SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Improper transportation handling or use of this housing might cause a flooding or malfunction.

Please read and follow the following precautions:

-Store and transport the housing in a sturdy, shock proof container and avoid travelling with the camera mounted inside the housing as impact forces especially on the external push buttons will be transferred to the camera.

-When travelling by air, either remove the port or open the housing.

-Never change a port or open the housing in a location where sand or similar foreign material might come in contact with an O-ring

-Use of accessories or modifications and alterations unauthorized by the manufacturer may result in flooding or poor functioning of the controls

-Be careful when opening the housing as the pressure build up inside the housing will exaggerate the force of the latch spring. Keep fingers away from the path

of the latches.

-Whenever changing ports or O-rings, perform a simple seal test with out the camera inside.

-Avoid scratching the acrylic ports and windows.

-Make sure that all ports remain properly attached before rinsing the housing. Especially when rinsing without a strobe make sure the Bulkhead connector is sealed with its plug.

-Never attempt to operate the camera in auto focus mode with the lens mounted focus gear engaged with the housing gear.

-Remove the main O-ring seals and clean after every use. Read and follow the Care and Maintenance instructions on this manual.

-Ensure that the spring loaded secondary lock is properly engaged to prevent the accidental opening of latches.
