- Lens and LCD Screen: Brug en blød, fnugfri klud, der er specielt designet til optiske overflader. Undgå skrappe kemikalier.
- Vandtætte forseglinger: Regularly inspect the rubber seals on the battery/card compartment and port covers for dirt, sand, or damage. Clean with a soft brush and ensure they are free of debris before closing.
4.2. After Underwater Use
After using the camera in water, especially saltwater, rinse it thoroughly with fresh water. Allow the camera to air dry completely before opening any compartments. Do not open compartments while the camera is wet to prevent water ingress.

Opbevar kameraet et køligt og tørt sted væk fra direkte sollys og ekstreme temperaturer. Fjern batteriet, hvis kameraet ikke skal bruges i en længere periode.
5. Fejlfinding
- Kameraet tænder ikke: Sørg for, at batteriet er fuldt opladet og korrekt isat.
- Billederne er slørede: Check focus settings. Ensure the lens is clean. Use image stabilization if available.
- Water inside the camera: Immediately power off the camera, remove the battery and memory card. Contact customer support. This indicates a failure of the waterproof seals.
- Poor performance in low light: The camera may struggle in very low light conditions. Use the built-in flash or adjust ISO settings if possible.
- Fejl på hukommelseskort: Sørg for, at hukommelseskortet er isat korrekt og ikke er beskadiget. Prøv at formatere kortet (dette vil slette alle data).
