Do not subject the TC-16 to shocks—especially avoid dropping or banging it on anything hard.

If condensation forms on the TC-16 body, wipe it with a dry soft cloth. If it forms on the lens itself, observe the following—

use a blower brush to clean all glass surfaces; as much as possible avoid using lens tissue. Gently wipe dirt, smudges or fingerprints with soft cotton moistened with a small amount of absolute alcohol, using a spiral motion from center to periphery. Make sure you leave no wiping traces.

If you use ether in cleaning the lens surface, smudges may appear on the surface; should this happen, wipe the smudges with a cotton cloth mois- tened with absolute alcohol.

Altach both front and rear lens caps BF-1 and LF-1 to your TC-16 when stor- ing 11 separately, preferably inside the optional lens pouch No. 61; also, avoid storage in a high-temperature and high-humidity place.
