Care after underwater use • After using the unit underwater, do not leave it standing Not more than NG 60 minutes for more than 60 minutes without being absolutely sure to immerse it in fresh water. (Otherwise, the unit's waterproof performance may be compromised.) • Wipe off any dirt or water droplets on the unit using a lint-free cloth. • After using the unit at the beach or underwater, move it back and forth in a shallow container of fresh water while opening and closing the LCD monitor to rinse the unit off. Leave the unit immersed for up to 30 minutes, and then wipe it dry using a lint-free cloth. • Even when the unit is rinsed in water, salt particles may still be found on the insides of the flaps. Lift the flap upright, rinse the inside with running tap water, and then wipe the flap dry using a lint-free cloth. • To clean the float, rinse it off in fresh water, and then wipe off the remaining moisture using a dry towel. Do not use bleach. • Do not blow hot air onto the unit using, for instance, a hair drier in order to dry it out. Do not use benzine, thinner, alcohol or other chemicals, soap or kitchen detergents. Doing so may result in deformation or deterioration that may in turn compromise the unit's waterproof performance. • If the unit is splashed or sprayed with detergent, soap, water from a hot spring, bath salts, suntan oil, sun screen lotion or chemicals, wipe off the droplets immediately. • After rinsing off the unit, leave it to dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated, shady location with its water drain holes facing down. If the inside of the unit is not dry, water may emerge from the water drain holes. Microphone and speaker • If water droplets have formed on the microphone and speaker, the volume of the sound may be reduced or the sound itself may become distorted. Wipe off the droplets and leave the unit to dry thoroughly before using it again. • Do not insert sharp or pointed objects into the holes of the microphone and speaker. (Doing so may damage the water-proofing sheet inside and compromise the unit's waterproof performance.) Inspecting the unit's waterproof performance In order to maintain the unit's waterproof performance, it is recommended that this performance be checked about once every 3 years after the unit is purchased. It is also recommended that this performance be checked whenever the unit has been subjected to a strong shock such as when it has been dropped. • When it is time to check the waterproof performance, please consult with a service center representative. • Users will be charged for having the waterproof performance of their units inspected and for having the waterproof packing in their units replaced. 19 VQT2A17

Care after underwater use
After using the unit underwater, do not leave it standing
for more than 60 minutes without being absolutely
sure to immerse it in fresh water. (Otherwise, the unit’s
waterproof performance may be compromised.)
Wipe off any dirt or water droplets on the unit
using a lint-free cloth.
After using the unit at the beach or underwater, move
it back and forth in a shallow container of fresh water
while opening and closing the LCD monitor to rinse
the unit off. Leave the unit immersed for up to 30
minutes, and then wipe it dry using a lint-free cloth.
Even when the unit is rinsed in water, salt particles
may still be found on the insides of the flaps. Lift
the flap upright, rinse the inside with running tap
water, and then wipe the flap dry using a lint-free cloth.
To clean the float, rinse it off in fresh water, and then wipe off the remaining
moisture using a dry towel. Do not use bleach.
Do not blow hot air onto the unit using, for instance, a hair drier in order to
dry it out. Do not use benzine, thinner, alcohol or other chemicals, soap or
kitchen detergents. Doing so may result in deformation or deterioration that
may in turn compromise the unit’s waterproof performance.
If the unit is splashed or sprayed with detergent, soap, water from a hot
spring, bath salts, suntan oil, sun screen lotion or chemicals, wipe off the
droplets immediately.
After rinsing off the unit, leave it to dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated, shady
location with its water drain holes facing down. If the inside of the unit is not
dry, water may emerge from the water drain holes.
Microphone and speaker
If water droplets have formed on the microphone and speaker, the volume of
the sound may be reduced or the sound itself may become distorted. Wipe
off the droplets and leave the unit to dry thoroughly before using it again.
Do not insert sharp or pointed objects into the holes of the microphone
and speaker. (Doing so may damage the water-proofing sheet inside and
compromise the unit’s waterproof performance.)
Inspecting the unit's waterproof performance
In order to maintain the unit's waterproof performance, it is recommended that this
performance be checked about once every 3 years after the unit is purchased.
It is also recommended that this performance be checked whenever the unit
has been subjected to a strong shock such as when it has been dropped.
When it is time to check the waterproof performance, please consult with a
service center representative.
Users will be charged for having the waterproof performance of their units
inspected and for having the waterproof packing in their units replaced.
