Caring for the Camera

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 sand or salt with a cloth lightly dampened
in distilled water and dry thoroughly. Important: Dust or
other foreign matter inside the camera may cause damage

viewfinder

These glass elements are easily damaged. Remove dust
and lint with a blower. If using an aerosol blower, keep the

fingerprints and other stains, apply a small amount of lens
cleaner to a soft cloth and clean with care.

fingerprints and other stains, wipe the surface lightly with a
soft cloth or chamois leather. Do not apply pressure, as this
could result in damage or malfunction.
