WATER-RESISTANT
Water-Resistant Structure
Your camera/recorder uses three packings as shown below to provide a
water-resistant structure.
Case
To Check the Packing
1. Open the case so the end of the bracket is positioned as shown in the
figure and pull the bracket forward to release it.
2. After checking, replace the bracket to its original position.
CAUTION
How to Handle the Water-resistant Packings
Inspect the water-resistant packings constantly to check that there are no
scratches or chipping as they could cause water to enter.
Check that no foreign matter adheres to the water-resistant packings before
closing the cases. If the camera/recorder is used while dust, sand, or thread
adheres to only one point if the packings, it could cause water to enter.
Consult your nearest dealer to replace the packings.
The Camera/Recorder cannot be used in the following places
Under water
In a place with high temperature and high humidity such as in a sauna,
bathroom, etc.
Where water would strike it violently (where water pressure is applied)
Note: The camera/recorder cannot be used under water because it is not
water-proof.
Be Careful when Opening and Closing the Sections with Packing
The camera/recorder inside the case is not structured to be water-resistant.
Take great care that no water droplets enter inside.
Check that the three sections with packing are closed tightly to ensure that
it is water-resistant.
