Cleaning
Before cleaning the camera, turn it off and remove the batteries.
• Never use chemically-treated dust cloths or strong solvents such as benzine or alcohol.
Camera Exterior
• Gently clean the exterior with a soft cloth. To remove stubborn stains, use a cloth that has
been moistened in a solution of water and neutral detergent and then thoroughly wrung out.
The camera should then be dried carefully using a dry cloth. After using the camera at the
seaside, clean it with a cloth that has been moistened in fresh water and then thoroughly
wrung out.
The Monitor
• Gently clean the monitor with a soft cloth.
Lens
• Use a lens blower (available from third-party suppliers) to remove dust and lint. Clean the
lens gently using a lens cleaning wipe.
Storage
• Remove the batteries and memory cards before putting the camera away for an extended
period. Store the camera in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated location.
• Periodically reinsert the batteries and check that the camera is functioning normally.
• Remove dust and lint from the body and rear caps before putting them in place.
• If the camera will be stored without a lens attached, attach the body cap to prevent dust
entering the camera. Be sure to replace the front and rear caps on the lens before putting it
away.
• Clean the camera before putting it away.
• Do not store the camera with insect repellent.
• Do not store the camera in areas where chemicals are handled, as this could cause
corrosion or other forms of damage.
• Leaving the lens dirty could encourage the growth of mold.
• If the camera has been left unused for a long period of time, inspect all parts before use. Be
sure to take a test shot to confi rm that the camera is functioning normally before using it on a
trip or on other important occasions.
