Maintenance Precautions After Using

•  Wipe the video camera with a clean, dry , lint free cloth. 

•  When the Micro

ġ

SD cover or interface cover is opened, after underwater use, 

there may be water drops on the inside of the Micro SD cover or interface 
cover. 

•  After using the video camera in the water or near sand, mud or other foreign 

materials, please rinse it with clean water (don’t open the Micro SD card cover 
or interface cover when cleaning). After cleaning, wipe out the video camera 
with a clean, dry, lint free cloth. 

•  To help ensure the camera's waterproof ability, wipe off any dust, sand or 

other foreign material from the rubber gaskets and corresponding interface 
areas. 

•  Don’t use any chemical solvents or agents to clean the camera. Do not use 

silicone conditioners on the rubber. 

Damaged rubber, waterproof gaskets with cracks or scratches will allow 
water or other elements to penetrate the camera. Contact customer service 
for assistance with replacment of parts or the video camera itself.
