TRAVELING

Please protect the housing during transportation by wrapping it in foam or other protective wrapping.

ACCIDENTS

The impact resistance of the housing is excellent. However after an accident the alignment of the housing may have been damaged. Therefore in the event of your housing suffering an impact force, e.g. being dropped, it is essential you do not use the housing for diving. Please return the housing immediately for service. Please put a note inside to indicate the nature of the accident, so that we can assess the course of action to take to renovate the housing.

Always take the first dive without your flash in the housing just to make sure there is no leakage from damage to the housing. During the dive—especially at the beginning

seal, you will discover it in the first seconds of the dive.
