Maintenance
Before cleaning the camera, remove the battery or the DC coupler (optional), or
disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Then wipe the camera with a dry soft
cloth.
• When the camera becomes dirty, clean it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Then wipe the
camera with a dry cloth.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, alcohol or kitchen detergent. This can
cause damage to the body of the camera and the surface may peel off.
• When using chemically treated cloth, read the instructions beforehand.
• When the LCD display becomes dirty, blow away dust and dirt with a commercially
available blower brush. When the dirt is heavy, wipe it with a soft cloth such as an
eyeglass cloth.
About the LCD monitor
• Do not press the LCD monitor with excessive force. Uneven colours may appear on the
LCD monitor and it may malfunction.
• Do not press the LCD monitor with a sharp and hard tip such as a ballpoint pen.
• Do not scrub or press the LCD monitor with excessive force.
• If the camera is cold when you turn it on, the picture on the LCD monitor will be slightly
darker than usual at rst. However, the picture will return to normal brightness when the
internal temperature of the camera increases.
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor
screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or green) on
the screen. This is not a malfunction. The LCD monitor screen has more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. The
spots will not be recorded in pictures in the built-in memory or a card.
About the Lens
• Do not press the lens with excessive force.
• Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun as rays of light from the sun may
cause it to malfunction. Also, be careful when placing the camera outside or near a
window.
