RODE Microphones VideoMic Pro - Manual (Page 24)

24
• When not in use, always keep your VideoMic Pro in a cool, dry
place, preferably in a camera bag or equivalent to protect from
dust or damage.
• When not in use for long periods of time, always remember to
remove the battery before storage.
• Do not expose the VideoMic Pro to rain or moisture.
Windshield
We recommend leaving the pre-fitted foam windshield on at all
times to protect the microphone from dust and moisture.
In instances where the microphone has become exposed to the
elements and the foam has become moist or dirty, it may be
necessary to remove the foam gently and dry it separately to the
microphone body to prevent moisture from damaging the micro-
phone. Take care in this operation so as not to damage or tear the
foam during removal. The foam windshield can be hand washed in
cold water, then dried thoroughly in the sun before refitting.
