Drying The Flash; Perform Maintenance On The O-Ring; Replace Consumable Products - Olympus UFL-1 Bedienungsanleitung

Drying the flash

After washing the flash, dry it with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Then, leave
it to dry completely in a well-ventilated location protected from direct
sunlight.
CAUTION
• Never use hot air from a hair dryer or other appliance to dry the flash. This
could deteriorate or deform the flash and O-ring and lead to water
penetration.
• When wiping the flash, take care not to scratch it.

Perform maintenance on the O-ring

Always carry out maintenance on the O-ring after use, to maintain
optimum waterproofing performance.
See "2. Maintaining the Waterproof Function" (P.14)

Replace consumable products

• The O-ring is a consumable product. Independent of the number of
times the flash is used, it is recommended that the O-ring should be
replaced by a new one at least once a year.
• Deterioration of the O-ring is accelerated by the conditions of use 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.
Note :
Please use original Olympus silicone O-ring grease and the O-rings. These
products can be purchased at an Olympus service station.
