CV-4 is designed to be used by the sportsperson, boater or casual user in an
environment in which exposure to water, such as rain, mist, splashing and so forth,
might be a possibility.However, it is not designed to take pictures underwater nor is it
intended for any application underwater.In other words, it is intended to be resistant
to accidental exposure to water.It is not designed for intentional submersion or
extended use in water.If CV-4 is intentionally immersed in water for any
significant length of time, the electronics and optics may be damaged or destroyed,
and you risk voiding the warranty in doing so.
Also note that although CV-4 may be used near a water environment, water on the
lens will cause the images that you capture to be distorted, just as it would with any
camera.Take the time to towel off the camera lens with a soft cloth before attempting
to capture an image.Also wipe off water from the entire device when you leave the
water environment, and especially before storing.
Make sure you observe the following directions before opening or closing the
battery compartment in order to provide a water-tight seal for the electronics.
•Make sure that you are in a dry location before opening the battery cover for any
activity.
• To open the battery compartment, press the tab down and push the
battery compartment lid forward to open.
• To seal the compartment, close the lid and slide the tab up.The tab must be
locked in the up position for the compartment to be properly sealed.
