1. Introduction
Nokia Camera Flash enables you to take photos and video clips in poor lighting
conditions. Nokia Camera Flash can be connected to compatible Nokia camera
phones, such as the Nokia 7610 phone. To check the compatibility of your Nokia
phone, contact your dealer or Nokia Customer Care.
Nokia Camera Flash includes a xenon flash tube and an LED light. You can use the
flash to take pictures of a subject up to 3 meters away. You can use the LED to
record video clips of subjects no further away than 0.5 meter.
Do not use the flash on people or animals at close range.
Note that the flash is only meant for use in poor lighting conditions or the dark. If
you use the flash in normal indoor lighting or in daylight, some of your photos may
be overexposed.
Read this user guide carefully before using Nokia Camera Flash. More detailed
information is provided in the user guide of your own phone. Do not use this user
guide in place of the user guide for the phone, which provides important safety
and maintenance information.

4. Battery information
This device is intended for use when supplied with power from a CR2 3V, Lithium battery.
The use of any other types may invalidate any approval or warranty, and may be dangerous.
Always switch the device off before removing the battery. Ensure the correct polarity is
observed when inserting batteries.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic
object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-
) terminals of the battery. This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in
your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the
connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may not
work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly
limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire! Dispose of batteries according to local regulations.
Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.

components can be damaged.
Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.

moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic circuit boards.
•
•
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
