Mounting the eyepiece

When outdoors, never carry or set up the camera with the
eyepiece facing up to prevent sunlight, which could damage
the camera, from entering.
Cleaning Inside the Viewfinder
Detach the eyepiece to remove dust from the LCD screen
inside the viewfinder.
For details, refer to [Detaching the eyepiece] (this page).
Use a soft brush or blower brush to remove dust from the
LCD screen.
NOTE
Do not use thinner or other mineral solvents to remove dust or
soiling.
Charging the internal battery
The internal battery preserves the date and time settings.
If the camera is left unused for half a year or longer, the
internal battery may become depleted and the (battery
icon) may appear in the viewfinder and on the LCD monitor.
Should this happen, connect an external DC power supply
or battery and let the power stay on for about four hours
to fully charge the internal battery. Then reset the time and
date.
Replace the internal battery if appears after charging.
Consult your distributor.
