Storage and Cleaning

Underwater Use

For information on cleaning the camera after use under water or
on the seashore, see page 71.

Storage

If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove
the battery and store it in a cool, dry area with the terminal cover
in place. To prevent mold or mildew, store the camera in a dry,
well-ventilated area. Do not store your camera with naphtha or
camphor moth balls or in locations that:
• are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
• are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic
fields, such as televisions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above +50 °C (122 °F) or below
–10 °C (14 °F)

other stains, apply a small amount of lens cleaner to a soft
cloth and clean with care.
