Warning messages
• Modern electronic components react sensitively to electro -
static discharge. As people can easily pick up charges of tens
of thousands of volts, by walking on synthetic carpets for
example, a discharge can occur when you touch your LEICA S2,
particularly if it is placed on a conductive surface. If only the
camera housing is affected, this discharge is harmless to the
electronics. However, despite built-in safety circuits, the
outer contacts, such as those on the base of the camera,
should not be touched if at all possible for safety reasons.
• For any cleaning of the contacts, do not use an optical micro-
fiber cloth (synthetic); use a cotton or linen cloth instead. Be -
fore touching the contacts, you can make sure you dis charge
any electrostatic charge by deliberately touching a heating or
water pipe (conductive, earthed material). You can also avoid
soiling and oxidization of the contacts by storing your LEICA S2
in a dry place with the lens or bayonet cover fitted.
• You should exclusively use the recommended accessories to
prevent faults, short circuits or electric shock.
• The LEICA S2 is protected against splashed water and dust.
However, it should not be continuously exposed to rain and
should never be submerged in water.
• Do not attempt to remove parts of the body (covers); spe-
cialist repairs can be carried out only at authorized service
centers.

Disposal of electrical and electronic
equipment
(Applies within the EC, and for other European coun-
tries with segregated waste collection systems)
This device contains electrical and/or electronic components
and should therefore not be disposed of in general household
waste! Instead it should be disposed of at a recycling collection
point provided by the local authority. This costs you nothing.
If the device itself contains replaceable (rechargeable) batte-
ries, these must be removed first and, if necessary, also be dis-
posed of in line with the relevant regulations.
Your local authority or waste disposal authority, or the store
where you bought this device, can provide you with further
information on this issue.
