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 used the
camera at the beach, clean it with a cloth that has been soaked in clean water and well wrung.
Lens
Blow dust off the lens with a commercially available hand blower. Apply a small amount of lens
cleaning solution to some lens cleaning paper and gently wipe the lens.
Monitor
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.
Card/Battery
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.
Cleaning the cradle
Blow dust off the connectors with a commercially available blower. Do not use water.
Notes
• Do not use strong solvents such as benzine or alcohol, or chemically treated cloths.
• Cleaning should be done only after the battery has been removed or the AC adapter has been disconnected
from the camera.
• Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
• Avoid storing the camera at the place where chemical agents are handled as this could result in corrosion.
