Inserting the Battery and a Memory Card

4Close and latch the battery-chamber cover.

Holding the battery-chamber cover closed against the camera body (q), rotate the latch until it clicks into place (w), indicating that the cover is secure.

Q Before closing the cover, confirm that there is no dust, sand, or other foreign matter on the water-resistant seal or adjacent surfaces.

Q When closing the battery-chamber cover, do not subject it to excessive horizontal forces. Failure to observe this precaution could cause the water-resistant seal to become misaligned, allowing water into the camera.

Q Check that the cover is secure by rotating the latch in the opposite direction and confirming that the cover does not open.

Confirming That the Cover Is Latched

Make sure that the strap is not caught in the cover and that the latch is closed.
