Caution On Handling - Sony MPK-DVF5 Mode D'emploi

Caution on handling

After using
The metal parts will rust and the movement of the operation switches will be impaired if you leave
salt water on the marine pack. If sea water enters through scratches in the coating, the salt can
corrode the metal parts of the marine pack unit and cause the coating to peel off. After recording in
the sea, submerge the marine pack in tap water or fresh water for about 30 minutes before undoing
the latches to completely remove any salt from the marine pack unit, filter, and wide-conversion
lens.
After washing, wipe any water from the inside of the marine pack and the loaded video camcorder
with a soft dry cloth.
* Always follow the above precautions when you use the marine pack.
When you open the marine pack or exchange the battery of the grip, take care that no water drips
from your wet suit or hair.
Do not leave the marine pack under direct sunlight or in a humid place for a long period of time.
Moisture condensation or a high temperature build-up inside the marine pack may occur and
damage the camcorder. If you cannot avoid leaving the marine pack under direct sunlight, be sure to
cover the marine pack with a towel or other protection.
When you store the marine pack
• Coat the O-ring slightly with the supplied grease, and put it in the groove correctly.
Join the front and rear shells then put it in a cool and dry place without fastening the latches.
• Avoid storing the marine pack in a very hot, cold, or humid place, or together with naphthalene
or camphor, as these conditions might damage the unit.
On transportation
When transporting the marine pack, be sure to remove your camcorder from it. Otherwise this
might damage the unit.
Note
When you use the supplied carrying bag,
attach the supplied carrying belt and adjust
the length of the belt.
Avoid rough handling or a shock. We
recommend covering the marine pack with a
towel or other protection.
