This camera is provided with a waterproof/dustproof design complying with
JIS waterproof grade 8 and JIS dustproof grade 6 (equivalent to IP68).
To enhance the waterproof performance of the camera, the front of the lens
is protected by glass. As any dirt or water on the glass will affect the quality
of pictures taken, the glass should be kept clean at all times.
Leaving the camera on the sand at the beach may cause the camera to
exceed its operating temperature or cause the speaker or microphone to
become blocked with sand.
The camera will sink if dropped in water, so be sure to attach the strap and
slip the strap over your wrist when using the camera in or near water.
Be sure to check that the battery/card/terminal cover is securely locked
before using the camera in an environment where it is likely to get wet or
dirty, such as underwater or at the beach. Water, sand or dirt inside the
camera may cause failure of the camera. Wipe off any water or dirt with a
dry cloth as soon as possible after using the camera.
Avoid opening the battery/card/terminal cover at the beach or by the sea.
Wait until the camera is completely dry before changing the battery or the
SD Memory Card. Avoid changing the battery or card where the camera is
likely to get wet or dirty, and make sure that your hands are dry.
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/terminal cover is 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, and
alcohol as this may compromise the waterproof performance of the
camera.
