6 Inspect the O-ring one last time.: Panasonic DMWMCFT5E

6 Inspect the O-ring one last time.

Check the following one more time:

There is no dirt sticking to the O-ring.

The O-ring has not come out.

The O-ring is not twisted.

There are no scratches or squashed parts on the O-ring.

Thoroughly wipe any grease off your hands with a dry cloth.

Afterwards wash thoroughly with fresh water.

7 Close the buckle.

Check that no foreign materials are sticking to the outer surface of the O-

ring or the buckle on the front case and then close the Case.

Notes

To keep the Case completely airtight, do not scratch the surface of the O-ring that

comes into contact with the sides of the Case.

Never use an O-ring that has been scratched or damaged by dirt etc. This will

cause water leakage.

Each time you use the Case, remove the O-ring and check that there is no dirt,

sand, hair or other foreign materials in the O-ring groove and then apply a thin coat

of grease (supplied). If you apply too much grease, dirt and the dust may stick to

the O-ring causing water leakage.

Be sure to bring a spare O-ring in case the O-ring that you are using becomes

damaged or scratched.

Checking the Case is Waterproof

After setting the O-ring, check that no water leaks into the Case by

submerging it in a water tank, bath tub etc. for about 3 minutes before

attaching a digital camera.

Do not use the Case in water over 40 °C/104 °F. The heat may damage the Case

or cause water leakage.

Carry out the same test after attaching the digital camera to the Case. (P15)

Notes

If bubbles rise from the Case when it is submerged in water or there is water inside

the Case when you take it out of the water, there is water leakage. In these cases,

consult your dealer.

If water leaks into the Case while you are using it and the digital camera is

submerged in water, remove the battery immediately. Hydrogen gas can cause

burning or explosion if there is a fire nearby.

If you dive quickly while holding the Case or throw the Case from a ship into the

sea, some water leakage may occur because of high pressure. This is not a

malfunction of the Case. Always dive slowly into the water.

The Case is designed to be used at a depth of up to 45 m/148 feet. If you dive

deeper than 45 m/148 feet, part of the Case may be damaged beyond repair.

When closing the Case, be careful that no foreign materials get caught between

the O-ring and the O-ring groove. Even one strand of hair or one grain of sand can

cause water leakage.
