Cleaning and storing
Cleaning the main unit
•
Remove the battery or disconnect the AC cable from the power outlet before cleaning.
•
Do not use benzine or thinner to clean the unit. Using benzine or thinner may cause deformation or peeling off of the paint of
the main unit.
•
Wipe the main unit with a soft and clean cloth. For heavy dirt, wipe with a cloth soaked in kitchen detergent diluted with water,
and then with a dry cloth.
•
When using a chemical dust cloth, follow the instructions that came with the cloth.
Cautions for storage
Remove the battery from the main unit when storing. Store them in a place where humidity is low and temperature is relatively
constant.
When storing the unit, it is recommended that you place a desiccant (silica gel) in with it.
•
Recommended temperature: 15 °C to 25 °C
•
Recommended relative humidity: 40 % to 60 %
Main unit
•
Wrap in a soft cloth to prevent dust from getting inside.
Battery
•
The battery life shortens where the temperature is extremely high or low.
•
Storing in a place where there is heavy oil smoke or dust may lead to malfunctions due to rust on terminal connectors, etc.
•
Do not let the battery terminal contact a metal object (such as a necklace or hairpin). Short circuit may occur between
terminals and it may lead to heat generation. Touching on a heated part may cause severe burns.
•
Store the battery with electrically discharged. For long-term storage, it is recommended to charge the battery at least once a
year and use it up completely on the unit before storing it again.
•
Remove dust and other debris that gather on the contacts of the battery.
Memory card
•
Do not allow dirt, water, or other foreign objects to get into the contacts on the back of the card.
•
If you remove it from the unit, be sure to put it in its case.
•
Do not place SD cards in the following areas:
– Where corrosive gases, etc., may be generated
– In places exposed to direct sunlight, or places with high temperatures such as near heating devices
– Where there is excessive moisture or dust
– Locations susceptible to significant difference in temperature (condensation can occur.)
– Where static electricity or electromagnetic waves occur
