a bad smell or deterioration of waterproof performance.
The cleaning procedure described below is recommended to ensure long-

Before cleaning the camera, thoroughly remove water droplets, sand, salt
particles, or other foreign substances from your hands, body, and hair.
It is recommended to clean the camera indoors to avoid a place where it

Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover until all foreign
substances are washed off with water and all moisture is wiped off.
