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. Failure to do so will cause damage
to the camera's appearance and/or deteriorate water resistance.
• In addition do not pour water over the camera directly from the water faucet.
• 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.
