KODAK PalmPix Camera
User's Guide
General Maintenance, Safety, and Tips

  • To keep from damaging your camera, avoid exposing it to moisture and extreme temperatures.

  • Clean the outside of the camera by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on the camera or any of its parts.

  • Do not allow any chemicals, such as suntan lotion to come into contact with the surface of the camera.

  • Never disassemble or touch the inside of the camera.

  • Wipe the lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue.

  • If pictures appear too dark when viewing on a computer, increase the available light source when taking pictures.

Using Your Batteries

  • Kodak recommends KODAK PHOTOLIFE AAA Alkaline Batteries, or KODAK AAA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries.

  • Remove the batteries when the camera is stored for extended periods of time.

  • Always follow your battery manufacturer's directions fully. Do not attempt to disassemble, short circuit, or subject the battery to high temperature or fire.

  • Replace all batteries of a set at the same time. New batteries should not be mixed with used ones. Do not mix rechargeable and nonrechargeable batteries. Do not mix alkaline or Ni-MH types of batteries. Do not mix different grades or brands of batteries. Failure to observe this precaution may result in some batteries in a set being driven beyond their normal exhaust point and increase their possibility of leakage.

  • If you elect to use alkaline batteries in your camera, you will obtain better performance from "photo-flash grade" alkaline batteries, such as KODAK PHOTOLIFE alkaline batteries. These types of batteries last more than twice as long in digital cameras as ordinary alkaline batteries. Alkaline batteries are not rechargeable, do not attempt to recharge them in a charger.

  • When using the camera, we recommend limiting continuous Preview or Review to less than 10-minutes per session.

  • When disposing of batteries, follow the manufacturer's instructions and all federal, state, and local regulations. Kodak suggests customers take advantage of any community battery recycling programs that may exist in your area. Contact your local waste remover or recycler for details.
