Caring for the Camera
Storage
When the camera will not be used for an extended period, replace the monitor cover,
remove the battery, and store the battery in a cool, dry area with the terminal cover
in place.
To prevent mold or mildew, store the camera in a dry, well-ventilated area.
Do not store your camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls or in locations that:
• are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
• are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as
televisions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above 50 °C (122 °F) or below –10 °C (14 °F)
Cleaning
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
