Camera Maintenance
Follow the procedures below to clean the
camera body, lens, optical viewfinder and LCD
monitor when they become dirty.
• Never use thinners, benzene, synthetic
cleansers or water to clean the
equipment. These substances may
distort or damage the equipment.
Camera Body
Gently wipe dirt off the camera body with a
soft cloth or an eyeglass lens wiper.
Lens
After you have used a generic lens blower
brush to remove dust and dirt, use a soft cloth
with extreme caution to lightly wipe the lens
to remove remaining dirt.
• Never use cleansers containing organic
solvents on the camera body or lens. If
you cannot remove a stain, contact your
camera retailer or the closest Canon
Customer Support Help Desk.
Optical Viewfinder
Use a lens blower to remove dust and dirt. If
necessary, gently wipe it with a soft cloth or
eyeglass lens wiper to remove stubborn dirt.
LCD Monitor
Use a lens blower to remove dust and dirt. If
necessary, gently wipe it with a soft cloth or
eyeglass lens wiper to remove stubborn dirt.
• Never rub or press strongly on the LCD
monitor. Rubbing or pressing firmly on
it may lead to damage or other
problems.
