Maintenance/Others Maintenance/Others 196 Condensation Moving the camera rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its internal surfaces. Stop using the camera if condensation is detected. Continued use may damage the camera. Condensation may form in the following cases: • When the camera is moved quickly from cold to warm places • When the camera is left in a humid room • When a cold room is heated rapidly When condensation is detected The precise time required for water droplets to evaporate will vary depending on the location and weather conditions. As a general rule, wait for 2 hours before resuming use of the camera. To avoid condensation Remove the battery pack and any cards. Then, place the camera in an airtight plastic bag and let it adjust gradually to temperature changes before removing it from the bag. Cleaning Camera body • Use a soft dry cloth to clean the camera's body. Never use chemically treated cloths or volatile solvents such as paint thinner. Lens • Remove any dust or dirt particles using a non-aerosol type blower. • Use a clean, soft lens-cleaning cloth to gently wipe the lens. Never use tissue paper. LCD screen • Clean the LCD screen using a clean, soft lens-cleaning cloth and commercially available cleaning fluid for eyeglasses. • Condensation may form on the surface of the screen when the temperature changes suddenly. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
