JVC WR-MG88U Detaching the Marine Case/Maintenance, Storing the O-ring, Main Specifications

Detaching the Marine Case/Maintenance

Always perform maintenance on the marine case after you have fi nished recording. Failing to perform maintenance on the marine case will allow dirt to build up on the case, causing water leaks.

1 Wash the marine case in water while it is still sealed.

•If the marine case was used in seawater, we recommend submerging the marine case in fresh water for a while to remove salt.

•Move the buttons and levers while the marine case is submerged, and rinse the salt out from any gaps or grooves etc.

2 Wipe off the water with a dry cloth, and allow the marine case to completely dry out.

3 Open the marine case, and remove the camera.

4 Remove the O-ring, and wipe off any salt, sand, and any other debris.

Also wipe the groove in which the O-ring was inserted, and the part of the marine case that was in contact with the O-ring, and allow them to dry.

5 Wipe the inside of the marine case with a dry cloth.

Drop a few drops of the cleaning fl uid onto the inside of the front glass, and wipe it off using the silicone cloth etc.

NOTES

•Do not leave the marine case in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause discoloration to the case, and may cause the O-ring to deteriorate more quickly.

•When storing the marine case, unlock the power/ mode switch lever.

•If you cannot avoid opening the marine case at the diving point, make sure that drops of water from your hair or your body do not drop into the case.

Storing the O-ring

If you do not intend to use the marine case for longer than 1 month, remove the O-ring from the marine case, and spread a thin layer of the supplied silicone grease over the entire O-ring. After that, place the O-ring inside a clean plastic bag, and store it in the maintenance kit case.

The O-ring is an expendable part. Replace the O-ring with a brand new one every year.

NOTES

•When re-using an O-ring after storage, always check the condition of the O-ring.

•Never use an O-ring if it is deformed (crushed, distorted), cracked, or damaged in any way.
