FOR PROPER AND SAFE USE
Read and understand all warnings and cautions before using the Marine Case.
Always follow the warnings and cautions in the camera's instruction manual.
WARNING
• Do not disassemble or modify the case. This can result in flooding or malfunc-
tion.
• Store the case out of reach of children or infants. Be careful when around
them not to harm them with the case or parts.
• Keep small parts that could be swallowed, such as the O ring, O-ring grease,
and desiccant, away from infants. Contact a doctor immediately if an object is
swallowed.
• Pay attention when recording underwater to avoid accidents.
• Do not wear the strap around the neck underwater. The strap may become
entangled and cause injury.
• If the case leaks, discontinue use. Remove the camera from the case and the
battery from the camera as soon as possible. If diving at a great depth, take
the necessary precautions to avoid decompression sickness. Do not handle
the camera and battery with wet hands. The continued use of a damaged
product or part may cause injuries or fire.
• If the case leaked, open with care. The increased pressure inside the case will
cause it to open with extreme force.
• If smoke is seen in the case, or the case becomes hot, discontinue use.
Immediately remove the camera from the case and the battery from the cam-
era taking care not to burn yourself as the camera and battery become hot
with use. Do not handle the camera or battery with wet hands. The continued
use of a damaged product or part may cause injuries or fire.
• Take the product to a Minolta Service Facility when repairs are required.
