PREVENTED BY OBSERVING THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS
Before using the WP-CP1 in or near water, test for leaks as described on pages 6–7
and 12 of this manual.
• Before sealing the case, examine the O-ring, watertight channel, and any parts of
the case that are in contact with the O-ring carefully to ensure that they are free of
dirt, hair, lint, dust, sand, and other foreign objects. Make sure that the O-ring is not
twisted or out of position.
• The O-ring requires periodic replacement. Replace the O-ring immediately if it is dam-
aged, cracked, warped, or has lost elasticity. O-rings should be replaced at least once
a year; do not use a worn O-ring or a type of O-ring or O-ring grease not designated
for use in this product. Do not use NIKONOS O-ring lubricant (grease).
• Be careful not to damage the O-ring when removing it from the case. Do not use
metal objects or objects with sharp points when removing the O-ring.
• To prevent wear, use only COOLPIX O-ring grease designated for use with this prod-
uct. Do not use NIKONOS O-ring lubricant (grease) or other types of O-ring grease.
• To not open the waterproof case in areas exposed to spray, high winds, dust, or
sand.
• Do not drop the case, place under heavy objects, or subject to excessive force. Failure
to observe this precaution could cause the case to warp, resulting in leakage.
• In the event of leakage, stop use immediately, dry the camera and the interior of the
case, and take the camera and case to a Nikon-authorized service representative.
Shock and Vibration
The waterproof case is not designed to protect the camera from blows or vibration. Do
not drop the case, strike it against hard objects, throw it into the water, jump into the
water holding the case, or leave the case in an area subject to extreme vibration. Failure
to observe these precautions could result in damage to the camera.
Maximum Depth
The WP-CP1 is waterproof to 40 m (130´). At greater depths, the case could leak,
break, or change shape, resulting in damage to the camera.
