Storage

Store the case in a cool, well-ventilated area, leaving the case open to prevent the O-ring from deteriorating. When leaving the case unused for an extended period, remove the O-ring, wipe off any O-ring grease, and place the O-ring in a clean plastic bag to ensure that it maintains it elasticity. Do not store the case in direct sunlight or where it will be exposed to sudden changes in temperature or high levels of humidity. Do not store the case or O-ring under other objects, close to open flames, in the vicinity of flammable items, or with naptha or camphor moth balls.
