It is recommended to clean the camera indoors, avoiding places where water spray or sand may fall.

Do not leave this unit uncared for longer than 60 minutes after using it underwater.

Leaving this unit with foreign objects or saline matter on it may cause damage, discoloration, corrosion, unusual odor, or deterioration of the waterproof performance.

1Rinse with water with the side cover closed.

After use at the seaside or underwater, soak the unit in fresh water pooled in a shallow container for about 10 minutes.

2Drain water by holding this unit and shaking it lightly a few times.

After using this unit at the seaside or underwater, or after washing it, water will remain at the speaker site or mic site of this unit for a while and it may cause lower sound or sound distortion.

4Confirm that there are no water droplets, open the side cover, and wipe off

any water droplets or sand left inside using a soft, dry cloth.

Water droplets may adhere to the card, etc. when the side cover is opened without thoroughly drying. Also, water may accumulate in the gap around the card slot or the terminal connector. Be sure to wipe any water off with a soft, dry cloth.
