Caring for the Camera
❚❚ Storage
When the camera will not be used for an extended period, turn the camera
off and remove the battery. Do not store in locations that:
• are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
• are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fi elds, such
as televisions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above 50 °C (122 °F) 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 thoroughly.
Important: Dust or other foreign matter inside the camera may cause
damage not covered under warranty.
Lens, Mirror, and Viewfi nder
These glass elements are easily damaged. 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
other stains, wipe the surface lightly with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Do not apply pressure, as this could result in damage or malfunction.
* Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
Troubleshooting
❚❚ Battery/Display
The camera is on but does not respond: Wait for recording to end. If the problem
persists, turn the camera off . If the camera does not turn off , remove and
reinsert the battery or, if you are using an AC adapter, disconnect and
reconnect the AC adapter. Note that although any data currently being
recorded will be lost, data that have already been recorded will not be
aff ected by removing or disconnecting the power source.
O button
