Cleaning the main unit

•Do not use any type of solvents, which may damage the finish.

•When you use a chemical cloth, follow its instructions.

•Do not sprinkle volatile matter such as pesticide over Color Video Camera nor allow rubber or vinyl to come in contact with Color Video Camera for a long period of time. Doing so may damage the finish.
