Condensation

If condensation has formed on or in the LEICA S2, you should

turn it off and leave it to stand at room temperature for around

an hour. Once the camera temperature has adjusted to room

temperature, the condensation will disappear by itself.

Care instructions

As any soiling also represents a growth medium for microorga-

nisms, you should take care to keep the equipment clean.

For the camera

• Only clean the LEICA S2 with a soft, dry cloth. Stubborn dirt

should first of all be covered with a well-thinned cleaning

agent and then wiped off with a dry cloth.

• To remove stains and fingerprints, the camera and lens

should be wiped with a clean lint-free cloth. Tougher dirt in

hard to reach corners of the camera body can be removed

with a small brush. Be careful not to damage the shutter bla-

des and mirror surface, for instance with the shaft of the

brush.

• All mechanically operated bearings and sliding surfaces on

your LEICA S2 are lubricated. Please remember this if you will

not be using the camera for a long period of time. To prevent

the lubrication points becoming gummed up, the camera

shutter should be released a number of times every three

months. It is also recommended that you repeatedly move

and use all other controls.

For lenses

• Normally, a soft hairbrush is sufficient to remove dust from

the outer lens elements. However, in case of more stubborn

dirt, they can be carefully cleaned with a very clean, soft cloth

that is completely free of foreign matter, using circular mo -

tions from the inside to the outside. We recommend micro-

fiber cloths (available from photographic and optical special -

ists) that are stored in a protective container and can be

washed at temperatures of up to 40°C (without fabric softener,

never iron!). Cloths for cleaning glasses, which are impreg -

nated with chemicals, should not be used as they can damage

the lens glass.

• For optimum front lens protection in unfavorable photographic

conditions (e.g. sand, salt water spray), use transparent UVa

filters. However, you should bear in mind that, like all filters,

they can cause unwanted reflections in certain backlight sit -

uations and with high contrasts. The generally recommended

lens hood also protects the lens from unintentional finger-

prints and the rain.

For the battery

Rechargeable lithium ion batteries generate power through inter-

nal chemical reactions. These reactions are also influenced by

the external temperature and humidity. Very high or low tempe-

ratures reduce the life of the battery.

• Always remove the battery if you will not be using the LEICA S2

for a long period of time. Otherwise, after several weeks the

battery could become totally discharged, i.e. the voltage is

significantly reduced, as the LEICA S2 uses a low no-load cur-

rent (to save the date and time) even when it is turned off.

• Lithium ion batteries should only be stored in a partially charged

condition, i.e. not completely discharged or fully charged

(indicated in the top panel display (1.11)), For very long stor -

age periods, they should be charged for around 15 minutes

twice a year to prevent total discharge.

• Always ensure that the battery contacts are clean and freely

accessible. While lithium ion batteries are proof against short

circuits, they should still be protected against contact with

metal objects such as paper clips or jewelry. A short-circuited

battery can get very hot and cause severe burns.

• If a battery is dropped, check the casing and the contacts

immediately for any damage. Using a damaged battery can

damage the LEICA S2.

• Batteries have only a limited service life.

• Take damaged batteries to a collection point to ensure cor -

rect recycling.

• Never throw batteries into a fire as this can cause them to

explode.

For the charger

• If the charger is used in the vicinity of radio receivers, it can in -

terfere with the reception; make sure there is a distance of at

least 1m between the devices.

• When the charger is in use, it can make a noise (buzzing) – this is

quite normal and is not a malfunction.

• When it is not in use, disconnect the charger from the mains

as otherwise it uses a certain (very small) amount of power

even when no battery is inserted in it.

• Always keep the charger contacts clean, and never short-cir-

cuit them.

For memory cards

• While a picture is being stored or the memory card is being

read, it may not be removed, nor may the LEICA S2 be turned

off or exposed to vibrations.

• For safety, memory cards should only ever be stored in the

antistatic cover supplied.

• Do not store memory cards where they will be exposed to

high temperatures, direct sunlight, magnetic fields or static

discharge.

• Do not drop or bend memory cards as this can damage it and

result in loss of the stored data.

• Always remove the memory cards if you will not be using the

LEICA S2 for a long period of time.
