General Guidelines
– Keep the camera away from moisture and high temperatures.
– If the outside of the camera needs to be cleaned, wipe it with a clean,
dry cloth. Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners on it.
– Keep the lens cover closed whenever the camera is not in use.
Cleaning the Lens
The steps below describe how to clean the lens.
1. Blow gently on the lens to remove loose dust and dirt.
2. Moisten the lens by breathing on it as you would breath on eyeglass
lenses when cleaning them.
Do not use cleaning solutions unless they are designed specifically
for camera lenses.
3. Wipe the lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or lens-cleaning tissue.
Do not use chemically treated eyeglass lens tissues. The lens may
be scratched if you wipe it too firmly or if it is dry.
