SWAPPING BACKDOORS
You can switch the backdoor of your HERO3+ Silver camera to suit
your activity and shooting conditions.
To Change the Backdoor:
1. Open the backdoor of the housing so that it is hanging downwards.
2. Pull downwards on the backdoor until it snaps free from the hinge.
3. Line up replacement backdoor into the hinge opening.
4. Push upwards on the backdoor until it clicks into place.

PREVENTING WATER DAMAGE TO YOUR CAMERA
The rubber seal that lines the camera housing forms a waterproof barrier
that protects your HERO3+ Silver in wet and underwater conditions.
Keep the camera housing's rubber seal clean—a single hair or grain
of sand can cause a leak and damage your camera.
After every use in salt water, rinse the outside of the camera housing
with non-salt water and dry. Not doing this can eventually cause
corrosion of the hinge pin and salt buildup in the seal, which can
cause failure.
To clean the seal, rinse in fresh water and shake dry (drying with a
cloth may cause lint to compromise the seal). Re-install the seal into
the grooves in the backdoor of the camera housing.
WARNING: Failure to follow these steps each time you use your
GoPro can result in leaks that may damage or destroy your
camera. Water will damage both the camera and the battery.
Your warranty does not cover water damage resulting from
user error.
