Before recording

Submerge the marine case with the camera
inserted into a bathtub or water tank full of fresh
water. Gradually prolong the time the marine case
is submerged as follows.
z1st time: 5 ~ 10 seconds
z2nd time: 30 seconds ~ 1 minute
z3rd time: 3 minutes ~ 5 minutes (try operating
the levers and buttons while the marine case is
submerged).
zAlways have someone hold the marine case
for you when diving into, or getting out of
water, to prevent loss or damages.
zIf for any reason water leakage occurs, remove
the camera battery. It may cause the camera to
explode.
ATurn on the camera’s power.
zPress and hold the power button for more
than 2 seconds to turn on the power. (The
camera’s power lamp lights and the
monitor turns on.)
zSometimes, due to sudden shaking or
impact to the marine case, the camera’s
drop detection function operates to turn off
the camera’s power. When the camera’s
power is turned off, turn it on again.
