Applying grease to the O-ring
Replace consumable products
The O-ring is a consumable product. Independent of the number of times the Case is used, it is
recommended that the O-ring should be replaced by a new piece at least once a year.
Deterioration of the O-ring is accelerated by the usage conditions and the storage conditions. Replace
the O-ring even before a year has passed if it shows signs of damage, cracking or loss of elasticity.
1 Apply only Olympus
exclusive grease to O-ring.
Make sure that your fingers and the O-ring are
free of dirt, and squeeze about 5 mm of grease
onto a finger. (5 mm is the most appropriate
amount.)
2 Spread the grease onto the
entire circumference of the
O-ring.
Spread the grease onto the entire
circumference of the O-ring using 3 fingers.
Be careful not to use excessive force as this
may stretch the O-ring.
3 Check that the O-ring is free
of scratches or unevenness.
After spreading the grease, check visually and
by touch that the O-ring is not scratched and
that its surface is flat. If it is damaged in any
way, replace it with a brand-new O-ring.
CAUTION:
Always perform maintenance of the waterproof function even when the Case has been opened every
shooting. Neglecting this maintenance may become the cause of water leakage.
When the Case is not to be used for a long time, remove the O-ring from the groove to prevent deformation
of the O-ring, apply a thin coat of silicone grease, and store it in a clean plastic bag or the like.
Examples of foreign matter sticking to the O-ring
Hair Fibers Grains of sand
CAUTION:
Use genuine Olympus silicone grease, silica gel and O-ring.
Do not try to replace the O-ring by yourself.
We recommend to perform the check periodically.
