Caring for the Camera
• Photographs can be affected by fingerprints and other foreign
matter on the lens. Avoid touching the lens with your fingers.
Remove dust or lint with a blower from a camera supply store,
or gently clean the lens with a soft, dry cloth. Clean the picture
display by wiping it with a soft cloth dampened with a small
amount of any monitor cleaner that does not contain organic
solvents.
• Clean the camera thoroughly after using it at the beach or han-
dling cosmetics. Do not expose the camera to volatile substanc-
es such as thinner, benzene, or pesticides. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in damage to the camera or its finish.
• In the unlikely event of malfunction, visit a Ricoh Repair Center.
• The camera contains high-voltage circuits. Do not disassemble.
• The picture display is easily scratched; avoid touching it with
hard objects.
Storage
• Do not store the camera where it will be exposed to: extreme
heat or humidity; large changes in temperature or humidity; dust,
dirt, or sand; severe vibration; prolonged contact with chemicals,
including mothballs and other insect repellent, or with vinyl or
rubber products; strong magnetic fields (for example, in the vi-
cinity of a monitor, transformer, or magnet).
• Remove the batteries if the product will be left unused for a long
period of time.
Before Cleaning
Turn the camera off and remove the battery or disconnect the AC
adapter.
