Camera care
(Cleaning the camera
Exterior:
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth in mild
soapy water and wring well. Wipe the camera with the damp cloth and then dry
it with a dry cloth. If you have used the camera at the beach, use a cloth soaked
in clean water and wrung well.
Monitor:
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Lens:
• Blow dust off the lens with a commercial blower, then wipe gently with a lens
cleaner.
(Storage
• When storing the camera for extended periods, remove batteries, AC adapter
and card, and keep in a cool, dry place that is well ventilated.
• Periodically insert batteries and test the camera functions.
Note
• Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or chemically treated
cloth.
• Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
Note
•
Avoid leaving the camera in places where chemical products are handled since
this may result in corrosion.
