Important!
Concerning your camera’s waterproof feature
This camera complies with JIS IPX8 (formerly JIS protection grade 8) waterproof standard and can be used in water. Note, however, that failing to heed the following precautions may result in damage or injury that is not covered by the warranty. Please take the time to carefully read and heed the following cautions.
NOTE
k Before using the camera
i When closing the battery/card compartment cover, make sure that no foreign object such as sand, hair, dust, etc. is caught in the seal.
i Make sure that the battery/card compartment cover is completely and securely closed to prevent water from getting inside the camera and damaging it.
i Please note that the camera accessories are not waterproof.
k Cautions concerning use in water
i The waterproof properties of the camera apply to fresh water and saltwater only; they do not apply to cleaning substances, chemicals or water from spas, etc. In
case of a splash, immediately wipe off any moisture. i Do not immerse in water at a depth greater than 1.5 m
(4.92 ft.).
i Do not subject the camera to high-pressure water. i Do not immerse in water for longer than 60 minutes. After 60 minutes of use in water, allow it to dry for at least 10 minutes.
i Do not immerse in water that is warmer than 40 °C (104°F).
i Do not open and close the battery/card compartment cover when the camera is wet or while it is immersed in water.
i Do not open and close the battery/card compartment cover with wet hands. i Do not open the battery/card compartment cover on the beach or at the
poolside.
i Do not jolt the camera while it is immersed in water. Doing so may cause the battery/card compartment cover to open.
xxi English
NOTE
k Storing and maintaining your camera
i Do not leave the camera unwashed after it has been immersed in salt water or if salt water is adhering to it. Doing so may cause corrosion and discoloration of the plating, as well as deterioration of the camera’s waterproof capability.
i After the camera has been used in water, use fresh water to wash it. Never use soap or detergent to clean the camera, as doing so will cause deterioration of the camera’s waterproof capability.
i After washing the camera, take care to completely drain it, and use a dry cloth to wipe off any drops of water adhering to it (page 67).
i Do not leave the camera in an environment colder than 0 °C (32°F) or warmer than 40 °C (104°F), as doing so may cause deterioration of the camera’s waterproof capability.
i Waterproof seals are used in this camera. It is recommended that the waterproof seals be replaced every year with new ones. For replacing the seals, please consult your dealer.
*Please note that there is a fee for replacing the waterproof seal.
k Other cautions
i Do not subject the camera to severe jolts, as doing so may deform the battery/card compartment cover or camera body, thus compromising its waterproof capability. If the camera has been subjected to a strong jolt, please consult with your dealer.
HINT
What is “JIS IPX8” (formerly “JIS protection grade 8”)?
i “JIS IPX8” specifies that a device is protected against the effects of continuous immersion in water.
