Whenever you set the power switch to <1> or <2>, the Self 
Cleaning Sensor Unit operates to automatically shake off the dust on 
the front of the sensor. Normally, you need not pay attention to this 
operation. However, you can choose to perform sensor cleaning 
manually, or disable it.

 

Under the [53] tab, select [Sensor 
cleaning], then press <0>.

Select [Clean nowf].

 

Select [Clean nowf], then press 
<0>.

 

Select [OK].

The screen will indicate that the 
sensor is being cleaned. (A small 
sound may be heard.) Although there 
will be a shutter sound, no picture is 
taken.

 

In step 2, select [Auto cleaningf] and set it to [Disable].

The sensor cleaning will no longer be executed when you set the 
power switch to <1> or <2>.

For best results, perform the sensor cleaning with the camera placed 
upright and stable on a table or other flat surface.

 

Even if you repeat the sensor cleaning, the result will not improve much. 
Immediately after the sensor cleaning is finished, the [Clean nowf] 
option will remain disabled temporarily.
