Maintenance

Grease the O-ring

If the O-ring is not properly greased, it may crack or peel, causing leaks. If the bottom of the O-ring appears dry, place a drop of O-ring grease on your index finger and spread grease on the O-ring by sliding it between your thumb and index finger, gently stretching the ring. Do not use cloth or paper, as these may leave fibers on the O-ring. Note that applying too much grease may cause foreign matter to adhere more readily to the ring, preventing the case from sealing properly.

Replace the O-ring

Making sure the O-ring and guide are free of foreign objects, place the O-ring so that it runs evenly at the same level all the way round the O- ring guide, without undue stretching and without protruding from the guide.

Check the seal

Close the case and check that the case is fully sealed. If the O-ring does not form a perfect seal, open the case and adjust the O-ring to prevent leaks.

Cleaning

Do not use detergents or volatile chemicals such as alcohol or thinner when cleaning the case. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the case or O- ring.
