Whenever you set the power switch to <1/J> or <2>, the Self
Cleaning Sensor Unit operates (approx. 1 sec.) to automatically shake
off the dust on the front of the sensor. Normally, you need not be aware
of this operation. However, you can execute the sensor cleaning at
anytime as well as disable it.

The user-executed cleaning takes about 2.5 sec. to complete.
For best results, do the sensor cleaning while the camera bottom is
placed on a table or other surface at a perpendicular angle.
Even if you repeat the sensor cleaning multiple times, the result will not
improve that much. Right after the sensor cleaning is finished, the [Clean
nowf] option will remain disabled temporarily.
