Cleaning
• If the camera or lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth. If the camera or
lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose particles, wiping may scratch the
surface.
• To clean the lens surface, first brush away any dust or blow away sand, then, if necessary,
moisten a lens tissue with lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe the lens.
• Never use organic solvents to clean the camera.
• Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.
Storage
• Remove the batteries from the camera when not in use for an extended period. Damage
may result if battery leakage occurs.
• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals (such as
mothballs). For very long periods, place the camera in an airtight container with a silica gel
drying agent.
• Before using after prolonged storage, check the camera’s operation to make sure it is
functioning properly.
