Precautions when using the camera in the
water
• Do not use the camera deeper than 20 meters underwater. Do not use
the camera underwater for more than 120 minutes consecutively.
• Do not open the battery/card cover underwater.
• Do not use the camera in hot water or in a hot spring.
• Do not apply excessive force to the camera, for example diving into
water with it. Doing so may compromise the waterproof performance of
the camera or cause the cover to open.
• Do not leave the camera on the sand at the beach, as this may cause
the camera to exceed the upper limit of its operational temperature
range, or cause the speaker or microphone to become blocked with
sand.
• Avoid subjecting the camera to substantial vibrations, shocks, or
pressure as this may cause a loss in waterproof performance. If the
camera is subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure, take
your camera to your nearest service center and have it checked.
• Avoid getting sunscreen or sun oil on the camera as it may cause
discoloration of the surface. If any oil gets on the camera, wash it off
immediately with warm water.
• Sudden and extreme changes in temperature may cause condensation
to form in and on the camera. Keep the camera in a bag or case to
reduce the difference in temperature.
Precautions after using the camera in the
water
• Do not open the battery/card cover if the camera is wet. Wipe off any
water with a clean lint-free cloth.
• The inside surface of the cover may get wet when it is opened. Wipe off
any water that is on the cover.
• Wiping off the camera while there is sand or dust on it may scratch the
surface of the camera. Make sure that the battery/card cover is firmly
closed before washing the camera in tap water. After washing the
camera, dry it with a soft cloth.
• Wipe off any dirt or sand on the waterproof seal or the contact surface.
The camera's waterproof performance may be compromised by a loose
seal, or cracks or dents on the seal or the contact surface. If there is any
such damage, contact your nearest service center.
• If the camera becomes very dirty or after it has been used in the sea,
make sure that it is turned off and the battery/card cover is firmly closed
before rinsing it under running tap water or leaving it in a bowl of clean
water for a short time (2 or 3 minutes).
• Avoid cleaning with agents such as soapy water, mild detergents, or
alcohol as this may compromise the waterproof performance of the
camera.
• To maintain the waterproof performance of the camera, you are
recommended to change the waterproof seal once a year. Contact your
nearest service center regarding changing the seal. (A charge will be
made.)
• The camera's accessories are not waterproof (except for the underwater
lens protector O-LP1632).
About the wireless LAN function
• Do not use the camera in a place where electrical products, AV/OA
devices, and so on generate magnetic fields and electromagnetic
waves.
• If the camera is affected by magnetic fields and electromagnetic waves,
it may not be able to communicate.
• If the camera is used near a TV or a radio, poor reception or TV screen
glitch may occur.
• If there are multiple wireless LAN access points near the camera and the
same channel is used, search operation may not be executed correctly.
• The security of your data stored, sent or received is your own
responsibility.
