Sony MPK-THB: Handling the O-ring (continued) Final check How to check for water leakage

Handling the O-ring (continued)

Final check

Check the O-ring again for any dirt, cracks or twisting, etc.

How to check for water leakage

Before installing the equipment, always close the marine pack and

immerse it in water to a depth of about 15 cm for about three minutes to

make sure no water leaks in.

PCAUTION

After taking photos near a sandy sea bottom or placing the camera on the

sand, remove the O-ring and inspect it.

Be sure to take a spare O-ring with you.

You can replace the fitted O-ring on location if

something goes wrong with it.

O-ring life

Replace each O-ring with a new one after one year of use.

Even if the O-ring is not cracked or scratched, deformation or wear

reduces its waterproof qualities.
