure to take spare batteries with you when traveling abroad or
to a cold region, or if you intend to take a lot of pictures.

Precautions When Using an SD Memory Card
The SD Memory Card is equipped with a
write-protect switch. Setting the switch to
LOCK protects the existing data by
prohibiting recording of new data, deletion
of existing data or formatting of the card.
r
appears on the LCD monitor when the
card is write-protected.
Care should be taken when removing the SD Memory Card immediately after
using the camera, as the card may be hot.
Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn the camera off while data is being
saved to the card, images or sound files are being played back, or the camera
is connected to a computer with the USB/AV cable, as this may cause the
data to be lost or the card to be damaged.
Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away
from water and store away from high temperature.
Do not remove the SD Memory Card during formatting as this may damage
the card and render it unusable.
The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following
circumstances. PENTAX does not accept any liability for data that is deleted
(1) when the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) when the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical
interference.
(3) when the card has not been used for a long time.
(4) when the card is ejected or the batteries are removed while the data on
the card is being recorded or accessed.
The SD Memory Card has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time,
the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a
backup of important data on a computer.
Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or
electrical interference.
Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed
to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may
stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in the
memory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.
For information on compatible SD Memory Cards, visit the PENTAX website
or contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.

Getting Started
Choose the number of pixels (size) and quality level (data compression
rate) of still pictures according to how you intend to use the pictures you
have taken.
Higher quality levels and numbers of pixels produce clearer images, but
the resulting increase in data volume reduces the total number of
pictures that can be taken (stored in the camera's built-in memory or on
the SD Memory Card).
The quality of the captured photo or printed picture also depends on the
quality level, exposure compensation, resolution of the printer and a
variety of other factors, so you do not need to select more than the
required number of pixels. As a rough guide, i (1600×1200) is
adequate for making postcard-size prints. Refer to the table below for the
appropriate settings according to use.
Appropriate Number of Recorded Pixels According to Use
The default setting is a (3072×2304).
Appropriate Quality Level According to Use
The default setting is D (Better).
