HP Photosmart E217 User’s Manual
• Always turn the camera off when you are not using it to
protect the lens. When the camera is off, the camera lens
retracts and the lens wink mechanism closes over the lens
to protect it.
• Clean your camera body, Image Display, and lens
regularly with cleaning supplies designed specifically for
cameras. See Cleaning the Camera on page 125.
• Keep your camera and accessories in a padded case
with a good strap for easy transport. Most HP digital
camera cases have built-in pockets for batteries and
memory cards. See Purchasing Camera Accessories on
page 121.
• Always keep your camera equipment with you as carry-
on when you travel. Never check it with suitcases, since
rough handling and extreme weather can damage it.
• Never open your camera’s casing or attempt to repair
the camera yourself. Touching the inside of a digital
camera can result in electrical shock. Contact an
authorized HP Service Center for repairs.
NOTE: For information about handling batteries safely, see
Appendix A, Managing Batteries, starting on page111.
