Using The Camera Abroad - Canon Optura Instruction Manual

Maintenance
E
Viewfinder/LCD (brightness)
• Adjust the brightness of the displays by
turning the BRIGHT screws. For the
viewfinder, you can find the screw on the
inner side of the finder. For the LCD
screen, you can reveal the screw on the
back side of the screen by removing the
small screw cover.
LCD
• Clean the LCD screen using a commercially available glass cleaner.
• Where there is a big change in temperature, moisture may form on the surface
of the screen. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
• At low temperatures the display may appear to be much darker than usual. This
is not a fault, and as the screen warms up the display will return to normal.
Camera body and lens
• Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera body or lens. Never use chemically
treated cloth or volatile solvents such as paint thinner.
Video heads
• When mosaic-like noise appears on the playback picture,
the video heads may be dirty. When the video heads are
badly contaminated, the camera may show a blank blue
screen.
• Clean the video heads using Canon's DVM-CL Digital
Video Head Cleaning Cassette. If the "noise" remains, repeat the cleaning (up to
maximum of five times).
• Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette, as this can cause damage.

Using the camera abroad

• You can use the compact power adapter to operate your camera and charge
battery packs in any country where the electricity supply is between 110 and

adapters for overseas use.
