Install the O-ring

Confirm that no foreign matter is adhered, apply a thin coat of the grease

provided to the O-ring, and fit the O-ring into the groove. At this point,

confirm that the O-ring does not stick out from the groove.

• When sealing this product, make sure that no hairs, fibers, sand

particles or other foreign matter stick not only to the O-ring, but also to

the contact surface (front cover). Even a single hair or a single grain of

sand may cause water leakage. Please check with special care.

Examples of foreign matter sticking to the O-ring

Hair

• The O-ring is a consumable part. Regardless of the number of times the

Case is used, it is recommended that the O-ring be replaced with a new

one at least once a year.

• Deterioration of the O-ring is accelerated by the use conditions and the

storage conditions. Replace the O-ring even before a year has passed

if it shows signs of damage, crack or loss of elasticity.

Note:

• Please use genuine Olympus silicone grease, silica gel and O-ring.

• Do not try to replace the O-ring by yourself.

• We recommend to perform the check periodically.
