CARE INSTRUCTIONS
As any soiling also represents a growth medium for microorgan-
isms, you should take care to keep the equipment clean.
FOR THE CAMERA
• Clean the camera only with a soft, dry cloth. Stubborn dirt
should first of all be covered with a well-thinned cleaning agent
and then wiped off with a dry cloth.
• To remove stains and fingerprints, the camera and lenses should
be wiped with a clean lint-free cloth. Tougher dirt in hard to reach
corners of the camera body can be removed with a small brush.
The shutter blades may not be touched when doing this.
• All mechanically operated bearings and sliding surfaces on your
camera are lubricated. Please remember this if you will not be
using the camera for a long period of time. To prevent the lubri-
cation points becoming gummed up, the camera shutter should
be released a number of times every three months. It is also
recommended that you repeatedly move and use all other
controls. The range and aperture adjustment rings on the lens
should also be moved periodically.
• Take care not to scratch the sensor for the 6-bit coding in the
bayonet, or to get it dirty. Take care also that no grains of sand
or similar particles enter the fastening, where they could scratch
the bayonet. Only clean this component when dry and do not
exert any pressure on the glass cover.
FOR THE BATTERY
Rechargeable lithium ion batteries generate power through internal
chemical reactions. This reaction is influenced by ambient temper-
ature and humidity. Very high and low temperatures shorten the
operating time and service life of the batteries.
• Always remove the battery, if you will not be using the camera
for a long period of time. Otherwise, after several weeks the
battery could become totally discharged, i.e. the voltage is
sharply reduced as the camera still consumes a small amount of
current (for saving your settings) even when it is turned off.
• Lithium ion batteries should only be stored in a partially charged
condition, i.e. not completely discharged or fully charged (in the
corresponding display). If the battery is stored for a long period
of time, it should be charged around twice a year for approxi-
mately 15 minutes to avoid a full discharge.
• Always ensure that the battery contacts are clean and freely
accessible. Whilst lithium ion batteries are proof against short
circuits, they should still be protected against contact with metal
objects such as paper clips or jewelry. A short-circuited battery
can get very hot and cause severe burns.
• If a battery is dropped, check the casing and the contacts
immediately for any damage. Using a damaged battery can
damage the camera.
• In case of noise, discoloration, deformation, overheating or leak-
ing fluid, the battery must be removed from the camera or charger
immediately and replaced. Continued use of the battery results in
a risk of overheating, which can cause fire and/or explosion.
• In case of leaking fluid or a smell of burning, keep the battery
away from sources of heat. Leaked fluid can catch fire!
• A safety valve in the battery guarantees that any excess pres-
sure caused by improper handling is discharged safely.
