6. Care & Maintenance

 

A.

 

Please use the utmost care and do not use excessive force when 

assembling and disassembling the different accessories, in order not 

cause any damage to the product.    

B.

 

Keep the BigEye Lens away from extreme high temperatures, as under 

direct sunlight, since it might damage the O-ring and interfere with the 

watertight seal of the lens. 

C.

 

Do not clean the lens with any chemical solvents or other materials, 

which might cause damage to the plastic dome. 

D.

 

Never look at the sun through the lens. 

E.

 

When storing the lens and during transportation, make sure that it is 

properly protected in order to prevent scratches, cracks or any other 

damage to the lens.  

F.

 

After Dive Care:

 

I.

 

Detach the BigEye Lens from the housing lens port and rinse all 

lens components in fresh water.  

II.

 

To ensure that the accumulated salt has completely dissolved, it is 

recommended to soak the lens in warm fresh water once in a 

while. 

III.

 

Wipe the water drops with a soft cloth. Do not leave any droplets 

to dry on lens surface, as permanent water spots may remain. 

IV.

 

Store the lens in a dry and protected area. Storing the lens in a low 

humidity environment will decrease the chances of the lens 

fogging up when submerged in water.  

V.

 

Do not store the lens in presence of chemicals, solvents or fuels.
