The CE identification of our products documents adherence to the
fundamental requirements of the valid EU guidelines.
WARNING MESSAGES
• Modern electronic components react sensitively to electrostatic dis-
charge. As people can easily pick up charges of tens of thousands of
volts, by walking on synthetic carpets for example, a discharge can occur
when you touch your Leica X2, particularly if it is placed on a conductive
surface. If only the camera housing is affected, this discharge is harm-
less to the electronics. However, despite built-in safety circuits, the outer
contacts, such as those on the base of the camera, should not be touched
if at all possible for safety reasons. For any cleaning of the contacts, do
not use an optical micro-fiber cloth (synthetic); use a cotton or linen cloth
instead. Before touching the contacts, you can make sure you discharge
any electrostatic charge by deliberately touching a heating or water pipe
(conductive, earthed material). You can also avoid soiling and oxidization
of the contacts by storing your Leica X2 in a dry place with the lens cap
attached.
• You should exclusively use the recommended accessories to prevent
faults, short circuits or electric shock.
• Do not attempt to remove parts of the body (covers); specialist repairs
can be carried out only at authorized service centers.

segregated waste collection systems)
This device contains electrical and/or electronic components and should
therefore not be disposed of in general household waste! Instead it should
be disposed of at a recycling collection point provided by the local authority.
This costs you nothing.
If the device itself contains replaceable (rechargeable) batteries, these must
be removed first and, if necessary, also be disposed of in line with the rel-
