Care and Storage
Cleaning the camera
When cleaning the camera, do not use solvents such as benzene or
paint thinner.
• Before cleaning, remove the batteries from the camera, or disconnect the
power plug of the AC adapter from the wall outlet.
• The exterior casing surface consists of paint and printing. Wiping the casing
with benzene or paint thinner may cause discoloration, or the paint or printing
to be removed.
• When the camera becomes dirty, wipe off the dust with a soft, dry cloth. For
stubborn dirt, dampen a cloth in diluted neutral detergent (kitchen detergent),
wring thoroughly and wipe. When finished, wipe the camera with a dry cloth.
• When using a chemical cloth, follow the safety precautions of the product.
After using the camera
If the camera is not to be used for a long period, remove the batteries
and ensure that the power plug of the AC adapter is disconnected
from the wall outlet.
• Leaving the batteries inside the camera for a long time may cause the battery
fluid to leak, resulting in malfunction of the unit.
• When storing, keep both camera and batteries in a cool place with low humidi-
ty and under constant temperature as much as possible.
Recommended temperature: 15° – 25°C (59° – 77°F)
