Close the battery/card and terminal covers properly until they click. Otherwise water may get in and damage the camera. Avoid opening the battery/card and terminal covers when near the water, or with wet hands. Wait until the camera is completely dry before changing the battery or the SD memory card. Avoid changing the battery or card where the camera is likely to get wet or dirty, and make sure that your hands are dry. The camera will sink if dropped in water, so be sure to attach the strap and slip it over your wrist when using it in or near water. To enhance the waterproof performance of the camera, the front of the lens is protected by glass. The glass should be kept clean at all times, as any dirt or water on the glass will affect the quality of pictures taken. Precautions when using the camera in water Do not use the camera deeper than 10 metres underwater. Do not use the camera underwater for more than 120 minutes consecutively. Do not open the battery/card and terminal covers underwater.

Do not use in hot water or in a hot spring. Do not apply excessive force to the camera; for example diving into water with it. Doing so may compromise the waterproof performance of the camera or cause the covers to open. Do not leave the camera on the sand at the beach as this may cause it to exceed its operating temperature, or cause the speaker or microphone to become blocked with sand. Avoid subjecting the camera to substantial vibrations, shocks, or pressure as this may cause a loss in waterproof performance. If your camera is subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure, take it to your nearest PENTAX Service Centre tohave it checked. Avoid getting sunscreen or sun tan oil on the camera as it may cause discolouration of the surface. If any oil gets on the camera, wash it off immediately with warm water. Sudden and extreme changes in temperature may cause condensation to form in and on the camera. Keep the camera in a bag or case to reduce temperature differences.

Precautions after using the camera in water Do not open the battery/card cover or terminal cover if the camera is wet. Wipe off any water with a clean lint-free cloth. Do not open the battery/card cover or terminal cover with wet hands.  Please ensure your hands are dry. The inside surface of the covers may get wet when they are opened. Wipe off any water that is on the cover. Wiping off the camera while there is sand or dust on it may scratch the surface.  Make sure that the battery/card cover and terminal cover are firmly closed until they click before washing the camera in tap water. After washing the camera, dry it with a soft cloth. Wipe off any dirt or sand on or around the waterproof seals. The camera's waterproof performance may be compromised by loose seals or cracks or dents in or around the seals.  If there is any such damage, contact your nearest PENTAX Service Centre. If the camera is very dirty, or after it has been used in the sea, make sure that it is turned off and the battery/card and terminal covers are firmly closed until they clock before rinsing it under running tap water. 

Alternatively, it may be left in a bowl of clean water for a short time (2 or 3 minutes). We do recommend that you get the seals of your camera checked on an annual basis.  Please contact your nearest PENTAX Service Centre for details.For a clumsy person whose phone is in hand more frequently than in pocket, I’ve had my fair share of cellular device disasters. This is precisely why two weeks ago, when sink met iPhone and iPhone met death immediately thereafter, I took the news like a seasoned phone battle veteran. What made this event different than my many tales of broken phones past was that this time, I decided I was going to fix it myself. SPOILER ALERT: I failed greatly in this endeavor. However, being on a college campus where interconnectivity and communication are so valued and accidents are so prevalent, I’m going to offer the tale of my failure both as a precautionary tale as well as a guide should any of you decide to tackle the innards of an iPhone yourselves.

Step 1: Assess Damage As I yanked my helpless phone from the sink and saw the screen dim like a fleeting life right before my eyes, the flash lit up like a firework and kept on blazing for the next hour or so as the last reserves of the battery drained. I kept telling myself the water damage wasn’t that extensive, but then I saw the camera lens, filled with more water bubbles than an aquarium. At this point, I hurried back to my apartment as quickly as my choice of footwear would allow, filled a Tupperware container with dry, uncooked rice and buried my phone in it. I later learned from my research that proper protocol calls for using a blow drier on a low setting to disrupt larger pockets of water. I omitted this key step due to my own ignorance, but have made a mental note in case of future disaster. Perusing blog after forum after blog on proper iPhone treatment, I read claims of revival after leaving an iPhone in rice for anywhere from 24 hours to 6 days. I decided to liberate my phone from its rice-grave only after the bubbles visible in my camera lens had evaporated.

As I waited for the intrusive water to vacate its new home in the innards of my cellular device, I prepped for what bloggers across the web told me would be a necessary step: battery replacement. When water damage is to blame for an unresponsive iPhone, the problem is usually the battery, as water will fry that first. Thanks to videos, step-by-step guides and supplies from iFixIt (supplies that arrived at my apartment 4 days before scheduled.. .thank you very much you speedy shippers you) I believed myself perfectly capable of changing the battery. Armed with the following list of tools, I had full faith that this would be a piece of cake: When, on day 4, I checked on the coma-status of my phone and saw that the camera-lense bubbles had evaporated, I knew it was time. Setting up a sterile and clean environment on the coffee table in my living room, I laid out my supplies, went over the iFixIt video and guide one last time, and dug in. I was pleased with how easily the screws from the phone came out;

I was also shocked by how, in the absence of those screws, the back panel slid off so cleanly and easily. The back panel was gone, and there lay the naked basics of my phone: warped battery, corroded connectors and all. Despite the fact that it looked like a lost cause, I changed the battery anyway, closed her up, and plugged her into my computer. Step 4: Analyze Results Shockingly, my computer recognized the phone. iTunes popped up promptly and I immediately hit the backup button in anticipation of failure. When my excitement subsided enough for me to actually look at my phone, my elation deflated like a popped balloon; the screen was black. I jiggled the silence button, was informed by my obnoxious ringer that I was getting a phone call, received an e-mail, and had a few new text deliveries. Advised by a commenter on one of iFixIt’s forums, I turned the phone off expecting that to solve the issue of my black screen. Sadly, it would never turn on again. Step 5: Admit Defeat
