Waterproof Case Using Notice
Before sealing the waterproof case, keep the camera
housing’s rubber seal clean, a single hair or dust or sand
can cause the leakage. You can test by closing the case without inserting the camera. Submerse the case completely in water for about a minute. Remove the case from the water, dry off its exterior with a towel then open the case. If the entire interior is dry, the case is safe for use under water.
Remember to set the camera at the desired mode before
putting the camera in the waterproof case. There is no external button on the case for the contact to the mode icon on the LCD display.
After every use in salt water you will need to rinse the
outside of the case with non-salt water and dry the case. 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 it in fresh water and dry it.
Re-install the seal into the grooves in the backdoor of the housing.
