Safety Information

• Do not look at the sun through the viewfinder. Viewing the sun or

other strong light source through the viewfinder could cause

permanent visual impairment.

• Do not disassemble the camera. Touching the internal parts could

result in injury. In the event of a malfunction take the product to

an authorized service center for inspection.

• Avoid contact with liquid crystal. Should the LCD display break,

care should be taken to avoid injury due to broken glass. Prevent

the liquid from touching the skin, eyes, or mouth.

• Observe proper precautions when handling batteries. The camera

uses only size AA batteries. Batteries may leak or explode if

handled improperly. Remove the batteries from the camera if you

are going to store the camera for an extended period of time.

Ensure the camera is turned off before inserting or removing

batteries. Do not expose batteries to flame or excessive heat.

Discontinue use immediately if you notice any changes in the

battery such as discoloration, deformation or leakage.

• Observe caution when operating the flash. Do not use the flash

close to anyone's eyes. This can cause temporary damage to

eyesight. Particular care should be observed when imaging

infants - keep the flash at a distance of at least 1 meter from

infants' eyes.

• WARNING: Handling the USB and Video cables on this product

may expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of

California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Wash your hands after handling.

illustrations to familiarize your self with the terms used in this

manual.

Front View

1. Shutter Button: Press this button to capture images,

or to select menu options.

2. Integral Flash: The flash allows the camera to

capture images in low light conditions and can

V3765 Digital Camera User’s Manual

also be used in bright conditions to fill unwanted

shadows.

3. Self-Timer LED: When the Self-Timer option is

selected this LED blinks for ten seconds after the

Shutter Button is pressed. At the end of the ten-

second countdown the camera captures an

image.

4. Light Sensor: Light measurements are made with

this sensor. The camera detects the ambient light

level and determines whether or not the flash

should fire. Be careful not to block this sensor while

capturing images.

5. Viewfinder: The viewfinder helps you frame an

image. The actual image, however, is captured

with the lens and not the viewfinder. For macro

shots (close ups) use the LCD display for framing

accuracy.

6. Lens: The lens focuses light onto the image sensor.

For the optimal image quality, care should be

taken to ensure that the lens remains free of dust,

fingerprints, and scratches.

7. Microphone: Records audio when you use the

camera for capturing movie clips.
