For Prevention of Water Leakage Accidents
When water leakage occurs while this product is being used, the camera inside may be irreparably damaged. To avoid this, please take the following precautions.
1. When sealing this product, make sure that there are no hairs, fibers, sand particles or other foreign matter adhering to the waterproof packing or the surface that comes in contact with the packing. Even a single hair or a single grain of sand may cause water leakage. Please take extra care when checking.
<Examples of foreign matter sticking to the waterproof packing>
Hair Fibers Grains of sand
2. The speed at which the waterproof packing deteriorates depends
on usage and storage conditions. If the waterproof packing
is damaged, shows cracks, or has lost its elasticity, leakage may result.
3. This product has an airtight plastic (polycarbonate) construction. Its water resistant properties may be affected if it is deformed by exposure to high temperatures for a long period (for example, if it is left in an automobile, on a boat, or at the beach), or subjection to uneven external force for a long time. Also, do not place heavy objects on this product during storage or transport.
4. When the surface in contact with the waterproof packing is pressed strongly from the outside of the product, or when the product is twisted, the water resistant function may be lost. Take care not to exert excessive force.
5. Before using this product, perform the preliminary test and the final check.
6. If you notice drops of water or other signs of water leakage while taking pictures, stop shooting immediately, remove any water from the camera and the product, and perform the tests in "Final check" to determine whether leakage has occurred or not.
