General Maintenance and Safety...

n

To keep from damaging your DC20

camera, avoid exposing it to moisture
and extreme temperatures.

n

Clean the outside of the camera

by wiping it with a clean, dry cloth.
Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners
or organic solvents on the camera or
any of its parts.

n

Never disassemble or touch the inside

of the camera. This could result in
electrical shock.

n

If you notice smoke or a strange smell

coming from the camera, immediately
turn the camera off, wait a few minutes
until the camera cools, and remove
the battery.

Cleaning the Camera Lens
1

Blow gently on the lens to remove
dust and dirt.

2

Moisten the lens by breathing lightly on it.

3

Wipe the lens gently with a soft, lint-free
cloth or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue.

.

Do not use cleaning solutions unless they
are designed specifically for camera
lenses. Do not wipe the camera lens with
chemically treated eyeglass lens tissues
as it may scratch the lens.

Storing the Camera

Remove the battery if the camera will not be
used for an extended period of time. This
will prevent camera damage from battery leaks
or corrosion.
