Marine Case
User’s Manual
ENGLISH
Names of the parts
Please read before use.
This marine case is a precision instrument designed
to permit safe video recording under high water
pressure. Please pay careful attention when handling
the unit before and after use, as explained in this
user’s manual.
Each part of the marine case has been subject to
strict controls during the manufacturing process, and
the individual functions have faced stringent tests
during the assembly process. Each marine case has
also had to pass water-proof inspections using high-
pressure water testers. However, damage can some-
times occur during transport and distribution, or
during storage after purchase, so before diving
always carry out the following pre-use test to verify
safety.
Pre-use test
When using the marine case for the first time after pur-
chase, or after it has been in storage for a long time, dive
to the usage depth with only the empty marine case
(without mounting the camcorder inside), and test for
water leaks.
