Precautions
General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions
whenever using the EX-Z6/EX-Z7.
All references in this manual to “camera” refer to the
CASIO EX-Z6/EX-Z7 Digital Camera.
Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while
operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so
creates the risk of serious accident.
Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your
own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the
risk of electric shock when exposed. Always leave
maintenance and repair work up to a CASIO authorized
service center.
Keep the small parts and accessories of this camera out
of the reach of small children. If swallowed accidentally,
contact your physician immediately.
Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating
a motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the driver’s
vision and create the risk of accident.
Bundled with Photo Loader and Photohands
(pages 208, 211, 217)
Your camera comes bundled with Photo Loader, the
popular application that automatically loads images from
your camera to your PC. It also comes with Photohands,
and application that makes image retouching quick and
easy.
INTRODUCTION
13
Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subject’s
eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage
if it is fired too close to the eyes. This is especially true
with young children. When using the flash, the camera
should be at least one meter (3.3´) from the eyes of the
subject.
Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and
never let it get wet. Moisture creates the risk of fire and
electric shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain
or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera,
immediately turn it off. Next, remove the camera’s battery
and/or unplug the AC power cord from the power outlet,
and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized
service center. Using the camera under these conditions
creates the risk of fire and electric shock.
Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming
out of the camera, immediately turn it off. Next, taking
care you do not burn your fingers, remove the camera’s
battery and/or unplug the AC power cord from the power
outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO
authorized service center. Using the camera under these
conditions creates the risk of fire and electric shock. After
making sure there is no more smoke coming from the
camera, take it to your nearest CASIO authorized service
center for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
At least once a year, unplug the AC power cord from the
power outlet and clean the area around the prongs of the
plug. Dust build up around the prongs can create the risk
of fire.
If the camera’s case should ever become cracked due to
dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment,
immediately turn it off. Next, remove the camera’s battery
and/or unplug the AC power cord from the power outlet,
and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized
service center.
Never use the camera inside of an aircraft or in any other
area where its use is prohibited. Doing so creates the risk
of accident.
Physical damage and malfunction of this camera can
cause the data stored in its memory to be deleted. Always
keep backup copies of data by transferring them to
personal computer memory.
Never open the battery cover while an image is being
recorded. Doing so will not only make storage of the
current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image
data already stored in file memory.
INTRODUCTION
14
Test for proper operation before using the
camera!
Before using the camera to record important images, make
sure you first record a number of test images and check the
results to ensure that the camera is configured correctly
and operating properly.
Data Error Precautions
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision
digital components. Any of the following creates the risk
of corruption of data in file memory.
Removing the battery or memory card while the
camera is performing a record or memory access
operation
Removing the battery, removing the memory card
while the operation lamp is still flashing green after
you turn off the camera
Disconnecting the USB cable while a data
communication operation is being performed
Low battery power
Other abnormal operations
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to
appear on the monitor screen (page 232). Follow the
instructions provided by the message to eliminate the
cause of the error.
Operating conditions
This camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging
from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
Do not use or keep the camera in the following areas.
In areas subject to direct sunlight
In areas subject to high humidity or dust
Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject
to temperature extremes
Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the
sun
In areas subject to strong vibration
INTRODUCTION
15
Condensation
When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or
otherwise expose it to a sudden change of temperature,
there is the possibility that condensation can form on the
exterior or on interior components. Condensation can
cause malfunction of the camera, so you should avoid
exposing it to conditions that might cause condensation.
To keep condensation from forming, place the camera
into a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is
much warmer or colder than your current location. Leave
it in the plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a
chance to reach the same temperature as the new
location. If condensation does form, remove the battery
from the camera and leave the battery cover open for a
few hours.
Power Supply
Use only the special NP-20 rechargeable lithium ion
battery to power this camera. Use of any other type of
battery is not supported.
This camera does not have a separate battery for the
clock. The date and time will reset whenever the camera
is not supplied power by the battery for about 30 hours.
Be sure to reconfigure these settings after power is
interrupted (page 163).
Never remove the battery from the camera while the
camera is turned on. Doing so can damage the camera. If
you mistakenly remove the battery, immediately reinsert it
into the camera and press the power button to turn power
back on.
Lens
Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of
the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause
malfunction.
You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain
types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should
be straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and
does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
INTRODUCTION
16
Caring for your camera
Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can
interfere with proper image recording. Never touch the
lens with your fingers. You can remove dust particles
from the lens surface by using a lens blower to blow them
off. Next, wipe the surface of the lens with a soft lens
cloth.
• Fingerprints, dirt, and other foreign matter on the flash
can interfere with proper operation of the camera. Avoid
touching the flash. If the flash becomes dirty, wipe it clean
with a soft, dry cloth.
If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it with a
soft, dry cloth.
Monitor Screen Images
• The images that normally appear on the monitor screen
during image playback are smaller than normal, and so
you cannot see all of the detail of the actual image. Your
camera has an image zoom feature (page 126) which you
can use to enlarge the monitor screen image. You can
use this feature for on-the-spot checks of important
images.
Other
The camera may become slightly warm during use. This
does not indicate malfunction.

Power Requirements
Your camera is powered by a rechargeable lithium ion
battery (NP-20).
The battery is not fully charged when you use the
camera for the first time after purchasing it. You need
to charge the battery before using the camera for the
first time.
To charge the battery
1.
Correctly positioning the positive and
negative terminals of the battery, load the
lithium ion battery into the battery charger.
T
-+
Making sure that the positive and negative contacts
are aligned correctly, load the battery into the battery
charger. Note that the battery will not charge
properly if it is not positioned correctly in the battery
charger.
GETTING READY
32
2.
Plug the battery charger into a household
power outlet.
This will cause the [CHARGE] lamp to turn red.
Charging will take about 90 minutes.
[CHARGE] lamp
AC power cord
Battery Charger
NOTE
The bundled battery charger is designed for
operation with any power supply in the range of 100V
to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. This means the battery
charger can be used in various countries around the
world. Note, however, that there may be some
problems with the AC power cord withstand voltage
and with the configuration of power outlet shapes in
certain geographic areas. Before trying to use the
battery charger in another country, be sure to check
with your travel agent concerning the local power
supply.
GETTING READY

3.
The [CHARGE] lamp goes out when charging
is complete.
4.
After charging is complete, unplug the battery
charger from the power outlet, and remove
the battery from it.
Always unplug the battery charger from the power
outlet and remove the battery whenever you are not
charging.
IMPORTANT!
If the battery or battery charger is very hot or cold
when you start charging or if it becomes hot during
charging, the battery charger will enter a standby
state, which is indicated when its [CHARGE] lamp
goes out. Charging will resume when the temperature
returns to the allowable charging temperature range,
which is indicated when the [CHARGE] lamp turns red.
Charging
the
battery while it is still warm immediately
after removing it from the camera can result in only
partial charging. Give
the
battery time to cool before
charging it.
Battery discharges slightly even when it is left
without loading it into the camera. Because of this, it
is recommended that you charge
the
battery
immediately before you need to use it.
Charging the battery may cause interference with TV
and radio reception. If this happens, plug the charger
into an outlet that is further away from the TV or
radio.
Dirty charger contacts and/or battery terminals can
make proper charging impossible. Be sure to wipe
contacts and terminals occasionally with a dry cloth
to keep them clean.

Low Battery Indicator
The following shows how the battery capacity indicator on
the monitor screen changes as battery power is used. The
indicator means that remaining battery power is low.
Note that you will not be able to record images while the
battery indicator is . Charge the battery immediately
whenever either of these indicators appears.
IMPORTANT!
See page 250 for information about battery life.
Due to differences in the power requirements of each
mode, the battery indicator may show a lower level in
the PLAY mode than what it shows in the REC
mode. This is normal, and does not indicate
malfunction.
