Caring for the Camera
Storage
When the camera will not be used for an extended period, replace the mon-
 i tor cover, remove the battery, and store the battery in a cool, dry area with the 
terminal cover in place.  To pre vent mold or mil dew, store the cam era in a dry, 
well-ven ti lat ed area.  Do not store your cam era with naph tha or cam phor moth 
balls or in lo ca tions that:
•  are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
• are next to equipment that produces strong elec tro mag net ic fi elds, such as 
televisions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above 50 °C/122 °F (for example, near a space 
heater or in a closed ve hi cle on a hot day) or below –10 °C (14 °F)
Cleaning
Camera body
Use a blower to remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with a soft, dry 
cloth.  After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off  sand or salt 
with a cloth lightly dampened in distilled water and dry thor ough ly.
IMPORTANT: Dust or other foreign matter inside the camera may cause 
damage not covered under warranty.
Lens,
mirror, and 
viewfi nder
These elements are made of glass and are easily dam aged.  Remove dust 
and lint with a blower.  If using an aerosol blower, keep the can vertical to 
prevent the discharge of liquid.  To remove fi ngerprints and other stains, 
apply a small amount of lens cleaner to a soft cloth and clean with care.
Monitor
Remove dust and lint with a blower.  When removing fi ngerprints and oth-
er stains, wipe the surface lightly with a soft cloth or chamois leath er.  Do 
not apply pressure, as this could result in damage or malfunction. 
 The Monitor
Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and 
to prevent liquid crystal from entering your eyes and mouth.
 The Control Panel
Rarely, static electricity may cause the control panel to brighten or darken.  This does not 
indicate a malfunction; the display will shortly return to normal.
