Care and maintenance
With basic care and a regular maintenance schedule, your Aquatica housing will
provide years of enjoyment and satisfaction in producing spectacular
underwater images. Please follow all undermentioned care and maintenance
instructions.
Housing components
After every salt water dive, soak and/or rinse your housing system in fresh
water. It should soak for a minimum of 30 minutes. Operate all the controls
several times, while soaking, to dislodge any trapped salt water residues.
Periodically remove the hand grips for storage and transportation to avoid
having the thread of the attachment bolts fuse on to the housing. Unscrew,
clean and lubricate the bolts with a small amount of WD-40 or Zinc-based
lubricant.
WARNING:
Use WD-40 or any lubricant carefully, sparingly and only on
metal to metal surfaces. WD-40 or other petroleum-based
lubricants can damage the acrylic on the ports, the optical
surfaces of a lens or O-rings.
