Appendix
Be careful to not let the mechanical blower (commercially available) touch the
CCD. If the blower touches the CCD, the CCD will be damaged.
Never put the mechanical blower behind the lens mount. If the power turns
off, the shutter closes, breaking the shutter curtain.
Do not use anything other than the mechanical blower. If high-pressure gas is
sprayed onto the CCD, it will freeze on the CCD’s surface, damaging the CCD.
Note
If dust or dirt gets on the CCD, black dots may appear in the picture. If this
happens, contact your Olympus Authorized Service Center to have the CCD
physically cleaned. The CCD is a precision device and is easily damaged. When
cleaning the CCD yourself, be sure to follow the instructions below.
When cleaning the CCD, the specified AC adapter should be used (~ P. 206). If
a battery is used and power runs out during cleaning, the shutter will close, which
may cause the shutter curtain and mirror to break.
