USING THE FLOATING BUMPER (HMX-W350 ONLY)

When you put the product into the included floating bumper, the product - with the floating bumper - will float on water. You can record confidently knowing that the product will not sink, even if you accidently drop or release it while recording under water. In addition, the product with the floating bumper can withstand strong shocks.

USING THE WEARABLE BAND (CHEST BAND, ARM BAND) (HMX-W350 ONLY)

When you enjoy outdoor sports activities such as skiing or skydiving, the included wearable arm band or chest band lets you bring the product with you. To use, insert the product with the floating bumper into the product holder, attach the chest band or arm band to the holder, and then strap the arm band or chest band around your arm or chest respectively. ¬pages 98~99

Be careful when using the chest band. Because the chest band holds the product against your chest, if you fall forward while recording, you can suffer a chest injury.
