Maintenance and Troubleshooting A-2

◗

Avoid sudden temperature changes, which can cause
moisture to form on the camera and options. Keep the
camera and options in a case or bag if you need to move
them from a cold environment to a warm one. Allow
time for the camera and options to adjust to temperature
changes before using them.

Cleaning the Camera

◗

Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe the camera free of dust.

◗

Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Don’t use liquid or
aerosol cleaners.

◗

To clean the lens, first blow off any loose dust or dirt.
Then breathe on the lens and wipe off all moisture with
a soft, lint-free cloth or lens cleaning tissue. To avoid
scratching the lens, don’t press too hard.

◗

If necessary, clean the battery contacts with a dry cloth.

◗

If the LCD screen gets fingerprints or smudges on it, use
a soft, damp cloth to lightly wipe the screen.

Storing the Camera

◗

When you’re not using the camera, make sure the
camera is turned off and the lens is retracted. Attach the
lens cap to protect the lens.

◗

When the camera is not used for long periods of time,
remove the batteries and store them at a low temperature
in a dry location. This prevents damage to the camera
from battery leaks or corrosion.

Do not store the camera in the following locations:

◗

Where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, for example,
on a car dashboard

◗

Near sources of bright light or high humidity

◗

Near heat sources or in a closed car or trunk

◗

In areas of excessive dirt or dust

◗

Where it will be exposed to strong vibrations or
magnetic fields
