- Page 4 (Fig. 1) Open Housing Procedure 4.3 Opening levers: After unscrewing and pulling out the pressure release plug, the lid can be opened. To overcome the friction of opening, use lever (Fig. 2) to push against the lid with a cam action. Be sure they are inserted all the way flat to the housing before turning to avoid damaging the protrusions on the lid.
- Page 5 4.4 Special note on responsibility for watertight integrity: Each housing is individually inspected and hydrostatically tested in the factory. The design of the main piston O-ring seal is among the most reliable in the industry and the watertight integrity is excellent. This special O-ring design provides a perfect seal even if there is any movement between the body and lid due to change of ambient pressure.
- Page 6 the outside of the housing is thoroughly toweled dry before opening up. After removing the lid and servicing the camera, replace the lid straight away, rather than leaving it lying around. Before replacing the lid, make sure that no contamination such as dust, hair, salt, sand etc. has fallen onto the O-ring or O-ring recess, as a precaution we recommend to inspect the O- ring every time the lid is opened and to carry out the maintenance if necessary.
- Page 7 4.7 Mounting the camera in the housing: Remove the lens cap and wrist strap. The pressure release plug should be pulled out before inserting the camera. Attach the plastic slide tray to the camera’s tripod mounting fixture with a coin, screwdriver or the end of the universal tool supplied (Fig. 5). Take care not to excessively tighten the screw.
- Page 8 (Fig. 9) (Fig. 11) Replace the lid (Fig. 10). Remember to ensure the pressure release plug is pulled all the way out while closing, otherwise the air cannot escape. Squeeze the lid closed all the way with the hissing of expelled air. Screw home the pressure release plug (Fig. 11). There is no need to excessively tighten this plug.
- Page 9 (Fig. 12) Note: If the O-ring is in good contact, a thin black line, about 0.5 to 1mm in width should be visible, where the O-ring is in contact with the lid. Follow this line all the way round the edge of the seal, as a final check that the seal is good. The housing is now ready for the dive.
- Page 10 5. Use & Care of Housing: 5.1 Pre Dive Function Check. Just before entering the water, make a habit of reviewing that you have carried out the proper steps to close the housing. and the pressure release plug screwed home. Make a visual check of the O-ring seal.
