Drying The Flash; Perform Maintenance On The O-Ring; Replace Consumable Products - Olympus UFL-2 Manual De Instrucciones

CAUTION
• Leakage may occur to some parts if exposed to high water pressure.
• Operate the switches of the flash when it is in clean tap water to remove
any salt from their shafts. Do not disassemble the flash for cleaning.
• If the flash is dried before all salt has been removed, this could affect its
performance. Always make sure all salt has been removed.

Drying the flash

EN
After washing the flash, dry it with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Then, leave
it to dry completely in a well-ventilated location protected from direct
sunlight.
CAUTION
• Never use hot air from a hair dryer or other appliance to dry the flash. This
could deteriorate or deform the flash and O-ring and lead to water
penetration.
• When wiping the flash, take care not to scratch it.

Perform maintenance on the O-ring

Always carry out maintenance on the O-ring after use, to maintain
optimum waterproofing performance.
See "2. Maintaining the Waterproof Function" (gP.15)

Replace consumable products

• The O-ring is a consumable product. Independent of the number of
times the flash is used, it is recommended that the O-ring should be
replaced by a new one at least once a year.
• Deterioration of the O-ring is accelerated by the conditions of use and
the storage conditions. Replace the O-ring even before a year has
passed if it shows signs of damage, cracking or loss of elasticity.
Note :
Please use original Olympus silicone O-ring grease and the O-rings. These
products can be purchased at an Olympus service station.
