Water Leakage Test

The final test after loading the camera is explained below. Always perform this test. It can be performed 
easily in a water tank or a bathtub. Confirm the operation of the different buttons. The required time is 
about 5 minutes.
• At first, immerse the Case for only 3 seconds and check that no water enters the Case.
• Next, immerse the Case for 30 seconds and check that no water enters the Case.
• Then, immerse the Case for 3 minutes, operate all buttons and levers, and check the following:

- check that no water drops have entered the Case.
- check that the Case is not fogged internally.
- check that no water has entered the Case.

• If the inside of the Case becomes fogged or there are water drops in the Case, repeat the maintenance 

of the O-ring (P.11) and perform the water leakage test again.
