4.Replace O-ring every year to ensure proper seal. Only use approved SeaLife O-ring (item #SL15017) designed for the DC800. Replacement O-rings are available at your local authorized SeaLife dealer.

5.After each use underwater:

a.Soak sealed housing in fresh water for about 15 minutes. Most dive boats offer special fresh water buckets specifically for underwater photo equipment. DO NOT put camera housing in fresh water designed for other dive equipment, like dive mask, because that water may contain detergents which are harmful to the housing.

b.Push all the control buttons several times while waterproof housing is soaking to clean out any salt water, sand or dirt that has accumulated during usage.

c.Use clean, soft cloth to dry housing. Store camera and housing only after careful cleaning and when totally dry.

Quick waterproof test

(before you depart on your dive trip)

Place the sealed housing without camera inside in a tub of cold water for about one hour. Place a soft weight on top of the housing to keep it submerged. Carefully dry housing before opening it to inspect for a leaks. If the housing leaks, carefully inspect O-ring or replace O-ring as described above. Repeat the above test. If housing still leaks contact your local authorized SeaLife Dealer for repair service.
