Safety and care instructions
Storage
• If you are not using the camera for a longer period of time, we
recommend that you:
–Turn off the camera
–Remove the memory cards
–Remove the battery
• A lens works like a magnifying glass if bright sunlight shines on
the front of the camera. The camera must therefore never be set
aside in strong sunlight without protection. Using the lens cap
and keeping the camera in the shade (or immediately putting it
away in the case) help to prevent damage to the interior of the
camera.
• Store the camera preferably in a closed and padded container
so that nothing can rub against it and it is protected from dust.
• Store the camera in a dry, adequately ventilated place, where
neither high temperatures nor high humidity will occur.
When used in humid conditions, the camera should be
completely free of all moisture before being stored away.
• Photo cases that became wet during use should be emptied to
prevent damage to your equipment caused by moisture and any
leather-tanning residue released.
• To prevent fungal growth during use in hot, humid tropical
climates, the camera equipment should be exposed to the sun
and air as much as possible.
Storage in airtight containers or cases is recommended only if a
desiccant such as silica gel is also used.
• To prevent the formation of fungus, do not store the camera in a
leather case for extended periods of time.
• Note down the serial number of your camera, as this is
extremely important in case of loss.
