PRECAUTIONS AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Do not use the Leica X2 in the immediate vicinity of devices with powerful
magnetic, electrostatic or electromagnetic fields (e.g. induction ovens, micro-
wave ovens, television sets or computer monitors, video game consoles, cell
phones, radio equipment).
• If you place the Leica X2 on or very close to a television set, its magnetic
field could interfere with picture recordings.
• The same applies for use in the vicinity of cell phones.
• Strong magnetic elds, e.g. from speakers or large electric motors, can
damage the stored data or the pictures.
• If the Leica X2 malfunctions due to the eects of electromagnetic elds,
remove the battery and then switch the camera on again.
Do not use the Leica X2 in the immediate vicinity of radio transmitters or
high-voltage power lines.
• Their magnetic elds can also interfere with picture recordings.
Protect the Leica X2 from contact with insect sprays and other aggressive
chemicals. Petroleum spirit, thinner and alcohol may not be used for cleaning.
• Certain chemicals and liquids can damage the Leica X2 body or the surface
finish.
• As rubber and plastics sometimes emit aggressive chemicals, they should
not remain in contact with the Leica X2 for extended periods.
Ensure that sand and dust cannot get into the Leica X2, e.g. on the beach.
• Sand and dust can damage the camera and the memory card. Take particu-
lar care when inserting and removing the card.
Ensure that water cannot get into the Leica X2, e.g. when it is snowing or
raining and on the beach.
• Moisture can cause malfunctions and even permanent damage to the Leica X2
and the memory card.
• If salt water spray gets onto the Leica X2, wet a soft cloth with tap water,
wring it out thoroughly and wipe the camera with it. Then wipe down thor-
oughly with a dry cloth.
Important:
Only the accessories specied and described in these instructions, and/or
those specified and described by Leica Camera AG, may be used with this
camera.
MONITOR
• If the Leica X2 is exposed to signicant temperature uctuations, condensation
can form on the monitor. Wipe it carefully with a soft dry cloth.
• If the Leica X2 is very cold when switched on, the monitor will initially be
slightly darker than normal. It will revert to its normal brightness once it has
warmed up.
• The monitor is manufactured using a high-precision process. This ensures
that, of the total of around 230,000 pixels, more than 99.995% work correctly
and only 0.005% remain dark or are always light. However, this is not a malfunc-
tion and it does not impair the reproduction of the picture.
