Caution for Use
(continued)
≥
Use only the specified grease. If you use other types of grease, the surface of
the O-ring may be damaged causing water leakage.
≥
The O-ring comes into contact with the sides of the Case making the Case
waterproof. Do not knock, insert foreign materials (dirt, sand, hair etc.) or scratch
the O-ring or sides of the Case.
≥
Use the tips of your fingers to remove the O-ring. Do not use a pointed object as it
may scratch the O-ring.
≥
After removing the O-ring from the rear case, wipe off any dirt, sand, hair or other
foreign materials on it. Also wipe the O-ring groove and the inner sides of the front
case which come into contact with the O-ring.
≥
Never use an O-ring that has been scratched or damaged by dirt etc. This will cause
water leakage. Replace it with a new O-ring.
≥
After replacing the O-ring, when not in use for a long period of time, after attaching
the digital camera or when replacing the battery, if the marine case is opened
please thoroughly check the O-ring for damage or any cracks.
After checking, shut the marine case, immerse in water (a water tank or a bath tub)
for approximately 3 minutes or more, then check that there are no water leaks. (P14)
≥
O-rings are consumable products. Although the lifespan of O-rings will depend on
how well they are maintained, how often they are used and their storage conditions,
we recommend replacing them every year even if you cannot see any scratches.

≥
When wiping the inside of the Case, only use a soft, dry cloth. Wipe the inside of the
front glass with a soft, dry cloth before and after use to keep the glass clear.
