Camera Care
Cleaning
CAUTION
:
Remove the lens from the camera before cleaning.
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Disconnect the camera from the AC adapter and from the computer.
3. Using a damp cloth, clean only the outside of the camera body, the
Top Status LCD, the Back Status LCD, and the Image LCD.
NOTE: Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners on the outside of
the camera.
4. Clean the viewfinder eyepiece with a soft, clean cloth. Do not use
alcohol.
5. To remove dust from the mirror or focusing screen, gently blow the
dust away using a commercially available bulb-type blower. Avoid
directly touching any of these surfaces.
6. Clean the lens surface with a blower brush. To remove dirt and
smudges, remove the lens from the camera, then use a soft, clean
cotton cloth or lens tissue moistened with lens cleaner. Wipe in a
circular motion from center to outer edge, taking care not to leave
traces and not to touch the other lens parts.
NOTE: Do not lubricate the camera.
