Before Use

2 Drain water by holding the camera upside down and shaking it lightly a few times.

After using the camera at the seaside or under water, or after washing it, water will remain at the speaker site of the camera for a while and it may cause lower sound or sound distortion.

Fasten the strap firmly to prevent the camera from dropping.

3 Wipe off water drops on the camera with a

dry soft cloth and dry the camera in a shaded area which is well ventilated.

Dry the camera by standing it on a dry cloth. This unit incorporates drain design, draining water in gaps in the camera [OFF/ON] button and zoom button etc.

Do not dry the camera with hot air from dryer or similar. Waterproof performance will deteriorate due to deformation.

Do not use chemicals such as benzine, thinner, alcohol, or cleanser, or soap or detergents.

4Confirm that there are no water droplets, open the side door, and wipe off any water droplets or sand left inside using a soft dry cloth.

Water droplets may adhere to the card or battery when the side door is opened without thoroughly drying. Also, water may accumulate in the gap around the card/battery compartment or the terminal connector. Be sure to wipe any water off with a soft dry cloth.

The water droplets may seep into the camera when the side door is closed while it is still wet, causing condensation or failure.
