Scratches

Crack

Remove any dust, sand or hair from the O-ring.

Make sure there is no dust, sand or hair on the O-ring, in the groove, or on the surface of the marine pack where

the O-ring touches. If there is, clean them completely, or the O-ring and the surface of the marine pack may be damaged and water may leak in.

Grease the O-ring

The grease protects the O-ring from wear.

Check that there are no cracks or dust on the O-ring, then grease it using your finger. While greasing, double check that there are no cracks or dust.

Never use cloth or paper to apply grease because the fibers may cling.

Do not use any type of grease other then the supplied one, or it may damage the O-ring.

If you run out of silicone grease (2-115-921-01) you can purchase it from your nearest Sony Service Center.

Do not twist the O-ring.

Put the O-ring in the groove evenly. Never twist it.

Not this way

Do not pinch the O-ring with the marine pack.

When joining the front and rear shells, take care not to pinch the O-ring between them. If this happens, not only will the O-ring be damaged, but water may leak in.

Storage

Put the supplied spare O-rings in the original carton and store it in a cool place.

∙Do not expose the O-ring to direct sunlight.

∙Do not place a heavy object on the O-ring.

∙Do not fold the O-ring.
