Precautions When Using the Lens
Storage and mildew prevention
• Take the lens out of the protective case or camera bag, and store it in a dry, well-
ventilated place.
• Avoid storing the lens in a poorly ventilated place such as a closet, wardrobe,
drawer, vehicle, or where insect repellent or medicine is kept.
• Avoid storing the lens in areas of high temperature and humidity, where there is a
risk of mildew growth. Store the lens with a desiccant (anti- mildew agent) in a dry
cabinet, airtight container, or plastic bag.
Precautions and lens maintenance
• Never use any organic solvent such as thinner, alcohol, or benzine, etc. to remove
dust on the lens.
• The lens is a precise optical instrument. Be careful not to let it fall, or subject it to
strong shocks or pressure. Use a cushion or similar pad to protect the lens from the
vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles, boats, etc.
• Avoid subjecting the lens to rapid changes in temperature, otherwise condensation
can occur on both inside and outside of the lens. Put the lens in a plastic bag or
camera bag, and take it out after the lens temperature reaches the ambient level.
• When the lens is not attached to the camera body, attach both the supplied lens cap
and lens mount cover to protect it from dust.
• Do not leave the camera with the lens cap off attached to a tripod or other rigid
camera support. The inner parts of the camera can be damaged by direct sunlight.
* Have the lens inspected by a dealer every one or two years to maintain its high performance .

advance to use the Quick-shift Focus System.
