1. Place housing face down in your lap.
2. Check to see that there is an o’ring
on the housing back and that it is
clean, and in its proper location.
3. Guide the back onto the housing.
The o’ring should touch the housing
all the way around. There should be
an even gap all the way around
between the housing and the
housing back.
4. Lift the lid snaps so they are
extended and place the lid snap
into the hook on the housing back.
5. To close the housing, push
down on the lid snaps until
they snap into place . Lid
snaps on opposite sides of the
housing should be closed at the
same time. Be sure they are down
far enough to engage the lock.
D
Doouubbllee cchheecckk - Once the housing is closed, check the o’ring seal.
Check the gap between the housing back and the housing, it
should be even all the way around.
Look through the clear plastic back at the o’ring. You should see
a darkened area where the o’ring is compressed against the
housing back. If you do not see an even black compression seal
all the way around the back, open the lid snaps, reseat the
housing back and close the lid snaps. Visually check the seal again.

Before installing the camera, pull out on the controls in the front
section of the housing. This will allow the camera to slide in
easier. Once the camera is installed and the lid snaps have been
closed, return the controls to their operating position.

The Zoom Clamp has springs so it can be expanded to fit over
the Zoom ring of the lens as shown ((FFiigg.. CC)). Install the Zoom
Clamp with the extension tabs toward the rear element of the
lens. After installing the Zoom Clamp, check that when rotating
the Zoom Clamp, it rotates the Zoom ring on the lens. If the
Zoom Clamp is not tight enough to rotate the Zoom ring on the
lens, remove the Zoom Clamp and install the rubber strips
(supplied) to the inside of the Zoom Clamp as shown ((FFiigg.. FF)).
Two thicknesses of rubber strips are provided. Start by installing
the thinnest rubber strips. If the Zoom Clamp still is not tight
enough, use the thicker rubber strips. Reinstall the Zoom Clamp.
