Cleaning and Storing the Camera For information on the precautions that must be observed when the camera is used underwater, see “Important Information about Water and Shock Resistant Features” (P. 123). Cleaning the camera Turn off the camera and remove the battery before cleaning the camera. • Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or a chemically treated cloth. Exterior: • Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water and wring well.
Storage • When not using the camera for a prolonged period, remove the battery and card. Store the camera in a cool, dry place that is well ventilated. • Insert the battery periodically and test the camera’s functions. • Clean the camera after use. • Do not store with insect repellent. • Avoid storing the camera in places where chemicals are treated, in order to protect the camera from corrosion. • Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty.
Important Information about Water and Shock Resistant Features Water resistance: The waterproof feature is warranted*1 to operate at depths up to 15 m (49.2 feet) for up to one hour. The waterproof feature may be compromised if the camera is subject to substantial or excessive impact. Shock resistance: The anti-shock feature warrants*2 the operation of the camera against accidental impact incurred from everyday use of your digital compact camera.
Storage and maintenance • Do not use chemicals for cleaning, rust prevention, anti-fogging, repairing, etc. Failure to do so may break down water resistance. • Do not leave the camera in water for a long time. Prolonged exposure to water will cause damage to the camera’s appearance and/or deteriorate water resistance. • In order to preserve the water resistant feature, as with any underwater housing, it is recommended that the waterproof packing (and seals) are replaced annually.
Using Separately Sold Accessories Attaching optional silicone jackets Attach the jacket as shown. Reverse the steps to remove the jacket. • Do not use excessive force. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the jacket. Taking pictures with the Olympus Wireless RC Flash System You can take pictures and underwater pictures with a wireless flash when using a flash compatible with the Olympus Wireless RC Flash System.
Optional Accessories Optional accessories can expand your photographic horizons. Before mounting accessories on the camera, remove the supplied lens ring. LED light guide (LG-1) An accessory for k (microscope mode) mode and macro photography that ensures that the macro LED light provides even lighting. • Do not use the flash. • The LG-1 cannot be used underwater.
