MAINTENANCE

Do not use chemicals or other cleaning agents such as thinners or

benzene for cleaning the camera and lens. Use a clean, soft cloth and

blower to clean the camera and lens. Lens cleaners can be used for

removing fingerprints.

Do not lubricate the camera.

Use a blower to remove dust and dirt from the color LCD monitor. To

remove fingerprints or other stains from the LCD monitor, wipe the

surface gently with a soft, clean cloth. Do not apply excessive force, as

this could damage the LCD monitor.

HOW TO STORE THE CAMERA

If you intend to store the camera for a long time, remove the battery.

To avoid growth of fungus, store the camera and lens in a dry, cool and

ventilated place, with a drying agent such as silica gel. Keep your

equipment away from chemicals.

NOTE ON THE TFT COLOR LCD MONITOR

A few pixels may always be lit or may never light on the LCD monitor. This

is not a failure or malfunction. Images recorded with the camera will not

be affected.

Because of the normal physical characteristics of the liquid crystal, the

reaction of the display may become slow at low temperatures. At high

temperatures, the display may become dark, but it will return to normal at

room temperature.
