7 Cleaning and maintenance
1 Do not dry the camera or battery with an external heat source such
as a microwave oven or hair dryer.
1 The rubber seal that lines the camera housing forms a waterproof
barrier that protects the appliance in wet and underwater conditions.
Keep the appliance housing's rubber seal clean. A single hair or grain
of sand can cause a leak and damage your camera.
• If you do not use the appliance for an extended period, remove the
batteries.
• Clean the lens with a camera lens brush/blower (not included) if the
lens is dirty.
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a soft cloth.
• After every use in salt water, rinse the outside of the camera housing
with non-salt water and dry. Not doing this can eventually cause
corrosion of the hinge pin and salt buildup in the seal, which can
damage the camera housing.
