CLEAN THE SENSOR UNIT FILTER

Caution!
Be careful when you attach/detach the components to/from
the camera. This will help prevent damage to the data bus
connections.
Caution!
When you remove the sensor unit, keep foreign objects away
from the camera opening. The camera opening is very sensitive.
This will help prevent damage to the equipment.
1 Remove USB 3 cable if connected.
2 Rotate the sensor unit release button to the right.
3 Maintain the position and press the centre of the button
firmly inwards towards the camera body (X) to finally release
the magazine.
4 Carefully clean the outside surface of IR filter by using clean
compressed air.
Caution!
If you use canned compressed air to clean the glass of IR filter,
read the instructions very carefully before use. This will help
prevent damage to the filter.
If compressed air did not remove all the problems on the filter,
use an E-wipe. Do as follows:
5 Tear at the notch to break seal.
6 Remove an E-wipe from the package and fold the tissue to
match the width of the IR filter.
7 Apply firm pressure using two or three fingers at the edge of
the wipe to ensure an even, firm contact with filter surface.
8 Wipe the surface in one unbroken motion.
Note!
Do not use same side of the E-wipe twice as you will be likely to
reapply particles removed in the first pass.
9 Attach the sensor unit again to the camera immediately after
cleaning.
10 Capture a number of images.
11 Inspect the images.
If you still see spots on your images, you may have dust either
on the inside of the IR filter or on the CMOS itself. Do as
follows:

Caution!
Do not try to remove the glass IR filter from the front of the

equipment. Always contact your local Hasselblad Authorized
Service Center.
