Cleaning and Storage

Cleaning

Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To

Lens remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of them and working toward the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner.

Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other Monitor stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to

apply pressure.

 

Use a blower to remove

 

dust, dirt, or sand, then

 

wipe gently with a soft, dry

 

cloth. If a foreign

 

substance adheres to the

 

waterproof packing inside

 

of the battery-chamber/

Body

memory card slot cover or

inside of the battery

 

chamber, remove it with

 

the included brush. After using the camera underwater, or at the beach

 

or other sandy or dusty environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt

 

with a dry cloth lightly dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly.

 

If you handle the camera using hands where sunscreen lotion is

 

applied, this could cause deterioration of the camera exterior. Note

 

that foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not

 

covered by the warranty.
