Cleaning and storing
Cleaning the camera body
f Remove the battery or disconnect the AC cable from the power outlet before cleaning.
f Do not use benzine or thinner to clean the camera. Using benzine or thinner may cause deformation or peeling off of the paint of the camera body.
f Wipe the camera body with a soft and clean cloth. If there is heavy dirt attached, wipe the camera recorder using a cloth soaked in kitchen detergent
diluted with water, and then wipe it with a dry cloth.
Cautions when storing the camera recorder
Remove the battery from the camera when storing. Store them in a place where humidity is low and temperature is relatively constant.
f Recommended temperature: 15 °C to 25 °C (59 °F to 77 °F)
f Recommended relative humidity: 40% to 60%
r Camera
f Wrap the camera recorder with a soft cloth so that dust does not get into it.
r Battery
f The battery life shortens where the temperature is extremely high or low.
f Storing in a place where there is heavy oil smoke or dust may lead to malfunctions due to rust on terminal connectors, etc.
f Do not let the battery terminal contact a metal object (such as a necklace or hairpin). Short circuit may occur between terminals and it may lead to heat
generation. Touching on a heated part may cause severe burns.
f Store the battery with electrically discharged. When storing for a long period of time, it is recommended to charge the battery once a year, and then
use up the battery capacity by the camera before storing it again.
