• Do not open the battery cover if the camera is wet. Wipe off any water with a
clean lint-free cloth.
• The inside surface of the cover may get wet when it is opened. Wipe off any
water that is on the cover.
• Wiping off the camera while there is sand or dust on it may scratch the surface
of the camera. Make sure that the battery cover is 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 seal or the contact surface. The
camera’s waterproof performance may be compromised by a loose seal, or
cracks or dents on the seal or the contact surface. If there is any such damage,
contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.
• If the camera becomes very dirty or after it has been used in the sea, make sure
that it is turned off and the battery 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, 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 seal once a year. Contact your nearest PENTAX
Service Center regarding changing the seal. (A charge will be made.)
• The camera’s accessories are not waterproof.
