Removing Dust with a Blower
• Do not use a spray type blower.
• Do not perform Sensor Cleaning during Bulb shooting. The shutter may
accidentally close and may cause damage to the camera’s internal parts.
• To prevent dirt and dust from accumulating on the CMOS sensor, keep the
lens mount cap on the camera when a lens is not attached.
• When the battery level is low, the message [Not enough battery power
remaining to clean sensor] is displayed on the monitor.
• It is recommended to use the AC adapter kit (optional) when cleaning the
sensor. If you are not using the AC adapter kit, please install the battery with
ample capacity remaining. If the battery capacity becomes low during
cleaning, a warning beep will sound. In this case, stop cleaning immediately.
• Do not put the tip of the blower inside the lens mount area. If the power is
turned off, this may cause damage to the shutter, CMOS sensor and the
mirror.
• The self-timer lamp blinks, and [d] and [Cln] appear on the LCD panel
while cleaning the sensor.
• This camera may generate a vibration sound while cleaning the CMOS
sensor. It is not a malfunction.
