Cleaning
Do not use volatile organic solvents such as alcohol or thinner, chemical
detergents, anticorrosive agents, or anti-fogging agents.
Caring for the Camera
Lens
Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with
a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one
end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To
remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a
blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that
starts at the center of them and working toward the edges. If this fails,
clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens
cleaner.
Monitor
Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other
stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to
apply pressure.
Body
Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand, then wipe gently with a
soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or
dusty environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt with a dry cloth
lightly dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Note that
foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not
covered by the warranty.
