Beforediving, always perform the following advance test and the water
leakagetestafterinstallationofthecamera.
AdvanceTest
１．Before installing the digital camera in the Case, immerse the empty
Casetotheintendedwaterdepthtoconfirmthatthereisnowater

２．Maincausesofwaterleakageareasfollows.
・TheO-ringhasnotbeeninstalled.
・Apart oftheO-ringorthe entireO-ring isoutsidethespecified
groove.
・O-ringdamage,cracks,deteriorationordeformation
・Sand,fibers,hairorotherforeignmatterstickingtotheO-ring,theO-
ringgrooveortheO-ringcontactsurfaceonthefrontlid
・Damage to the O-ring groove or the O-ring contact surface on the
frontlid
・Whenclosing the Case, check for catching of the hand strap and
silicagelaftertheabovecauseshavebeeneliminated.
：・Themostsuitablemethodforcheckingwaterleakageisto
immersetheCase totheintended waterdepth.Whenthis
isdifficult,waterleakagealsocanbecheckedatashallow
depthwithnowaterpressure.Donotfeelthatthisis
