sits with a dry, lint-free cloth.

If there is any foreign object, such as lint, hair, sand, etc., on the surrounding area,
water will leak within a few seconds causing malfunction.

Wipe it off with a dry soft cloth if there is any liquid.
It may cause water leaks and malfunction if you use the camera with liquid adhered.

If foreign objects are present, wipe them off with a dry, lint-free cloth.

Be extremely careful to remove the small sand etc. that may adhere to the sides and
corners of the rubber seal.

The integrity of the rubber seals may decrease after about 1 year, with use and age. To
avoid permanently damaging the camera the seals should be replaced once each year.
