About the water drainage structure
The camera has a water drainage structure.
Water that enters gaps such as those around the
Power button or zoom button flows to the outside.
For this reason, bubbles may appear when the camera
is soaked in water, but this is not a malfunction.
•Water may accumulate around the card/battery compartment or the
connection sockets after using the camera underwater or soaking it in
fresh water. If the card/battery door is opened while the camera is not
completely dry, water droplets may adhere to the card or battery. If
this happens, be sure to wipe with a soft and dry cloth.
• Do not open or close the card/battery door or terminal cover while
there are water droplets on the camera. The water droplets may get
inside the camera and cause condensation or a malfunction.
• Example of water droplets around the card/
battery compartment

●
If water droplets or dirt are adhered to the camera, wipe them off with a
soft and dry cloth.
●
After using the camera underwater, do not leave it for more than
60 minutes without performing the care procedure. The waterproof
performance may deteriorate.
●
If the buttons such as button or Power button do not move smoothly,
it may be because there are adhered foreign objects. Continuing to
use the camera in such a state may result in a malfunction where the
camera becomes inoperable. Shake the camera well in fresh water to
wash off any foreign objects. Then, confirm that buttons move smoothly.
●
Water, sand and other foreign objects easily enter the speaker, so after
using the camera, be sure to rinse with water and then shake it gently
several times to remove any water droplets.
●
Do not dry the camera with hot air, such as from a hair dryer.
Deformation may deteriorate the waterproof performance.
●
Do not use soap, neutral detergents, or chemicals such as benzine,
thinner, alcohol or cleansers.
Check that all the accessories are supplied before using the camera. Part
numbers are as of July 2010.
