Precautions on Use (continued)
Notes on the Waterproof Gasket
• Check that there are no scratches or cracks on the waterproof gasket as
they may allow water to leak in. If there are scratches or cracks, replace
the damaged waterproof gasket with a new one.
Do not remove the waterproof gasket with a metal tool or a tool with a
sharp point.
• After checking that there are no cracks or dust on the waterproof gasket,
coat it slightly with the supplied grease using your finger. This will
prevent wearing.
While applying the grease, recheck for cracks or dust.
Never use cloth or paper for greasing as the fibers may cling.
Do not use any type of grease other than that supplied, as it may damage
the waterproof gasket.
• Put the waterproof gasket in the grooves evenly, with the tapering side
up. Never twist it.
• The useful life of the waterproof gasket depends upon the maintenance
and the frequency of use, but we recommend changing it once a year. To
replace the waterproof gasket, please consult the nearest Sony dealer. Be
sure to check the water leakage after replacing the waterproof gasket.
