Notes on Battery Usage
When you use the battery, carefully read and strictly observe the Safety
Instructions and the notes described below:
Use only the specified battery (3.7V) provided with the camera.
Extremely cold environments can shorten the battery life and reduce camera
performance.
When you are using a new rechargeable battery or a rechargeable battery
that has not been used for an extended period of time, it may affect
the number of images that can be captured. Therefore, to maximize its
performance and lifetime, we recommend that you fully charge the battery
and discharge it for at least one complete cycle before use.
The battery may feel warm after a long period of continuous use of the
camera or the flash. This is normal and not a malfunction.

Important Notes on Waterproof Function and Waterproof Housing
Read and understand the instructions contained in this manual before
using underwater.
The inner camera is not waterproof or shock protected. Seal the camera
inside the waterproof housing in areas of water, rain, snow, high humidity,
sand, dirt or combustible gas*.
* Warning - the camera inside the waterproof housing IS NOT certified
to be intrinsically safe. Using the camera in an environment containing
combustible gases may result in explosion or fire.
Make sure the rubber dust cover provided is completely inserted into the
camera’s USB and Power ports unless charging the camera’s battery or
connecting the camera to the computer.
Follow these important O-ring care instructions or the waterproof housing
may leak.
* Do not lubricate o-ring.
* Inspect and clean O-ring and O-ring contact su rfaces for sand, hair and
other debris before every use. Clean O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces
with cleaning brush provided.
* Inspect O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces for damage (cuts, scratches,
tears, cracks, dents and any other imperfections.) Replace O-ring or have
waterproof housing serviced if the O-ring or O-ring contact surfaces become
damaged.
* Do not use underwater housing if O-ring or O-ring contact surfaces are
damaged.
* Make sure O-ring is completely seated into O-ring groove before sealing
housing.
* Make sure the O-ring is not twisted when seated in the O-ring groove.
* Carefully follow O-ring removal and installation instructions contained in
this manual.
* Replace O-ring every year to ensure proper seal. Only use approved SeaLife
O-ring designed for the DC1000. Replacement O-rings are available at your
local authorized SeaLife dealer.
Carefully close lid and latch to seal housing and make sure there are no
obstructions that prevent housing from closing or sealing properly.
Notes on Waterproof Function >>

Soak and rinse waterproof housing in fresh water for about 2 minutes after
underwater use or if the housing becomes dirty.
* Push each button several times to clean out any saltwater, sand or dirt that
may be trapped under the buttons.
* Use clean,soft cloth to dry housing.
* Store camera and housing only after careful cleaning and when totally
dry.
Do not let any moisture or dirt get inside housing when opening. This may
result in damage to the inner camera.
Make sure that you and the waterproof housing are completely dry before
opening the waterproof door or changing the batteries or the SD memory
card.
Avoid opening housing wet, sandy or humid environments. It is
recommended to open and load the housing in dry cool air, such as inside
an air conditioned room. This will prevent water or humidity from being
trapped inside the housing, which may cause fogging to occur or damage
the inner camera.
Avoid getting sunscreen or suntan oil on the camera as it may cause
discoloration of the surface. If any oil gets on the camera, wash it off
immediately with warm water.
The waterproof function does not apply to the camera’s accessories.
Do not exceed the depth rating of 60m (200ft.) or the housing may become
damage and leak.
The camera will sink if dropped in water, so be sure to attach the strap
to your wrist or buoyancy control device (B) when using the camera in or
near water.
Store housing at room temperature in a clean and dry place.
Do not expose housing to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
Do not store housing in extreme high temperatures, such as the trunk of
your car.
