The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid dropping it or
z
subjecting it to strong impact.
Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that
z
generate strong electromagnetic fields. Strong electromagnetic fields
may cause malfunction or erase image data.
If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe with
z
a dry soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard or apply
force.
Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the camera or
z
screen.
Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens. If cleaning is difficult,
z
contact a Customer Support Help Desk.
Store unused battery packs in a plastic bag or other container. To
z
maintain battery performance if you will not use the battery pack for
some time, about once a year charge it and then use the camera until it
runs out of power before storing the battery pack.
