2. Advance Check of the Case

This Case has been the subject of thorough quality control for the

parts during the manufacturing process and thorough function

inspections during the assembly. In addition, a water pressure test

is performed with a water pressure tester for all products to confirm

that the performance conforms to the specifications. However,

depending on the carrying and storage conditions, the maintenance

status, etc., the waterproof function may be damaged.

Before diving, always perform the following advance test and the

water leakage test after installation of the camera.

1. Before installing the digital camera in the Case, immerse the

empty Case to the intended water depth to confirm that there is

no water leakage.

2. Main causes of water leakage are as follows.

The O-ring has not been installed.

A part of the O-ring or the entire O-ring is outside the specified

groove.

O-ring damage, cracks, deterioration or deformation

Sand, fibers, hair or other foreign matter sticking to the O-ring,

the O-ring groove or the O-ring contact surface on the front lid

Damage to the O-ring groove or the O-ring contact surface on

the front lid

When closing the Case, check for catching of the hand strap and

silica gel after the above causes have been eliminated.

CAUTION

: • The most suitable method for checking water leakage

is to immerse the Case to the intended water depth.

When this is difficult, water leakage also can be

checked at a shallow depth with no water pressure. Do

not feel that this is troublesome, but perform this test.

• If the advance test should show water leakage with

normal handling, stop using the Case and contact

your dealer or an Olympus service station (listed on

the rear page of this instruction manual).
