need it.

WHEN THE CAMERA NEEDS CLEANING
CLEANING THE CAMERA EXTERIOR
Wipe the outside of the camera with a soft dry cloth. If there is heavy soil
use a cloth dampened with a natural detergent. Wipe again with soft dry
cloth.
To clean the lens make sure the camera is turned off, then blow off any loose
dust or dirt or use a lens and camera cleaning brush. Next, blow on the lens
and wipe off all moisture with a soft dry cloth.
Clean the LCD monitor also with a soft dry cloth.
CLEANING BATTERY TERMINALS
When the battery terminals or contacts on the battery cover and
compartment become dark (oxidized) you should wipe them with a clean
dry cloth.
If the battery terminal is dirty, it may shorten the life of the battery.
c
CAUTION
NEVER use volatile chemicals such as alcohol, paint thinner or benzine.
They will damage the camera exterior. The same is true for the battery
compartment.
STORING THE CAMERA
