CE Warning notice

Modern electronic elements react sensitively to electrostatic discharge.
As people can easily pick up charges of tens of thousands of volts, by walking on synthetic carpets for
example, a discharge can occur when you touch your LEICA, particularly if it is placed on a conductive
surface. If only the camera housing is affected, this discharge is totally harmless to the electronics.
However, despite built-in safety circuits, the outer contacts, such as the battery or rear panel contacts,
should not be touched if at all possible for safety reasons.
For any cleaning of the contacts, do not use an optical micro-fiber cloth (synthetic); use a cotton or
linen cloth instead. Before touching the contacts, you can make sure you discharge any electrostatic
charge by deliberately touching a heating or water pipe (conductive, earthed material).
Please also avoid soiling and oxidisation of the contacts by storing your LEICA closed in a dry place.
