• Do not open the battery/card cover or terminal cover if the camera is wet. Wipe
off any water with a clean lint-free cloth.

of the camera. Make sure that the battery/card cover and terminal cover are
firmly closed before washing the camera in tap water. After washing the
camera, dry it with a soft cloth.
• Wipe off any dirt or sand on the waterproof packing or the packing contact
surface. The camera’s waterproof performance may be compromised by loose
packing or cracks or dents in the packing or packing contact surface. If there is
any such damage, contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.
• If the camera is very dirty or after it has been used in the sea, make sure that it
is turned off and the battery/card and terminal covers are firmly closed before
rinsing it under running tap water or leaving it in a bowl of clean water for a short
time (2 or 3 minutes).
• Avoid cleaning with agents such as soapy water, mild detergents, or alcohol as
this may compromise the waterproof performance of the camera.
• To maintain the waterproof performance of the camera, you are recommended
to change the waterproof packing once a year. Contact your nearest PENTAX
Service Center regarding changing the packing. (A charge will be made.)
