STORAge
• If you are not using the Leica M9 for an extended
period of time, we recommend that you:
a. switch it off (see p. 112),
b. remove the memory card (see p. 109), and
c. remove the battery (see p. 122) (after a maximum
of 3 months, the time and date will be lost, see
p. 108).
• A lens works like a magnifying glass if bright sun light
shines on the front of the camera. The camera
must therefore never be set aside in strong sunlight
without protection. Use the lens cover and keep the
camera in the shade (or immediately put it away in
the case) help to prevent damage to the interior of
the camera.
• You should preferably store the Leica M9 in a
closed and padded container so that nothing can
damage it and it is protected from dust.
• Store the Leica M9 in a dry, adequately ventilated
place, where neither high temperatures nor high
humidity will occur. when used in humid conditions,
the Leica M9 should be completely cleared of all
moisture before being stored away.
• Photo cases that became wet during use should
be emptied to prevent damage to your equipment
caused by moisture and any leather­tanning residue
released.
• To prevent fungal growth during use in hot, humid
tropical climates, the camera equipment should be
exposed to the sun and air as much as possible.
Storage in airtight containers or cases is recom­
mended only if a desiccant such as silica gel is
placed in the container.
• To prevent the formation of fungus, do not store
the Leica M9 in a leather case for extended periods
of time.
• Note the serial numbers of your Leica M9 (engraved
on the accessory shoe) and lenses, as these are
extremely important in case of loss.
