Caring for the Camera and Battery: Cautions
● Lasers and Other Bright Light Sources
Do not direct lasers or other extremely bright light sources toward the
lens, as this could damage the camera’s image sensor.
●
Cleaning
When cleaning the camera body, use a blower to gently remove dust and
lint, then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the
beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt using a cloth lightly dampened
in fresh water and then dry the camera thoroughly. In rare instances,
static electricity may cause the LCD displays to light up or go dark; this
does not indicate a malfunction. The display will soon return to normal.
●
Cleaning the Lens and Viewfinder
These glass elements are easily damaged: remove dust and lint with a
blower. If using an aerosol blower, keep the can vertical to prevent the
discharge of liquid that could damage glass elements. To remove
fingerprints and other stains from the lens, apply a small amount of lens
cleaner to a soft cloth and wipe the lens carefully.
●
Do Not Touch the Image Sensor
Under no circumstances should you exert
pressure on the image sensor, poke it with
cleaning tools, or subject it to powerful air
currents from a blower. These actions could
scratch or otherwise damage the sensor.
● Cleaning the Image Sensor

Cleaning” (
