CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Be sure to read this information to ensure that you use your camera correctly.
Places to Avoid
Do not store or use the camera in the following places or locations:
• Very humid, dirty or dusty places.
• In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme increases in temperature such as in a closed vehicle
during summer.
• Extremely cold places.
• Places subject to strong vibrations.
• Places affected by smoke or steam.
• Places subject to strong magnetic fields (such as near motors, transformers or magnets.)
• Avoid contact with chemicals such as pesticides, next to rubber or vinyl products.
• Do not expose the camera to sand. In sandy locations such as beaches or deserts, or in locations where
there is wind-borne sand, ensure that the camera is not exposed to sand. This can cause irrepairable
damage.
Storing the camera
If you do not intend to use the camera for a prolonged period of time, transfer the pictures from your camera
to your computer (if necessary), then remove the batteries before storing the camera.
Cleaning your Camera
Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens and LCD surface, then wipe lightly with a soft, dust-free-dry
cloth. If any soiling remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of lens cleaning paper and
wipe gently.
Do not scratch hard objects against the lens, LCD screen or viewfinder, as these surfaces can easily be
damaged. Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dust-free-dry cloth. Do not use volatile substances such
as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may cause chemical reaction with the camera s body, thereby
causing deformaties or removes the coating of the camera.
When traveling overseas
Do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject the camera to
violent shocks and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible.
