Wash the Case with pure water.

After use, seal the Case again after taking out the camera and wash it
sufficiently in pure water as soon as possible. After use in sea water, it is
effective to immerse it for a fixed time in pure water to remove any salt.

: • Water leakage may be caused when a high water

pressure is applied locally. Before washing the Case with
water, take out the digital camera from it.

• Operate the shutter lever and various buttons of this

product in pure water to remove salt adhering to the
shaft. Do not disassemble for cleaning.

• Drying the Case with adhering salt may impair the

function. Always wash off any salt after use.

CAUTION

Dry the Case.

After washing with pure water, use a soft cloth without any salt on it and
not causing any fibers to wipe off any waterdrop and dry the Case
completely at a well ventilated location in the shade.

: • Do not use hot air from a hair drier or the like for drying and

do not expose the Case to direct sunlight, as this may
accelerate deterioration and deformation of the Case and
deterioration of the O-ring, leading to leakage of water.
When wiping the Case, take care not to cause scratches.

CAUTION
