8 Troubleshooting / Maintenance
To prevent the lens from becoming scratched, always attach the lens cover when the camera is
not being used. If the lens becomes dirty or smudged, do not try to wipe or rub the lens clean
with any cloth other than one intended for optics use. If necessary, dampen the optical cloth or
tissue with water and lightly wipe the lens. Allow to air dry before use or attaching the lens
cover. The LCD protective screen may also be cleaned with a dampened optical cloth or tissue.
The camera body may be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth dampened with water. Do not use any
solvents.
It is normal for the batteries to wear out with use and they will need to be replaced after several
hundred charge cycles. The Li-ion battery packs require special care when not used for extended
periods of time. It is recommended to not leave a battery pack in the charger during storage.
When charged, the battery pack(s) should be removed from the charger and stored at ambient
conditions between 50 – 80
o F and less than 70 % relative humidity as in a home or office. They
should not be stored in a warehouse that is not climate controlled. It is also recommended that at
least once every other month during storage the battery pack(s) be placed in the charger and
topped off. The batteries should not be allowed to fully discharge and then be stored for extended
periods of time. This will significantly shorten the charge cycle lifetime and capacity of the
batteries. During normal use the battery pack(s) should also be charged at ambient conditions
between 50 – 80
o F. Significantly higher or lower temperatures will not allow the battery pack(s)
to be charged to full capacity and will also shorten their charge cycle lifetime.
Do not attempt to disassemble the camera. This will void the warranty.
