• If the camera or the outside of the lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth. If the
camera or lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose particles. Wiping may scratch
the surface.
• To clean the lens surface, first blow away any dust or sand, then, if necessary, moisten a lens tis-
sue or soft cloth with lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe the lens.
• Never use organic solvents to clean the camera.
• Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.
Cleaning
• Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals. When not in use for long
periods, store the camera in an airtight container with a silica-gel drying agent.
• Remove the battery and memory card from the camera when not in use for extended periods.
• Do not store the camera in an area with naphthalene or mothballs.
• During long periods of storage, operate the camera occasionally. When taking the camera out of
storage, check that the camera is functioning properly before using.
Storage
• Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping
spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power
when they warm up.
• Do not store the battery when it is fully charged.
• When storing the battery for extended periods, recharge the battery for five minutes every six
months. The battery may not be able to be recharged if completely exhausted.
