14. Taking care of the camera

Protect the camera against hard knocks and do not drop it.As a safety measure, wrap the strap around your wrist.

Protect the camera against moisture, dust, wind-blown sand at the seaside and continuous exposure to sunlight. This applies especially when the camera is opened while changing films. Keep the film pressure plate 26 clean, and occasionally polish it with a leather cloth. For cleaning the inside of the body use a soft brush.

A soft sable brush is also the best means for cleaning the lens 4. The lens surfaces are sufficiently recessed to avoid accidental finger marks. To clean filters, first dust them with a soft brush and then polish with lens tissue.

If the lens surface mists over in the winter when taking the camera from the cold air outside into the warm air of a room, wait a few minutes until the deposit of moisture has evaporaled on its own.

And if at any time you have a special technical query - at home or on your travels abroad - remember that the international Rollei Service is always at your disposal for advice and information.
