Cleaning After Using the Camera

Use a blower to remove any dust or lint that adheres to the lenses, monitor, or camera body.
To remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, gently wipe
the parts with a soft dry cloth. If you wipe with too much pressure or with a rough cloth, it
may damage the camera or cause a malfunction.

Cleaning After Using the Camera at the Beach or When
It Is Very Dirty

Follow the procedure below to rinse the camera with fresh water within 60 minutes after
using it at the beach or when the camera is very dirty.

1. Keep the memory card slot/connector cover

closed and wash off the camera with fresh water.

Immerse the camera in a shallow basin filled with fresh
water for 10 minutes.

Immerse the camera in fresh water and shake it

sufficiently in the water to remove any foreign
substances from the camera.

When the camera is immersed in the water, a few

air bubbles may come out from the water drain
holes of the camera such as openings in the microphone or speakers. This is not
a malfunction.

2. Wipe off water droplets with a soft cloth and dry the camera in a well-

ventilated and shady place.

Place the camera on a dry cloth to dry it.

Do not dry the camera with hot air from a hair dryer or clothes dryer.

3. After making sure that there are no water droplets on the camera, open

the memory card slot/connector cover and use a soft dry cloth to gently
wipe off any water or sand remaining on the waterproofing packing or
inside the camera.

If the cover is closed when the inside is wet, this could cause condensation or a

malfunction.
