≥In the case of water leakage due to insufficient care, Matsushita is in no way liable

for damage to any products (digital camera, batteries, card etc.) inside this Case,

photography costs or any other expenses.

≥Matsushita also offers no compensation for accidents resulting in injury or damage

to property.

≥Read the operating instructions for your digital camera.

≥Before attaching the digital camera, submerge the case in water for about

3 minutes or more to check that there is no water leakage.

∫About handling this Case

≥Use under the following conditions.

• Water depth: Up to 40 m

• Ambient temperature: 0 °C

40 °C

≥Do not use the Case in water over 40 °C. The heat may damage the Case or cause

water leakage.

≥The Case is made of impact resistant polycarbonate however be careful when you

are using it. It can be easily scratched when taking pictures in rocky places etc. and

can be damaged by the impact if dropped etc. When travelling, pack the Case

carefully to prevent any direct impact if it is dropped etc. and do not leave the digital

camera in the Case. Only attach the digital camera to the case if you are

transporting it a short distance such as from the airport to the diving spot. (You

cannot reuse the material the Case was packed in at the time of purchase to

transport it.)

≥When boarding a plane, the change in atmospheric pressure may cause the inside

of the Case to expand causing damage to the Case. Remove the O-ring before

boarding a plane.

≥Do not leave the digital camera in the Case for a long period of time in a car, a

ship, exposed to direct sunlight etc. The Case is an airtight device so the

temperature inside the Case will become very high and the digital camera may

stop operating properly. Do not let the temperature inside the Case become

too high.

Before Use (continued)

∫Using the Case in high or low temperatures

≥If you open or close the Case where it is humid or hot and then move to a place that

is cold or dive underwater, condensation may appear inside the Case, the glass

surface may become cloudy and the digital camera may be damaged.

≥If you suddenly move the Case from a cold place or cold water to a warm place, the

glass surface may become cloudy. Wait until the Case becomes close to the air

temperature before taking pictures.

What is the O-ring?

≥The O-ring is a waterproofing packing used for underwater cameras, watches and

diving equipment.

≥The O-ring keeps the Case waterproof by sealing the gap between the rear case

and the front case.

∫How the O-ring keeps the Case waterproof

The gum comes into contact with the sides of the Case making the

Case waterproof and stopping water from entering from the gap.

When the O-ring is crushed by water pressure, the surface of

the O-ring expands and the Case is sealed more tightly.

The O-ring prevents water leakage by coming into uniform

contact with the sides of the Case. Therefore, good care of the

O-ring is very important. Incorrect care of the O-ring may

cause water leakage.
