Do not attach any other material than the 
supplied label on the labeling position. 
When you attach the supplied label, be sure to 
attach it to the labeling position. Be careful that 
the label does not stick out.
When you carry or store the “Memory Stick,” 
put it in the case supplied with it. 
Do not touch the terminals of a “Memory 
Stick” with your hand or a metal object. 
Do not strike, bend or drop a “Memory Stick.” 
Do not disassemble or modify a “Memory 
Stick.”
Do not expose the “Memory Stick” to water. 
Avoid using or storing the “Memory Stick” in 
the following places:
 In a car parked in the sun, or at a high 
temperature.
Under direct sunlight.
In a humid place or near corrosive material.
Notes on use of the “Memory Stick 
Duo” (not supplied)
Be sure to insert the “Memory Stick Duo” into 
the “Memory Stick Duo” Adaptor when using 
the “Memory Stick Duo” with the camera.
Verify that you are inserting the “Memory Stick 
Duo” in the proper direction when inserting it 
into the “Memory Stick Duo” Adaptor.
Verify that you are inserting the “Memory Stick 
Duo” Adaptor in the proper direction when 
inserting it into the camera. Inserting it in the 
wrong direction may cause a malfunction.
Do not insert a “Memory Stick Duo” that is not 
inserted into a “Memory Stick Duo” Adaptor 
into a “Memory Stick”-compatible unit. This 
may cause a malfunction of the unit.
Note on use of the “Memory Stick 
PRO” (not supplied)
A “Memory Stick PRO” with a capacity of up to 
1 GB can be used with this camera.
The nickel-metal 
hydride batteries
Effective use of the battery
• Battery performance decreases in low-
temperature surroundings, and the battery 
life is shortened under such 
circumstances. To use the battery longer, 
we recommend you keep the battery 
stored in the supplied battery case, in a 
pocket close to your body to warm it, and 
insert it in your camera just before you 
start shooting. 
• If you shoot a lot using the zoom and 
flash, the battery power will be used up 
faster.
• We recommend having spare batteries 
handy for two or three times the expected 
shooting time, and try test shooting 
before the actually using the camera. 
• Do not expose the battery to water. The 
battery is not water-resistant.

Battery life
• The battery life is limited. Battery 
capacity decreases little by little as you 
use it more and more, and as time passes. 
When the battery operating time seems to 
have been considerably shortened, a 
probable cause is that the battery has 
reached the end of its life. 
• The battery life varies depending on 
storage, operating conditions, and 
environment, and is different for each 
battery.
The battery charger
• Do not charge any other batteries except 
the Sony nickel hydride battery using the 
supplied battery charger. If you charge 
other types of battery (manganese, 
alkaline, lithium, ni-cd batteries, etc.), 
this may cause leakage, explosion, or 
overheating of the battery, and personal 
scald or injury may be caused.
• Do not recharge a fully charged nickel 
hydride battery. This may cause leakage, 
explosion, or overheating of the battery.
• When charging a high capacity battery 
other than the supplied battery using the 
supplied battery charger, the full capacity 
of the battery may not be available.
• When the CHARGE lamp flashes, the 
battery may cause a malfunction if an 
unspecified battery was inserted. First, 
verify that the battery is specified for use 
with the charger. If the battery is 
specified for use with the charger, remove 
all the batteries from the battery charger, 
insert other batteries, such as new ones, 
and check that the battery charger works 
properly. When the battery charger works 
properly, the batteries may be the cause 
of the malfunction.
