Before Use
≥This Marine Case is designed for a Panasonic Digital Camera.
You can enjoy taking pictures underwater at depths up to 40 m/130 feet.
≥In the case of water leakage due to insufficient care, Panasonic is in no
way liable for damage to any products (digital camera, batteries, card etc.)
inside this Case, photography costs or any other expenses.
≥Panasonic also offers no compensation for accidents resulting in injury or
damage to property.
≥Read the operating instructions for your digital camera.
≥Before attaching the digital camera, submerge the case in water for
about 3 minutes or more to check that there is no water leakage.
∫About handling this Case
≥Use under the following conditions.
• Water depth: Up to 40 m/130 feet
• Ambient temperature: 0 °C
to
40 °C/32 °F
to
104 °F
≥Do not use the Case in water over 40 °C/104 °F. The heat may damage the Case or
cause water leakage.
≥The Case is made of impact resistant polycarbonate however be careful when you
are using it. It can be easily scratched when taking pictures in rocky places etc. and
can be damaged by the impact if dropped etc. When travelling, pack the Case
carefully to prevent any direct impact if it is dropped etc. and do not leave the digital
camera in the Case. Only attach the digital camera to the case if you are
transporting it a short distance such as from the airport to the diving spot. (You
cannot reuse the material the Case was packed in at the time of purchase to
transport it.)
≥When boarding a plane, the change in atmospheric pressure may cause the inside
of the Case to expand causing damage to the Case. Remove the O-ring before
boarding a plane.
Insert the removed O-ring into the supplied exclusive polyester bag.
≥Do not leave the digital camera in the Case for a long period of time in a car, a
ship, exposed to direct sunlight etc. The Case is an airtight device so the
temperature inside the Case will become very high and the digital camera may
stop operating properly. Do not let the temperature inside the Case become
too high.

Before Use (continued)
∫Using the Case in high or low temperatures
≥If you open or close the Case where it is humid or hot and then move to a place that
is cold or dive underwater, condensation may appear inside the Case, the glass
surface may become cloudy and the digital camera may be damaged.
≥If you suddenly move the Case from a cold place or cold water to a warm place, the
glass surface may become cloudy. Wait until the Case becomes close to the air
temperature before taking pictures.
∫About preparation
≥Do not open or close the Case where it may be splashed by water or sand may
get in it. We recommend opening or closing the Case indoors.
≥Replace the battery, card etc. and attach the digital camera indoors where there is
little moisture.
≥If you must open or close the Case at the diving spot to replace the battery or
the card, be sure to follow the steps below.
• Select a place where the Case will not be splashed by water and sand will not get
in it.
• Blow off any drops of water in the gap between the rear case and the front case
and on the buckle. Thoroughly wipe off any remaining drops of water with a dry
cloth.
• Thoroughly wipe off any drops of water on your body or hair.
• Be particularly careful about any water coming from the sleeves of your thermal
suit.
• Do not touch the digital camera if your hands are wet from sea water. Wet a towel
with fresh water and place it in a polyester bag beforehand. Use this towel to wipe
off any drops of water or sand on your hands or body.
≥This Case does not absorb shock. If you place a heavy object on the Case or cause
shock to it, the digital camera may be damaged. Be careful when you are using the
case.

≥Do not leave the Case where the temperature is high.
• The temperature inside the Case becomes very high particularly when it is
exposed to direct sunlight on a beach, a ship etc. or when it is left in an airtight car
in the summer. The heat may damage the Case or its inner parts.
• If a digital camera is attached to the Case, it may also be damaged.
• If you use the attached digital camera when the temperature inside the Case is
very high, it may cause leakage, short-circuiting or insulation failure resulting in
fire or malfunction.
≥Do not handle the digital camera or the battery with wet hands.
• This may cause an electric shock or malfunction.
∫When taking pictures with the flash
≥When taking pictures with the flash, the corners of the picture may be vignetted or

What is the O-ring?
≥The O-ring is a waterproofing packing used for underwater cameras, watches and
diving equipment.
≥The O-ring keeps the Case waterproof by sealing the gap between the rear case
and the front case.
∫How the O-ring keeps the Case waterproof
The gum comes into contact with the sides of the Case making the
Case waterproof and stopping water from entering from the gap.
When water pressure acts on the O-ring, the surface of the O-ring
expands and the Case is sealed more tightly.
The O-ring prevents water leakage by coming into uniform
contact with the sides of the Case. Therefore, good care of the
O-ring is very important. Incorrect care of the O-ring may
cause water leakage.

1Loosen the O-ring with your fingers to remove it.
≥Loosen part of the O-ring with the tips of two fingers and then lift the loosened
