Cleaning the CMOS Imaging Element

Never disconnect the camera power during cleaning. If the power is cut off, the
shutter will close and possibly damage the shutter curtain.

Use a blower without a brush attached. Using a brush to remove dust from the
image element can damage the element.

Do not insert a dust blower into the camera beyond the lens mount. If the power
shuts off and the shutter closes, this may damage the shutter curtains.

Never use cleaning sprays or blower sprays. The pressure and freezing action
of the spray gas may damage the surface of the imaging element.
