INTRODUCTION
■Lens
•Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause malfunction.
•You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
■Caring for your camera
•Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can interfere with proper image recording. Never touch the lens with your fingers. You can remove dust particles from the lens surface by using a lens blower to blow them off. Next, wipe the surface of the lens with a soft lens cloth.
•Fingerprints, dirt, and other foreign matter on the flash can interfere with proper operation of the camera. Avoid touching the flash. If the flash becomes dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth.
•If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
■Other
•The camera may become slightly warm during use. This does not indicate malfunction.
