Caution
•
Never use a spray blower or a blower with a brush.
The CMOS sensor may be damaged. Do not wipe the CMOS
sensor with a cloth.
•
Do not put the tip of the blower inside the lens mount area.
If the power is turned off during cleaning, it may cause
damage to the shutter, the CMOS sensor, and the mirror.
Hold the camera with the lens mount down while cleaning
the sensor so dust will fall away from the sensor when
the blower is used.
•
When the battery level is low, the message [Not enough
battery power remaining to clean sensor] is displayed
on the monitor. Install a fully charged battery. If the battery
capacity becomes low during cleaning, a warning beep
will sound. In this case, stop cleaning immediately.

Memo
