on the battery contacts in the camera and/or on the batteries, follow steps below to clean the battery
contacts to ensure proper electrical operation:

1. Wet the tip of a cotton bud/swab with rubbing alcohol and squeeze the excess alcohol from the

bud/swab.

2. Wipe the battery contacts inside the camera battery compartment and both ends of the batteries

lightly with the damp bud.

3. Allow the contacts to dry before placing batteries in the camera.

Caution:

1) Do not press hard during cleaning, as this will cause damage to the battery contacts.

2) Do not use water to clean the contacts, as this will increase the chance of oxidation.

3) Do not use Acetone or Nail Polish remover to clean the contacts as this may adversely affect
camera operation.
