Maintenance of the camera
CLEANING THE LENS
Install the lens protector (included) on the lens of the camera when it is
used without the waterproof housing. To clean the lens, use an air blower
to remove dirt such as dust or sand. Then gently wipe the lens tissue
(included) on the lens.
CLEANING THE CAMERA
Gently wipe the camera with a soft, dry cloth. DO NOT use thinners or other
cleaners to clean the camera, these products can cause damage.
CLEANING THE WATERPROOF HOUSING
It is important that the rubber gasket is always clean to ensure a
perfect seal.
Rinse the housing in fresh water and shake it to dry. Do not
use a cloth to dry the seal, as lint may settle there and compromise the
effectiveness of thereof. After the use of the housing in salt water, rinse it in
fresh water and dry it. The salt can accumulate on the seal and the buttons
may rust.
Note:
It is important to follow these tips, because the warranty does
not cover any GG Telecom products which has been subjected to water
damage due to an user error.
