Do not leave the camera in an environment at

high temperature (40°C (104°F) or more) or at

low temperature (-10°C (14°F) or less). Failure

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. Failure to do so 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. 
For the Olympus distributors or service 
stations where the waterproof packing can 
be replaced, visit Olympus website for your
