Repeated exposure to pressure eventually leads to material fatigue, which may result in damage of the marine case. Every time you use the marine case, check in advance that there are no scratches or cracks. If you frequently use the marine case, be sure to ask for maintenance at the store of purchase. (There is a charge for maintenance.) To protect your camera and ensure optimum use, keep the examples listed above in mind when using the marine case. JVC accepts no responsibility for water leakage or damage to anything inside the marine case (camera, SD card, etc.) due to careless usage of this product.

If water leaks into the case due to careless use of the marine case, JVC cannot accept responsibility for any damage that may occur to the internal equipment and materials (video camera, SD card, etc.), or any expenses incurred in taking the photographs/video. Therefore, please be careful when using the marine case. Before use, this unit must be pre- tested to check if there is any water leakage. This marine case is a precision instrument designed to permit safe video recording under high water pressure. Please pay careful attention when handling the unit before and after use, as explained in this user’s manual. Each part of the marine case has been subject to strict controls during the manufacturing process, and the individual functions have faced stringent tests during the assembly process. Each marine case has also had to pass waterproof inspections using high-pressure water testers. However, damage can sometimes occur during transport and distribution, or during storage after purchase, so before diving always carry out the following pre-use test to verify safety. Pre-use test Be sure to perform the following pre-use test before diving.

1. Before mounting the camera inside the

marine case, dive with only the empty marine case and test for water leaks. Allow 5 or 6 minutes to ensure there are no leaks. Be sure to perform this test to ensure the safety of your camera.

2. The following are some common causes of

water leaks: Safety Precaution Please read before use A. The marine case is used without attaching the O-ring. B. The O-ring is not mounted in the correct position. C. The O-ring is damaged or deformed. D. There is sand, dirt, hair or other foreign matter on the O-ring. E. There is sand, dirt, hair or other foreign matter on the contact surface of the O-ring or on the inside of the lid. F.

Always perform maintenance on the marine case after you have finished recording. Salt crystal or dirt will accumulate inside the marine case if maintenance is not performed, and this can cause water leakage. z Do this within 30 minutes after diving. z Pour in fresh water until the marine case is completely submerged in the container, and shake the marine case in the upward, downward, left and right directions. z Move the buttons and levers while the marine case is submerged, and rinse the dirt out from any gaps or grooves. Proceed to C z If used in the sea -> Proceed to Aerforming salt removal If the marine case was used in the sea, submerge the marine case in fresh water for at least 1 hour to remove salt.

Prepare a container that contains fresh water that is five times more than the volume of the marine case. z The container must be big enough to allow the marine case to submerge fully. z If only small containers are available, pour in fresh water that is equivalent to at least five times the volume of the marine case over a few times. z Shaking the marine case in the upward, downward, left and right directions will be more effective. z Move the buttons and levers while the marine case is submerged, and rinse the salt out from any gaps or grooves etc. z Make sure the grip is also free of salt.

Put in fresh water for at least 1 hour.

Remove the marine case and wipe off water droplets on the case surface using a dry towel.

Remove the camera. z Face the front glass of the marine case upwards, and open the buckles to remove the camera, while paying attention not to let water droplets at O-ring or buckles enter the case. z The camera may fall out if the buckles are opened with the front glass facing down. z If you cannot avoid opening the marine case at the diving location, pay attention not to let water droplets from your hair or your body enter the case.

Remove the O-ring, and wipe off salt, sand and other foreign matter. z Also wipe the groove in which the O-ring was inserted, and the part of the marine case that was in contact with the O-ring, and allow them to dry. ¹ For details on handling and storing the O-ring, refer to the “O-ring Maintenance Manual”.

Wipe the inside and outside of the marine case with a dry cloth. ¹ Use a lint-free cloth to wipe the inside of the marine case.

Wipe the inner side of the front glass. z Add a few drops of the cleaner liquid (commercially available) onto the inner side of the front glass, and wipe off using a lens tissue paper, clean cloth, etc. Maintenance on the marine case Wash the marine case in water while it is still sealed Performing salt removal Caution Dirt, sand, salt crystals, etc.Hair, lint, etc. WR-MG270_EN.book Page 20 Wednesday, March 24, 2010 1:36 PM21 z The front glass will fog if it is dirty.

Always perform maintenance on the marine case after you have finished recording. Salt crystal or dirt will accumulate inside the marine case if maintenance is not performed, and this can cause water leakage. z Do this within 30 minutes after diving. z Pour in fresh water until the marine case is completely submerged in the container, and shake the marine case in the upward, downward, left and right directions. z Move the buttons and levers while the marine case is submerged, and rinse the dirt out from any gaps or grooves. Proceed to C z If used in the sea -> Proceed to Aerforming salt removal If the marine case was used in the sea, submerge the marine case in fresh water for at least 1 hour to remove salt.

Prepare a container that contains fresh water that is five times more than the volume of the marine case. z The container must be big enough to allow the marine case to submerge fully. z If only small containers are available, pour in fresh water that is equivalent to at least five times the volume of the marine case over a few times. z Shaking the marine case in the upward, downward, left and right directions will be more effective. z Move the buttons and levers while the marine case is submerged, and rinse the salt out from any gaps or grooves etc. z Make sure the grip is also free of salt.
