2 Drain water by holding the camera upside-down A and the right way up B and
shaking it lightly a few times.
•
After using the camera at the beach or in water, or after washing it, water may remain
around the speaker and microphone for a while and may cause a drop in volume or sound
distortion.
• Fasten the strap firmly to prevent the camera from dropping.
3 Wipe off water drops on the camera with a
dry soft cloth and dry the camera in a
shaded area which is well ventilated.
•
Dry the camera by standing it on a dry cloth.
This unit incorporates drain design, draining
water in gaps in the camera [ON/OFF] button
and zoom button etc.
• Do not dry the camera with hot air from dryer
or similar. Waterproof performance will
deteriorate due to deformation.
• Do not use chemicals such as benzine, thinner, alcohol or cleanser, soap or detergents.
4 Confirm that there are no water droplets, open the side door, and wipe off any
water droplets or sand left inside using a soft dry cloth. (P133)
•
Water droplets may adhere to the card or battery when the side door is opened without
thoroughly drying. Also, water may accumulate in the gap around the card/battery slot or
the terminal connector. Be sure to wipe any water off with a soft dry cloth.
• The water droplets may seep into the camera when the side door is closed while it is still
wet, causing condensation or failure.
