Notes for general use:
(If the USB cable is directly connected to a computer or if the AV
cable is connected to a TV, be careful in plugging it, do not allow it
to touch the battery/USB compartment cover to avoid waterproof
loss.)
•
Avoid opening or closing the battery/USB compartment cover
near the water’s edge (sea, lake, beach, lake, etc.). Do not open
or close the cover with wet hands, or hands with sand or dust.
•
If taking pictures near the water’s edge, pay attention not to
drop the front lens. If it is dropped, wipe off water drops using
a non-fiber clean cloth or a soft absorbent cotton cloth as soon
as possible so as not to leave water drop marks.
•
The accessories (batteries, etc.) used with the camera are not
water resistant, be careful in using them.
•
Do not drop the camera to ensure waterproof durability.
•
Do not place the camera in temperatures above 40°C or below
0°C to ensure waterproof durability.

Do not attempt to make the camera waterproof or seal the
vents yourself, doing so may damage the camera’s waterproof
ability.
