KM D7 Clean CCD is disabled

Unread post by paramitepie »

I need to clean the CCD on my KM Dynax 7D.
The manual shows the CleanCCD option with 'Enter' on the right h
My menu item seems to be disabled, showing only a hyphen.
Pressing the 'action' button does nothing.

Does anyone know why that would be, and what I can do about it?
Thanks

Plug in a mains adaptor. Your battery may be too old for the function to work. Just a guess, but it does require a 100% charged battery.

Thanks for that, David.

I realised, after seeing more pictures in the manual, that the problem was between the camera and the chair. :?
I needed to press the right arrow to get it to display 'Enter'.
It worked a treat. Dust is gone and all is right with the world.

Good tip about the power for next time I clean.

Thanks,
Graham
