Notes on use
• Do not throw the Waterproof Case into the water.
• Avoid using the Waterproof Case under the following situations:
– in a very hot or humid place.
– in water hotter than 40°C (104°F).
– at temperatures lower than –10°C (14°F).
In these situations moisture condensation or water leakage may occur and damage the camera.
• Do not leave the Waterproof Case under direct sunlight or in a very hot and humid place for a long period
of time. If you cannot avoid leaving the Waterproof Case under direct sunlight, be sure to cover the
Waterproof Case with a towel or other protection.
• When the camera overheats, it may automatically turn off or recording may malfunction. To use the
camera again, leave it in the cool place for a while to cool down.
• If sun oil is on the Waterproof Case, be sure to wash it off thoroughly using lukewarm water. If the
Waterproof Case is left with sun oil on its body, the surface of the Waterproof Case may become
discolored or damaged (such as cracks on the surface).
Water leakage
If water happens to leak in, stop exposing the Waterproof Case to water immediately.
• If the camera gets wet, take it to the nearest Sony dealer immediately. Repair costs must be borne by the
customer.
• In the unlikely event that a malfunction of the Waterproof Case causes damage due to water leakage,
Sony does not guarantee against damages to the equipment contained in it (camera, battery pack, etc.)
and the recorded contents, nor expenses entailed in the photography.
O-ring
The Waterproof Case uses an O-ring to maintain its water resistance.
O-ring maintenance is very important. Failure to do O-ring maintenance according to the instructions may
lead to water leaks and cause the Waterproof Case to sink.
Inspect the O-ring
• Carefully check that there is any dirt, sand, hair, dust, salt, threads, etc. on the O-ring. If found, be sure to
wipe off with a soft cloth.
• Lightly run your fingertip around the O-ring to check for any invisible dirt.
• Be careful not to leave any cloth fibers on the O-ring after wiping it.
• Check the O-ring for cracks, skewing, distortion, fine splitting, scratches, embedded sand, etc. Replace
the O-ring if you find any of these.
• Inspect the O-ring contact surface on the case body in the same way.
How to check for water leaks
Before installing the camera, always close the Waterproof Case and immerse it in water to make
sure no water leaks in.
O-ring serviceable life
The serviceable life of the O-ring varies with frequency of use of the Waterproof Case and conditions.
Generally, it is about one year.
