❚❚ Shock-Proofi ng
The waterproof case is not designed to protect the camera from blows or vibration. Do not
drop the case, strike it against hard objects, throw it into the water, jump into the water hold-
ing the case, or leave the case in an area subject to extreme vibration. Failure to observe these
precautions could result in damage to the camera.

❚❚ Operating Environment
Note the following precautions:
• At low temperatures, the camera may not perform as expected immediately after being

turned on and battery performance may drop. Keep spare batteries in a warm location and
exchange as necessary.

• In cold environments, remove any snow or rain immediately. The controls may become dif-

fi cult to operate if allowed to freeze.

• Prolonged contact with cold metal can damage exposed skin. Wear gloves when handling

the case for extended periods at low temperatures.

• Do not leave the case in areas exposed to high temperatures, such as inside a car, near a heater,

on a beach, or in direct sunlight. Failure to observe this precaution could weaken or warp
the case, resulting in damage to the camera. Sudden changes in temperature could result in
condensation inside the case, which could also damage the camera. To prevent condensation:

- When moving from one location to another that is noticeable warmer or colder, leave the

camera in the case until it has reached the same temperature as its surroundings.

- Place the supplied desiccant (silica gel) in the case with the camera as directed on page 14

of this manual.

- Do not expose the case to high temperatures by leaving it on the beach or in direct sun-

light before entering the water.
