(3)In  case  of  the  following  handling  with  a  camera  loaded  into  the  Case,

trouble  or  breakage  may  be  caused  for  the  Case  and/or  the  loaded
camera. Always avoid such handling.

(a)Hitting other objects
(b)Dropping
(c)Placing heavy objects on top of the Case

(4)When  the  Case  is  not  used  for  a  long  time,  trouble  from  formation  of

mold  etc.  may  be  caused.  Before  use,  confirm  the  operation  of  all
operation parts and perform the advance test and the final test.

Q4:What cautions must be observed when opening and closing the Case?
A4:Pay special attention to the following items.

(1)Do not open and close the Case at locations with water spray or sand

spray.

(2)Wipe off all waterdrops from the gap between the front lid and the rear

lid and around projections and recesses such as the buckles. When this
is not done, entry of waterdrops into the Case is to be feared at the time
of opening and closing.

(3)When opening the Case, take care that no water will drip from your hair

or body into the Case or onto the camera.

(4)When  the  Case  is  open,  check  that  there  is  no  attachment  of  sand,

fibers  or  other  foreign  matter  to  the  O-ring  and  the  O-ring  contact
surface on the front lid.

(5)Do not touch the camera or the image storage with your hands to which

sea water is sticking.

(6)If  you  should  detect  waterdrops  or  other  signs  of  water  leakage  while

shooting,  immediately  end  the  dive,  perform  the  water  leakage  test
again, and confirm that there is no leakage. If the camera is wet, wipe
off any moisture and check the operation.

Q5:How should the Case be handled after use?
A5:After use, take out the camera as soon as possible and wash the Case

with pure water. In case of use in the ocean, it is effective to immerse
the  Case  for  a  certain  time  in  pure  water  to  remove  any  salt.  Operate
the buttons and levers under water to turn the shafts and wash off any
salt. After washing, use a dry cloth without any salt on it to wipe off any
moisture and dry the Case in the shade. Do not use hot air from a hair
drier or the like and do not dry the Case under direct sunlight. Exposure
to  high  temperatures  or  direct  sunlight  may  cause  deformation,
discoloration  or  breakage  of  the  Case  and  deterioration  of  the  O-ring.
