Precautions and care instructions
General precautions
• Do not use the LEICA S2 in the immediate vicinity of devices
with powerful magnetic, electrostatic or electromagnetic
fields (e.g. induction ovens, microwave ovens, television sets
or computer monitors, video game consoles, cell phones,
radio equipment).
• If you place the LEICA S2 on or very close to a television set,
its magnetic field could interfere with picture recordings.
• The same applies for use in the vicinity of cell phones.
• Strong magnetic fields, e.g. from speakers or large electric
motors, can damage the stored data or the pictures.
• If due to the effects of electromagnetic fields the LEICA S2
malfunctions, remove the battery and then switch the camera
on again after replacing the battery. Do not use the LEICA S2 in
the immediate vicinity of radio transmitters or high-voltage
power lines.
• Their magnetic fields can also interfere with picture record -
ings. Protect the LEICA S2 from contact with insect sprays
and other aggressive chemicals. Petroleum spirit, thinner and
alcohol may not be used for cleaning.
• Certain chemicals and liquids can damage the LEICA S2 body
or the surface finish.
• As rubber and plastics sometimes emit aggressive chemi-
cals, they should not remain in contact with the LEICA S2 for
extended periods.
• The LEICA S2 has a range of design features that provide a
certain amount of protection against moisture and dust.
Nevertheless, you should ensure that neither water nor sand
and dust can get into the camera body, e.g. when it is snow -
ing or raining and on the beach.
• and and dust can damage the camera and the memory card.
Take particular care when changing lenses and when inser-
ting and removing the cards.
• If moisture does get in, it can cause malfunctions and even
permanent damage to the LEICA S2 and the memory cards.
• If saltwater spray gets onto the LEICA S2, wet a soft cloth
with tap water, wring it out thoroughly and wipe the camera
with it. Then wipe down thoroughly with a dry cloth.
Monitor and top panel display
• If the LEICA S2 is exposed to significant temperature fluctua-
tions, condensation can form on the displays. Wipe them
carefully with a soft dry cloth.
• If the LEICA S2 is very cold when it is turned on, the displays
may at first appear darker than usual. As soon as the camera
warms up, they will regain their normal brightness. The moni-
tor is manufactured using a high-precision process. This
ensures that, of the total of around 460,000 pixels, more than
99.995% work correctly and only 0.005% remain dark or are
always light. However, this is not a malfunction and it does
not impair the reproduction of the picture.
Sensor
Cosmic radiation (e.g. on flights) can cause pixel defects.
