Cleaning the CCD
Cleaning the CCD - continued
1
Perform steps 1 to 5 in “Determining whether cleaning
is required” to swing the mirror up.
• Never disconnect the AC power adapter during cleaning as this can result
in damage to the camera shutter.
2
Use a blower to remove any soiling on the CCD surface.
3
Check that all the soiling has been removed and then
hold down both the self-timer button “
!
” and the AE
lock button “AE-L” as you switch the camera off. Then
disconnect the AC power adapter from the camera.
• When you switch the camera off, the mirror drops down and the shutter
closes at the same time. Ensure that your fingers are not caught inside
the camera.
Points to Note when Cleaning the CCD
• Use a blower that does not have a brush attached. Using a blower brush to
clean soiling from the CCD can scratch the CCD surface.
• If there is soiling on the CCD that cannot be removed using a blower, such as
oil or fingermarks, take the camera to an authorized FUJIFILM dealer for
cleaning. Never attempt to clean the CCD by wiping it as the CCD is
extremely fragile.
