Camera maintenance
Cleaning the camera
Exterior:
→
Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth
in mild soapy water and wring well. Wipe the camera with the damp
cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If you have used the camera at
the beach, use a cloth soaked in clean water and well wrung.
Monitor:
→
Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Lens:
→
Blow dust off the lens with a commercially available blower, and wipe
gently with a commercially available lens cleaning paper.
• Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or chemically
treated cloth.
• Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
Storage
• When storing the camera for extended periods, remove the batteries and
card from the camera, and keep it in a cool, dry place that is ventilated well.
• Periodically, replace the batteries, and test camera functions.
•
Avoid leaving the camera in places where chemical products are
handled since this may result in corrosion.
