Checking Controls	Diffuser & Deflector Installation
Once the housing has been closed, make sure the housing
controls line up with the camera's controls. If the housing
controls are misaligned slightly make sure the camera hold
down bolt has been tightened down firmly so the camera
is flat against the tray.
Turn Camera On
Turn the camera on and operate each of the housing controls
to get a feel for using the camera in the housing. Take a few
pictures above water with the camera in the housing.

Diffuser

Diffuser and Deflector cont. A diffuser and deflector are included with the housing. The diffuser is white transparent plastic. The deflector is also white but is not transparent and has a decal on the front. To install the diffuser or deflector spread the port clamp at the spring end and slide over the lens port. The

white plastic should be placed in front of the camera flash.

The port clamp should be pushed back against the front of the housing.

Diffuser

The diffuser should be installed when using the camera's built in flash. When shooting with the camera's built-in flash at approximately 2 feet (0.6 m) or less, the lens port on the housing may block a portion of the light from the camera's built-in flash, creating a shadow in the lower left of the photo. If this occurs, zoom the lens slightly to eliminate the shadow. (You can test this above water)

Deflector

The deflector should be installed when using an external strobe such as the DS51 or DS125 Substrobe and EV Controller. The deflector will redirect the camera's flash to the EV Controller which controls the external strobes output.

Lubricants

1. Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing. We recommend you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite productsas someother brands may cause the o'ring toswell and not sealproperly.

2. Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts and o'rings. Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth. Lubricant is not a sealant, it is used to reduce friction. Excessive lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may interfere with proper sealing.

CAUTION

Never use spray lubricants as the propellant ingredient can cause the plastic housing to crack.

Optional Accessories

Back O'ring #0110

O'rings last for several years if properly maintained. (See maintenance) Always carry a spare.

UR/Pro Filter #6441.41

The UR/Pro underwater color correcting filter is designed to restore some of the warm colors filtered out by the water. For available light use only, not recommended for use with flash.

Use the EV Controller with a DS Substrobe

The EV Controller provides 10 manual power settings in 1/2 stop increments for the DS51or DS125 Substrobes. The EV Controller has a built-in slave which can be triggered by the camera's built-in flash.
