Replace consumable products

The O-ring is a consumable product. Independent of the number of times the Case is used, it is recommended that the O-ring should be replaced by a new piece at least once a year.

Deterioration of the O-ring is accelerated by the usage conditions and the storage conditions. Replace the O-ring even before a year has passed if it shows signs of damage, cracking or loss of elasticity.

CAUTION:

Please use genuine Olympus silicone grease, silica gel and O-ring.

Do not try to replace the O-ring by yourself.

We recommend to perform the check periodically.

Maintenance of the threaded sections on the TTL cable and TTL cable connector

If the threaded sections used to connect the TTL cable to the TTL cable connector are not maintained properly, salt and other seawater residue may adhere to the TTL cable and prevent it from being disconnected.

After use in seawater, clean off any salt, sand, or other residue as soon as possible, then dry the equipment thoroughly. Clean the threaded sections with a cotton swab and apply a thin, uniform layer of silicone grease (provided with this case).

Clean and apply silicone grease to these sections.
