Instructions for care & use
Charger
• Using the charger in the vicinity of broadcast receivers may
interfere with the reception of the device; Ensure a distance of at
least 1 m (3 ft) between the charger and the receiver.
• When the charger is in use, it may emit a buzzing sound – this is
normal and not a malfunction.
• Disconnect the charger from the mains when it is not in use,
because it consumes some (a very small amount) electricity,
even when no battery is inserted.
• Always keep the charger contacts clean, and never short circuit
them.
Memory cards
• Never remove the memory card during a picture save or card
reading process. The camera must not be switched off or be sub-
jected to impact or vibrations.
• Make sure to store memory cards in their anti-static container
when not in use.
• Do not store memory cards where they will be exposed to high
temperatures, direct sunlight, magnetic fields or static electricity.
• Do not drop or bend memory cards as this will cause damage
and result in the loss of the stored data.
• Always remove the memory card if the camera will not be used
for an extended period of time.
• Do not touch the connections on the reverse of the memory card
and keep them away from dirt, dust and moisture.
• We recommend formatting the memory card from time to time,
because fragmented residual data from deleted files may block
some of the storage capacity of the memory card.
Storage
• Recommendations if the camera will not be used for an extended
period of time:
a. Switch it off,
b. remove the memory card, and
c. remove the battery.
• A camera lens can have the effect of a magnifying glass – espe-
cially when exposed to direct frontal sunlight. Never store the
camera without lens protection. Using the lens cap and keeping
the camera in the shade – ideally in its camera case – will help
prevent damage to the interior of the camera.
• Store the camera in a closed and padded container to prevent
friction damage and protect it against dust accumulation.
• Store the camera in a dry, sufficiently ventilated place, where it
will not be subjected to high temperatures and humidity. When
the camera was used in humid conditions, make sure to remove
all moisture before storing it.
• Camera bags that have gotten wet during use must be emptied
completely to prevent moisture damage to your equipment or
damage from tanning agents released.
• To prevent fungal growth during use in tropical climates, the
camera equipment should be exposed to the sun and air as often
as possible. Storage in airtight containers or cases is recom-
mended only in conjunction with a desiccant like silica gel. The
camera should therefore also not be stored in a leather case for
extended periods of time.
• Moisture can cause malfunctions and irreparable damage to the
camera and memory card.
• Note down the serial number of your LeicaCL. This information
may be very important in case of loss or theft.
