Maintenance

Do not use benzine or paint thinners to clean the camera recorder.

O Use of benzine or paint thinners may cause the camera recorder body to become deformed or the surface coating to peel off.

O When cleaning or otherwise maintaining the camera recorder, either remove its battery or disconnect its AC cable from the power outlet.

O Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe the camera recorder. To remove stubborn stains, dilute some kitchen detergent, dip a cloth into the solution and use it to wipe off the dirt, and then remove any remaining moisture with a dry cloth.

Viewfinder maintenance

When dust has collected inside the viewfinder, take off the eye cup holder, and remove the dust.

OThe inside of the eye cup holder has a special coating: for this reason, it must not be wiped under any circumstances. When dust has collected, use an air blower or similar device to blow off the dust.

OPoint the viewfinder slightly upward, then remove the eye cup holder by turning it counterclockwise.

OTo attach the eye cup holder, turn it clockwise with the index mark on the eye cup holder face up.
