sand can cause a leak. You can test by closing the case without inserting the camera. Submerse the case

waterproof case. There is no external button for the Mode Switch.
! After every use in salt water you will need to rinse the outside of the housing with non-salt water and dry.
Not doing this can eventually cause corrosion of the hinge pin and salt buildup in the seal, which can cause failure.
! To clean the seal, rinse in fresh water and shake dry (drying with a cloth may cause lint to compromise the
seal). Re-install the seal into the grooves in the backdoor of the housing.
