Olympus PT-017 manual Insertion of silica gel, Check the loading status

Insertion of silica gel

Before sealing the Case, insert the accessory silica gel bag (for prevention of fogging) between the bottom of the camera and the Case. Insert the bag with the glued longer side to the inside.

Pay attention to the orientation.

CAUTION ：・Insert the silica gel all the way at the specified location and with the specified orientation. When the orientation is not correct, the silica gel bag will be caught when the Case is sealed and water leakage will be caused.

・Attempting to seal the Case with the bag inserted only part of the way will cause the silica gel bag to get caught by the O-ring and water leakage will occur.

・Once silica gel has been used, the moisture absorption performance will be impaired. Always exchange the silica gel when the Case is opened and closed.

Check the loading status.

Always perform the following final checks before sealing the Case.

・Has the silica gel been inserted all the way at the specified position? ・Has the O-ring at the Case opening part been installed properly?

・Are the O-ring and the O-ring contact surface on the front lid free of dirt and other foreign matter?
