Vérifier l’étanchéité du caisson

Étape 1 Vérifier l’étanchéité du caisson

Important!

Avant de placer l’appareil photo dans le boîtier, assurez-vous que l’appareil photo fonctionne normalement et que le boîtier ne fuit pas. Vous risquez sinon d’endom- mager votre appareil photo de manière irréversible. Nous vous faisons remarquer que les fuites peuvent être causées par des fissures ou une détérioration du boîtier. Vérifiez donc que le boîtier n’est pas fissuré et qu’il n’est pas autrement endom- magé avant de l’utiliser, et consultez un représentant de service agréé par Nikon au cas où vous constateriez des fissures et une détérioration quelconques.

Fermer le caisson

Après avoir vérifié que le joint torique est correc- tement positionné, fermez doucement le caisson, en prenant garde de ne pas vous pincer la peau.

Verrouiller le caisson

￿ En vous assurant que les moitiés avant et arrière du caisson sont en contact mais qu’il n’est pas

￿entièrement fermé (￿), rabattez le volet sur sa moitié avant (￿).

Appuyez sur le caisson jusqu’à ce que le loquet s’encliquette en position. Vérifiez que le caisson est fermé hermétiquement, que le joint torique est positionné correctement et qu’aucun corps étranger ne figure dans la jointure.

Immerger le caisson

Plongez doucement le caisson dans l’eau et arrê- tez-vous si l’eau rentre. Testez le caisson dans une zone peu profonde (1m ou moins), comme une baignoire ou un seau. Ne le plongez pas dans de l’eau chaude car la température pourrait dépasser la plage autorisée : 0–40 °C.
