2 Warning
2.1. Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) to Electrostatically
Sensitive (ES) Devices
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Elec-
trostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices.
Examples of typical ES devices are IC (integrated circuits) and some field-effect transistors and
semiconductor "chip" components.
The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by electrostatic discharge
(ESD).
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any ESD on your
body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging ESD wrist strap,
which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as alumi-
num foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices.
4. Use only an antistatic solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “antistatic (ESD protected)” can
generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most
replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or compara-
ble conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material
to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
CAUTION :
Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the
brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity (ESD) suf-
ficient to damage an ES device).
2.2. How to Recycle the Lithium Ion Battery (U.S. Only)
ENGLISH A lithium ion battery that is recyclable powers the product you have
purchased. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to
recycle this battery.

3.5. General Description About Lead Free Solder (PbF)
The lead free solder has been used in the mounting process of all electrical components on the printed circuit boards used for this
equipment in considering the globally environmental conservation.
The normal solder is the alloy of tin (Sn) and lead (Pb). On the other hand, the lead free solder is the alloy mainly consists of tin
(Sn), silver (Ag) and copper (Cu), and the melting point of the lead free solder is higher approx.30°C (86°F) more than that of the
normal solder.
Distinction of P.C.B. Lead Free Solder being used
The letter of "PbF" is printed either foil side or components side

PbF
on the P.C.B. using the lead free solder.(See right figure)
Service caution for repair work using Lead Free Solder (PbF)
• The lead free solder has to be used when repairing the equipment for which the lead free solder is used.
(Definition: The letter of “PbF” is printed on the P.C.B. using the lead free solder.)
• To put lead free solder, it should be well molten and mixed with the original lead free solder.
• Remove the remaining lead free solder on the P.C.B. cleanly for soldering of the new IC.
• Since the melting point of the lead free solder is higher than that of the normal lead solder, it takes the longer time to melt the
lead free solder.
• Use the soldering iron (more than 70W) equipped with the temperature control after setting the temperature at 350±30°C
(662±86°F).
Recommended Lead Free Solder (Service Parts Route.)
• The following 3 types of lead free solder are available through the service parts route.
SVKZ000001-----------(0.3mm 100g Reel)
SVKZ000002-----------(0.6mm 100g Reel)
SVKZ000003-----------(1.0mm 100g Reel)

6.1. Error Code Memory Function
1. General Description
This unit is equipped with history of error code memory function, and can be memorized 16 error codes in sequence from the
latest. When the error is occurred more than 16, the oldest error is overwritten in sequence.
The error code is not memorized when the power supply is shut down forcibly.
(i.e., when the unit is powered on by the battery, the battery is pulled out)
The error code is memorized to Flash-ROM when the unit has just before powered off.
2. How to Display
The error code can be displayed by ordering the following procedure:
• Preparation
Attach the fully charged Battery, and insert the memory card.
• Step 1. The temporary cancellation of “Initial Settings”:
While pressing [ Playback ] button, [ Quick Menu/Return ] button and “[ RIGHT ] of Cursor buttons” simultaneously, turn the
Power on.
• Step 2. Execute the error code display mode:
Press [ MENU/SET ] button, [ Playback ] button and “[ LEFT ] of Cursor buttons” simultaneously with the step 1 condition.
The display is changed as shown below when the above buttons are pressed simultaneously.
Normal display → Error code display → Camera information display → Normal display → .....
History No.: • The error code can be memorized 16 error codes in sequence, however it is displayed 5 errors on the LCD.
Display can be changed by the following procedure:
• "[ UP] or [ DOWN ] of Cursor buttons": Each t.ime one presses, it scroll up or down by line.
• "[ LEFT ] or [ RIGHT ] of Cursor buttons": Each time one presses, it jump up or down by evry five line.
Error Occurred Date: •It is displayed "Year", "Month", "Day" and "Time" from the left in order.
•s ince it is acquired from "Clock setting data" of the unit, "00000000" (default) is
displayed if the clock had not been set at the time of error occurred .
Detecting Device: • The Error detecting Device/ Circuit is displayed .

Important Notice about “Error Code List”
About “*” indication:
The third digit from the left is different as follows.
- In case of 0 (example: 2B001000)
When the third digit from the left shows “0”, this error occurred under the condition of Initial Settings has been completed.
It means that this error is occurred basically at user side.
- In case of 8 (example: 2B801000)
When the third digit from the left shows “8”, this error occurred under the condition of Initial Settings has been released.
(Example; Factory assembling-line before unit shipment, Service mode etc.)
It means that this error is occurred at service side.
• Step 3. How to Exit from Error Code Display Mode:

Simply, turn the power off. (Since Error Code display mode is executed under the condition of temporary cancellation of
“Initial Settings”, it wake up with normal condition when turn off the power.)
NOTE:
The error code can not be initialized.
