well-ventilated area. Do not store your camera with naphtha or
camphor moth balls or in locations that:
• are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60%
• are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic
fields, such as televisions or radios
• are exposed to temperatures above 50 °C (122 °F) or below –10 °C
(14 °F)

Storage and Cleaning
Camera body
Use a blower to remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with
a soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or sea-
side, wipe off sand or salt with a cloth lightly dampened in
distilled water and dry thoroughly. Important: Dust or other
foreign matter inside the camera may cause damage not cov-
ered under warranty.
Lens,
viewfinder
These elements are easily damaged. Remove dust and lint
with a blower. If using an aerosol blower, keep the can ver-
tical to prevent the discharge of liquid. To remove finger-
prints and other stains, apply a small amount of lens cleaner
to a soft cloth and clean with care.
Monitor
Remove dust and lint with a blower. When removing finger-
prints and other stains, wipe the surface lightly with a soft
cloth or chamois leather. Do not apply pressure, as this
could result in damage or malfunction.
