Cleaning and Maintenance

Many plastic parts are used in the Camcorder casing.  Do not use thinners,
benzenes or other strong chemical cleaners.  These may cause discoloration
and damage to the casing.

Clean the casing with a soft, dry cloth.  If the casing is particularly
dirty, wipe it with a tightly wrung cloth dampened with a diluted, neutral
detergent.  Then wipe it again with a soft dry cloth.

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe finger marks and other soiling off the LCD
monitor screen and lens protector.

If the lens needs cleaning, first remove the lens cap and then clean the
lens with a soft, dry cloth, or compressed air and lens papers designed for
photographic lenses.
