CARE INSTRUCTIONS
• As any soiling also represents a growth medium for microorganisms,
you should take care to keep the equipment clean.
For the camera
• Only clean the camera with a soft, dry cloth. Stubborn dirt should
first of all be covered with a well-thinned cleaning agent and then
wiped off with a dry cloth.
• To remove stains and fingerprints, wipe the adapter with a clean
lint-free cloth. Tougher dirt in hard to reach corners of the camera
body can be removed with a small brush.
• All mechanically operated bearings and sliding surfaces on your
camera are lubricated. Please remember this if you will not be
using the camera for a long period of time. To prevent the
lubrication points becoming gummed up, the camera shutter
should be released a number of times every three months. It is also
recommended that you repeatedly move and use all other controls.
For the lens
• Normally, a soft hair brush is sufficient to remove dust from the
outer lens elements. However, in case of more stubborn dirt, they
can be carefully cleaned with a very clean, soft cloth that is com–
pletely free of foreign matter, using circular motions from the inside
to the outside. We recommend micro-fiber cloths (available from
photographic and optical specialists) that are stored in a protective
container and can be washed at temperatures of up to 40°C/
104°F (without fabric softener, never iron!). Cloths for cleaning
glasses, which are impregnated with chemicals, should not be used
as they can damage the lens glass.
• The lens cap supplied also protects the lens from fingerprints and
the rain.
