INSERTING THE MICRO SD CARD
Compatible cards: Class 10 MicroSD cards from 8Gb to 64Gb.
USING A WATERPROOF CASE
Anti-fog paper (sold separately)
The waterproof case has been specially designed for your G-EYE camera. It is
waterproof up to 100 meters, and also provides shock protection.
It is designed to be used when performing water sports, diving or playing sports in
damp environments. Using the waterproof case greatly reduces the camera's
sound recording ability.
CAUTION
 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

5
gasket and reinstall in the correct direction.
 In order to limit the presence of fog or condensation in the case caused by
temperature differences between the inside and outside of the case, we
strongly recommend that you place anti-fog paper in the case every time
you use it. This accessory is sold separately in all DECATHLON shops and at
decathlon.com.
