General Maintenance and Safety

q To keep from damaging your camera, avoid exposing it to moisture

and extreme temperatures.

q Clean the outside of the camera by wiping with a clean, dry cloth.

Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on the
camera or any of its parts.

q Do not allow any chemicals, such as suntan lotion to come into

contact with the painted surface of the camera.

q Never disassemble or touch the inside of the camera. This could

result in electrical shock.

q When using a tripod with the camera, do not over tighten the

screw to the camera. Damage to the camera may result.

q If you notice smoke or a strange smell coming from the camera,

immediately turn off the camera, wait a few minutes until the
camera cools, and then remove the batteries.

q Clean the lens and back LCD screen:

Do not use cleaning solutions unless they are designed specifically
for camera lenses. Do not wipe the camera lens or LCD screen
with chemically treated eyeglass lens tissue as it may scratch
the lens.

1

Blow gently on the lens or LCD screen to remove dust and dirt.

2

Moisten the lens or LCD screen by breathing lightly on it.

3

Wipe the lens or LCD screen gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or
an untreated lens-cleaning tissue.
