Travelling by Air
If possible, include the waterproof case in your carry-on baggage when travelling by
air. When packing the waterproof case with checked luggage, leave the waterproof
case open. If the waterproof case is sealed, changes in air pressure may damage the
waterproof case or prevent the waterproof case from opening.
High Altitudes
When travelling from high to low altitudes, open the waterproof case periodically to
equalize the pressure. If the waterproof case is kept sealed, changes in air pressure
may damage the case or prevent it from opening.
After Use
Clean the waterproof case as soon as possible after use. Without opening the
waterproof case or removing the camera, wash the waterproof case in a basin of
fresh water. Dry the exterior of the waterproof case thoroughly with a soft, dry
cloth.
Remove the camera and wipe the interior of the waterproof case with a soft, dry
cloth. Do not wash the interior of the waterproof case with water.
Reseal the case and leave it in a basin of fresh water for two to three hours. Operate
each of the buttons a few times to remove salt. If salt dries on the buttons, they
may cease to function or their metal parts may rust, causing the waterproof case to
leak.
Dry the waterproof case thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use a cloth to
which salt has adhered. Leave the waterproof case out to dry in a shady, well-
ventilated area. Do not use a hair dryer or other heat source or place the case in
direct sunlight. Heat could cause the waterproof case or waterproofing packing to
deteriorate, resulting in leakage.
Storage
Leave the waterproof case open. When leaving the waterproof case unused for an
extended period, place it in a clean plastic bag to protect the waterproofing
packing from dust.
Store the waterproof case in a cool, well-ventilated area. Do not store the
waterproof case in direct sunlight or where it will be exposed to sudden changes in
temperature or high levels of humidity. Do not store the waterproof case or
waterproofing packing with naphtha or camphor moth balls.
