Cleaning the Camera1Turn the camera Off.
2Disconnect the camera from the AC adapter and from the computer if it is connected.
3Using a clean, damp cloth, clean only the outside encasement, the Image LCD panel,
the Camera Status LCD panel, and the viewfinder.
4To remove dust from the lens, mirror, or focusing screen, gently blow the dust away
using a commercially available bulb-type blower. If further cleaning is necessary,
consult your nearest service center.
5Clean the viewfinder eyepiece with a soft, clean cloth. DO NOT use alcohol.
6The shutter curtain can be easily damaged if touched. To remove dust from the shutter
curtain or surrounding area, use only a commercially available bulb-type blower.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners on the outside of the camera.
IMPORTANT:
Avoid directly touching any of these surfaces. Do not wi pe the cam er a b ody or le ns
with any type of cleaner containing organic solvents.
CAUTIONS:
Be careful not to blow air onto the curtain too strongly as this could deform or
damage the curtain. Aerosol spray dust removers should not be used near the
shutter curtain.
A spray gun-type blower may damage the optical glass if used to clean the
lens, especially if ED glass is used for the front lens element. To avoid damage,
hold the blower upright with its nozzle more than 30cm from the lens surface,
and keep the nozzle moving so the stream of air is not concentrated in one
spot.
