Do not use the camera in water 3 meters (9.8 feet) or deeper.

Do not use the camera in water for more than 2 hours consecutively.

Do not open or close the battery-chamber cover in water.

Do not use the camera in hot water, for example in a hot spring bath.

Do not apply excessive force to the camera. The camera may be damaged if you dive into water with it, for example.

Wash sunscreen or suntan oil off the camera immediately with warm water if you accidentally spill or apply any. The oils may discolor the camera.

Should you subject the camera to substantial vibration, shock or pressure, it may be less resistant to water. Contact the store where you purchased the camera, or our Repair Service.
