General maintenance and safety
✔ To keep from damaging your camera, avoid exposing it to moisture and
extreme temperatures.
✔ Clean the outside of the camera by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Never
use harsh or abrasive cleaners or organic solvents on the camera or any of
its parts.
✔ Never disassemble or touch the inside of the camera. This could result in
electrical shock.
✔ If you notice smoke or a strange smell coming from the camera,
immediately turn the camera off, wait a few minutes until the camera
cools, and then remove the batteries.
✔ Cleaning the lens:
1 Blow gently on the lens to remove dust and dirt.
2 Moisten the lens by breathing lightly on it.
3 Wipe the lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or an untreated lens-
cleaning tissue.
☞ Do not use cleaning solutions unless they are designed
specifically for camera lenses. Do not wipe the camera lens
with chemically treated eyeglass lens tissue as it may scratch
the lens.
