OPERATION PRECAUTIONS®
-HANDING AND SAGE-
1. Do not try to open or close the body
angle beyond its limit. Also, do not
try to turn the diopter ring, the center
focus ring, or the zoom ring beyond
their limits. (Ref. Figure 7)
2. Do not subject the product to shocks.
If you accidentally hit or drop the
product and the image appears
abnomal, please consult Vixen
customer service. (Ref. Figure 8)
3. The lens may fog up due to sudden
temperature change such as when
bringing the product into a warm
room from cold outdoors. Should
this occur, let the product dry
naturally at normal temperature.
4. Keep the product away from rain,
water splash, salt water, sand, and
mud. Waterproof product may be
used in rain or in wet environments,
but wipe them dry after use.
OPERATION PRECAUTIONS®
-CARE AND MAIN1ENANCE-
9. To clean the body surface, dust it off
lightly and wipe it using a clean
cloth. After usage by seaside, wipe it
with a clean moist cloth to remove
the salt and then wipe it dry with a
dry cloth. Do not use benzene, paint
thinner, or a cleaner containing
alcohol. (Ref. Figure 11)
10. Blow off all abrasive dirt and dust on
the lens surface with a camera cleaning
blower or a soft oil-free brush. With
the dust removed, use a lens cleaning
tissue moistened with a few drops of
a lens cleaning solution for fingerprints.
Wipe it out gently. (Ref. Figure 12)
The lens surface is very susceptible to
scratches. In cleaning much care
must be taken to avoid damaging the
lens surface. Read instructions for a
lens cleaning solution thoroughly if it
is used.
11. Use a brush to remove sands and dirts
from the rotating parts on the
focusing knob and the diopter ring.
(Ref. Figure 13)
