2. Advance Check of the Case

Advance test before use

This Case has been the subject of thorough quality control for the parts during the
manufacturing process and thorough function inspections during the assembly. In addition,
a water pressure test is performed with a water pressure tester for all products to confirm
that the performance conforms to the specifications. However, depending on the carrying
and storage conditions, the maintenance status, etc., the waterproof function may be
damaged.
Before diving, always perform the following advance test and the water leakage test after
installation of the camera.

Check the waterproof parts of the Case

Check the waterproof parts of the Case as described below.
1. Ensure that the Case's O-rings are firmly attached and secured with the buckle.
2. Ensure that the separately available Waterproof Port is installed correctly, and that the
Waterproof Port is attached firmly to the O-ring between the Waterproof Port and
Case.
3. Ensure that the O-ring of the TTL cable connector is attached firmly and that the cap
is screwed into the connector without loosening.

Preliminary test

1. Before loading the digital camera in the Case, immerse the empty Case at depth you
intend to use it and make sure there is no water leakage.
2. Main causes of water leakage are as follows.
• One or more O-rings have not been installed.
• Part of an O-ring or an 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.
• Damage to an O-ring groove or O-ring contact surface.
• When all of the above causes have been eliminated, check the hand strap and silica
gel when closing the Case.
CAUTION
: • 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 troublesome, but perform this test.
• If the advance test should show water leakage with normal handling, stop
using the Case and contact your dealer or an Olympus service station
(listed on the rear page of this instruction manual).
