USING THE FANTASEA FA-490/495 HOUSING

Note

It is strongly recommended to take the first dive without the camera inside the housing. You should check that the watertight seal has not been affected during transport and long periods of storage.

OPENING THE HOUSING

1. Release all four latches at the same time, and lift off the back half to open the housing.

INSERTING THE CAMERA

Since the Fantasea FA-490/495is specifically designed for the PowerShot A490 & A495 digital cameras, inserting the camera into the housing is quite simple.

1.Mount the camera on the removable tray, using the mounting tripod screw.

2.Slide the tray and camera into the housing tray slot. Make sure it is completely inserted.

3.Make sure the camera lens is more or less centered in the rounded port area and that the lens does not distort the round black rubber seat. The housing is designed to have the camera fit in place perfectly, but if you are not careful, it is possible to put it in at an improper angle and it will then be impossible to establish a proper seal or easy closure of the housing.
