Ensure that the side door is closed before using the camera in or
around water, dirt, or sand.

in warm tap water for 15 minutes and then rinse thoroughly to
remove the debris before opening the door.
☑ For best audio performance, shake the camera to remove water
and debris from the microphone holes. (Blowing on the mic holes
does not remove water and debris.)
☑ Aer every use in salt water, rinse the camera with fresh water,
and dry with a so cloth.
☑ If the camera lens becomes foggy, let it sit until it dries.
PRO TIP: During water activities, tether your camera for added
security and use a Floaty to keep your camera afloat (sold separately).
