WARNING

• Never look at the sun

through the lens or

camera. Serious damage to

the retina, or total loss of

eyesight may occur.

• Wrapping the strap around

your neck is dangerous.

Make sure that small

children do not get the

strap caught around their

neck. (A strap is supplied

only with some large types

of lenses)

direct sunlight without lens

caps. Sunrays passing

PRECAUTIONS AND LENS MAINTENANCE 3

1. 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 location such as a closet, ward-

robe, 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 in a dry cabinet, airtight container, or plastic

bag. (Leaving a saturated desiccant in the storage container can cause dam-

age to the lens. Be sure to read the instructions that come with the desiccant

before use.)

2. The lens is not waterproof. When using the lens in a rain or mist, be careful

not to allow it to get wet.

3. Never use any organic solvent such as thinner, alcohol, or benzine, etc. to

remove dust on the lens.

4. 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 or other vehicles, boats, etc.

5. Avoid subjecting the lens to rapid changes in temperature, otherwise con-

densation may occur on both the inside and the outside of the lens. Put the

lens in a plastic bag or camera bag, and take it out after the lens has reached

ambient temperature.

6. When the lens is not attached to the camera body, attach both the provided

lens cap and lens mount cap to protect it from dust.

7. 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.

8. Have the lens inspected by a dealer every one or two years to maintain its

high performance.
