Closing the housing
1. Carefully inspect the orange o-ring on the back and the sealing surface on the front.
Make sure they are clean and free of debris or marks that could compromise the seal.
2. Mate the two halves of the housing. Place the housing back onto housing front
leading with the right side first to align the Camera/Off and Rec/Stby controls with the
camera. Use the ‘drip lip’ to guide the alignment. The housing halves should mate
easily with no obstructions. If there are any obstructions, separate the halves and
identify the problem before trying again.
3. Be sure the User 1 / User 2 control (optional) is pulled out on the left side of
the housing so you do not switch the Auto/Manual switch to Auto Lock or Hold
positions if you intend to use all the manual functions on the camera.
4. Align all three latches -- Each latch should fall over the catch on the front of the
housing. Close the two side latches at the same time, close the latch on top of
housing last. Each latch will ‘snap’ and lock into position when closed.
Lead with the right side
to align the controls
with the camera.
Mate the housing
halves, ensure proper
alignment and secure
latches.
