If there is any foreign object, such as lint, hair, sand, etc., on the surrounding area, water
will leak within a few seconds causing malfunction.
•
Wipe it off with a dry soft cloth if there is any liquid.
It may cause water leaks and malfunction if you use the camera with liquid adhered.

If there is any foreign material, remove with supplied brush.
•
Be extremely careful to remove the small sand etc. that may adhere to the sides and
corners of the rubber seal.
