Camera Care and Storage
Caring for the Camera
• Image quality can be affected by fingerprints and other foreign matter on the lens.
Avoid touching the lens with your fingers.
• Remove dust or lint on the lens with a commercially available blower, or gently clean
the lens with a soft, dry cloth.
• When the camera becomes dirty or after using it on the beach, ensure that the bat-
tery/card cover is closed, and then rinse off dirt, sand, and salt in a basin of tap water
and wipe off the moisture with a soft, dry cloth.
• When the rubber packing becomes dirty, clean it with soft, dry cloth. Dirt adhering
to the rubber packing or scratches on it may deteriorate the waterproof function,
causing water leakage. When the dirt cannot be cleaned or you find scratches on the
rubber packing, take the camera to your nearest dealer or service center to replace it
with a new packing.
• In the unlikely event of malfunction, consult your nearest repair center.
• The camera contains high-voltage circuits. Do not disassemble it.
• Do not expose the camera to volatile substances such as thinner, benzine, or pesti-
cides. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the camera or its
coatings.
• The monitor is easily scratched, avoid touching it with hard objects.
• Clean the monitor by wiping it with a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of any
monitor cleaner that does not contain organic solvents.
Storage
• Do not store the camera where it will be exposed to:
Extreme heat or humidity, large changes in temperature or humidity
Dust, dirt, sand
Severe vibration
Prolonged contact with chemicals including pesticides, or with vinyl or rubber
products
Strong magnetic fields (for example, in the vicinity of a monitor, transformer, or
magnet)
• Store the camera in a lint-free camera case, etc. to prevent dirt and lint from adher-
ing to the camera. Do not carry the camera in a pocket to prevent dirt and lint from
adhering to the camera.
• Remove the battery if the product is left unused for a long period of time.
