B
Cautions when cleaning the digital camera
œ
Do not use benzene or thinner products to clean the digital camera. Doing
so may cause deformation, discoloration, or peeling of paint. When using a
chemically treated cloth, carefully read its instructions and warnings.
œ
Do not spray insecticides or volatile sprays on the digital camera. Do not
leave rubber or vinyl objects against the digital camera for a long period.
They may cause deformation, discoloration, or peeling of paint.
Cleaning procedure
1 Turn off the digital camera and remove the batteries.
2 Remove the dirt with a soft cloth.
3 If the digital camera is extremely dirty, wipe with a soft cloth
moistened with a mild detergent diluted with water and wrung dry.
B
Cautions concerning the batteries and their terminals
œ
Periodically clean with a dry cloth the terminals of the batteries ((+) and (–))
and the terminals located in the battery compartment of the digital camera.
œ
Do not touch the battery terminals or the terminals in the battery
compartment of the digital camera with your bare hands. Doing so will allow
contaminants from your hands to adhere to the terminals and oxidize,
increasing the contact resistance. If the contact resistance increases, the
usable life of the batteries will diminish.
B
Cautions when cleaning the lens
œ
If the lens gets dirty, use a commercially available air blower or a cleaning
cloth for photographic equipment to clean it.
B
When not using the digital camera for a long period
œ
Remove the batteries. However, when the batteries are removed for a long
time, the digital camera functions may begin to not work properly.
Periodically reinstall the batteries and check the digital camera functions.
œ
If the batteries are left in the digital camera, a small amount of power is still
used even if the digital camera is turned off. If the batteries are left in the
digital camera for a long period, they may become completely discharged.
