Caring for Your Camera
Cleaning
Lens/
Viewfinder
The key to cleaning these glass par ts is to not touch them with your
fingers. Use a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached
to one end that you pump to produce a stream of air out the other) to
remove dust or lint. To remove fingerprints or other stains that can not
be removed with a blower, wipe the lens or viewfinder with a soft cloth,
using a spiral motion that star ts in the center of the lens and works out
to the edges.
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.
Camera Body
Use a blower to remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with a soft, dry
cloth. After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand
or salt with a cloth lightly dampened with fresh water, then dr y thor-
oughly.
Storage
When the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery after
checking to make sure that the camer a is off and the lens cover closed. Do not store
your camera in locations that:
• are poorly ventilated or damp
• are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as tele-
visions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above 50°C (122°F) or below –10°C (14°F)
• are subject to humidities of over 60%
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile c hemicals
