Q4 : What cautions must be observed when opening and closing the

(1) Do not open and close the Case at locations with water spray
or sand spray.
(2) Wipe off all waterdrops from the gap between the front lid and
the rear lid and around projections and recesses such as the

salt on it to wipe off any moisture and dry the Case in the shade.
