Caring for your camera
Cleaning the camera
TIP: If your camera needs cleaning beyond what is
described in this section, take the camera to a camera
store that specializes in cleaning digital cameras.
Cleaning your camera not only keeps it looking its best, it
also improves the quality of your photos. It is especially
important to clean the lens regularly because dust particles
and fingerprints can mar the quality of any photos you take.
To clean your camera, you will need lens-cleaning tissue and
a soft, dry, lint-free cloth commonly available at photo-
specialty stores. You can also purchase these items in a
camera-cleaning kit.
NOTE: You should purchase lens-cleaning tissue that has not
been chemically treated. Some chemically treated lens
tissue can cause scratching of the lens and Image
Display.
Cleaning the camera lens
Do the following to remove any fingerprints, dust, and so
forth that have accumulated on the lens.
1. Slide the lens cover to uncover the lens.
2. Blow gently on the lens to remove dust.
3. Lightly wipe the lens with lens-cleaning tissue, using a
circular motion.
