These gaskets protect the interior of
the camera from becoming wet in the
event the camera is splashed with
water. Check these gaskets often and
carefully remove any sand or dust to
maintain this protective seal.
Whenever your camera gets wet, take
the following precautions to maintain
your camera in good working order.
• Clean the entire exterior of the
camera with a dry cloth.
• Open the battery compartment and
remove the battery, leaving the
battery cover open.
• Open the back cover and expose the
film compartment.
• Check the interior to see if it is wet. If
it is, carefully dry it.
• Leave both the battery compartment
and back cover for several hours to
let it air-dry.
