3. Check that there are no

scratches or cracks on the

marine case every time you use

it.

The marine case must withstand

water pressure with use. Repeated

exposure to pressure eventually

leads to material fatigue, which

may result in damage of the

marine case. Every time you use

the marine case, check in advance

that there are no scratches or

cracks. If you frequently use

the marine case, be sure to ask

for maintenance at the store of

purchase. (There is a charge for

maintenance.)

To protect your camera and ensure

optimum use, keep the examples

listed above in mind when using the

marine case.

JVC accepts no responsibility for

water leakage or damage to anything

inside the marine case (camera, SD

card, etc.) due to careless usage of

this product. Be sure to follow correct

procedures when using the marine

case.
