Introduction
3. After making sure that there are no water droplets on the camera,
open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, gently wipe off
any water remaining inside the camera with a dry soft cloth, and use
the blower to remove any foreign substances.
• If you open the cover before the camera is thoroughly dried, water
droplets may fall on the memory card or battery.
The water droplets may also seep inside the battery-chamber/memory
card slot cover (in locations such as waterproof packing, hinges, memory
card slot, or terminals).
If that happens, wipe the water off with a dry soft cloth.
• If the cover is closed when the inside is wet, this could cause
condensation or malfunction.
• If the microphone or speaker openings are clogged with water droplets,
the sound may deteriorate or become distorted.
- Wipe the water off with a dry soft cloth.
- Do not puncture the microphone or speaker openings with a sharp
implement. If the inside of the camera is damaged, the waterproof
performance will deteriorate.
