Lens
Care
• Do
not
pick
up
or
hold
the
lens
or
camera using
only
the
lens
hood.
• Keep the
CPU
contacts
clean.
• Should
the
rubber
lens-mount
gasket be damaged,
cease
use
immediately
and take
the
lens
to
a Nikon-authorized
service center for repair.
•
Use
a blower
to
remove dust and
lint
from
the
lens surfaces.
To
remove smudges and fingerprints, apply
a
small
amount
of
ethanol
or
lens cleaner
to
a soft, clean
cotton cloth
or
lens-cleaning tissue and
clean
from the center outwards
using a
circular
motion, taking care
not
to
leave
smears
or
touch the
glass
with
your fingers.
• Never
use
organic
solvents
such
as
paint thinner or benzene
to
clean
the
lens.
• The
lens
hood or
NC
filters
can be used
to
protect
the
front
lens element.
•
Attach the
front
and rear caps before
placing
the
lens
in its
flexible
pouch.
•
If
the
lens will
not
be used for
an
extended period, store
it
in
a
cool,
dry
location
to
prevent
mold
and rust. Do
not
store
in direct sunlight or
with
naphtha or camphor
moth
balls.
•
Keep the lens dry. Rusting
of
the
internal
mechanism can
cause
irreparable damage.
• Leaving the lens
in
extremely
hot
locations could
damage
or
warp parts made from reinforced
plastic.
