2 Wipe off the water, place the camera on a dry cloth and leave it to dry for a while in a well-ventilated shaded spot.

3 Check that there is no water on the camera, and open the battery cover and terminal cover.

hMoisture may easily accumulate in the grooves

inside the covers, so take care that no water gets inside.

4 Wipe off any water or sand inside the battery cover and terminal cover with the supplied brush or a soft dry cloth.

i After the camera has been used underwater or soaked in fresh water, moisture may collect in the grooves around the card/battery compartment and connection terminals. In addition, water droplets may adhere to the card or battery if the battery cover is opened without sufficiently drying the camera. Be sure to wipe off the water with a soft dry cloth in such cases.

i Do not open or close the battery cover or terminal cover with water droplets still on the camera. The water droplets may seep into the camera, causing condensation and malfunction.

<Wiping moisture from the camera>

i If there is moisture inside the battery cover, wipe every crevice completely clear of moisture.

*This moisture is not due to exposure to water.
