Lens
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of
the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause
malfunction.
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain
types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should
be straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and
does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
■
Caring for your camera
• Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can
interfere with proper image recording. Never touch the
lens with your fingers. You can remove dust particles
from the lens surface by using a lens blower to blow them
off. Next, wipe the surface of the lens with a soft lens
cloth.
• Fingerprints, dirt, and other foreign matter on the flash
can interfere with proper operation of the camera. Avoid
touching the flash. If the flash becomes dirty, wipe it clean
with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it with a
soft, dry cloth.
■
Other
• The camera may become slightly warm during use. This
does not indicate malfunction.
