Storage and Maintenance Storage and Maintenance
• Do not leave the camera in an environment at high
temperature (40°C (104°F) or more) or at low temperature
(-10°C (14°F) or less). Failure to do so may break down water
resistance.
• Do not use chemicals for cleaning, rust prevention, anti-
fogging, repairing, etc. Failure to do so may break down water
resistance.
• Do not leave the camera in water for a long time.
Prolonged exposure to water will cause damage to the
camera’s appearance and/or deteriorate water resistance.
• In order to preserve the water resistant feature, as with
any underwater housing, it is recommended that the
waterproof packing (and seals) are replaced annually.
For the Olympus distributors or service stations where
the waterproof packing can be replaced, visit Olympus
website for your local area.
The included accessories (e.g. USB-AC adapter) do
not offer shock or water resistance.
