• If a foreign substance adheres to the outside of the camera or the inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover (such as the hinge, memory card slot, and connectors), remove it immediately with a blower. If a foreign substance adheres to the waterproof packing inside the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, remove it with the included brush. Do not use the included brush for anything other than cleaning the waterproof packing.
•If a foreign substance such as suntan oil, sunscreen lotion, hot spring, bath mix powder, detergent, soap, organic solvent, oil, or alcohol adheres to the camera, immediately wipe it off.
