STICKER PAD
The sticker pads are meant to be used to afx your camera to smooth, hard, rigid surface. 3MTM
stickers provide highly resistant adhesion.
However, the precautions for afxing the pad must be respected.
Î Clean and dry the surface upon which you will be afxing the pad.
Î Make sure that the surface is as smooth as possible.
Î Afx the pad in a dry environment with a moderate temperature, preferably indoors.
Î Let set for 24 hours before use.
NOTE: This pad cannot be used a second time, but it can be cleanly removed by heating with a
hair dryer, for example.
WATERPROOF CASE
This waterproof case was specially designed for the G-EYE 2 Discover camera. It is waterproof
up to 100 meters, and also provides shock protection.
It is meant to be used in the following conditions:
ATTENTION:
Î
In order to guarantee that it is perfectly watertight, it is important that the seal gasket is kept clean.
Dust or grains of sand could be enough to create a leak in the case. You can easily remove the
gasket to rinse it in clean water. Dry the gasket and reinstall in the proper direction.
NOTE:
Î
Vapour may appear in the case without there being a leak. If the temperature and humidity
conditions change between when you close the case and when you begin your activity,
condensation could appear on the inside of the case. This phenomenon could also happen due to
the temperature of the camera itself. To solve this problem, you can insert a small amount of anti-
humidity foam into the case.
