Notes before using the camcorder
under/near water
Make sure that no foreign matter such as sand,
hair, or dirt gets inside the battery/memory
card/jack cover. Even a small amount of
foreign matter may lead to water entering the
camcorder.
Confirm that the sealing gasket and its mating
surfaces have not become scratched. Even a
small scratch may lead to water entering the
camcorder. If the sealing gasket or its mating
surfaces become scratched, take the camcorder
to an authorized repair shop to have the sealing
gasket replaced for a fee.
Sealing gasket
The sealing surfaces of the sealing gasket
If dirt or sand gets on the sealing gasket or its
mating surfaces, wipe the area clean with a
soft cloth that will not leave behind any fibers.
Prevent the sealing gasket from becoming
scratched by touching it while charging a
battery or using a cable.
Do not open/close the battery/memory
card/jack cover with wet or sandy hands or near
water. There is a risk this will lead to sand or
water getting inside. Before opening the cover,
perform the procedure described in “Cleaning
after using the camcorder under/near water”.
Open the battery/memory card/jack cover with
the camcorder completely dry.
Always confirm that the battery/memory card/
jack cover has been securely locked.
Notes on using the camcorder under/
near water
The touch panel may be activated by water
splashes on the screen icons.
The touch panel cannot be operated
underwater. Use the buttons of the camcorder
to perform shooting operations.
Do not subject the camcorder to shock such as
from jumping into water.
Do not open and close the battery/memory
card/jack cover while under/near water.
This camcorder sinks in water. Place your
hand through the wrist strap to prevent the
camcorder from sinking.
Faint, white, circular spots may appear in
under-water flash photos due to reflections off
of floating objects. This is not a malfunction.
Select
(Underwater) in Scene Selection to
shoot underwater with less distortion (p. 44).
If water drops or other foreign matter is present
on the lens, you will not be able to record clear
images.
Cleaning after using the camcorder
under/near water
Always clean the camcorder with water after use
within 60 minutes, and do not open the battery/
memory card/jack cover before cleaning is
finished. Sand or water may get inside places
where it cannot be seen. If not rinsed, water-
proof performance will be degraded.
Allow the camcorder to sit in pure water poured
into a cleaning bowl for about 5 minutes. Then,
gently shake the camcorder, press each button
inside the water to clean away any salt, sand or
other matter lodged around the buttons.
