Installing an Accessory via the Accessory Port
1.
Remove the Hole Plug using an 11/16” open end wrench.
2.
Check the accessory fitting o-ring sealing area. Check o-ring and
housing o-ring sealing area. All should be clean and free of hair,
sand, or other debris.
3.
Lightly lubricate o-ring with Ikelite lubricant. Use ONLY Ikelite
lubricant. Other manufacturer lubricants can cause the o-ring to
swell.
4.
Carefully screw in and tighten accessory fitting. The accessory port
features a 1/2-20 threaded hole. Make sure your fitting is the same
thread pattern. DO NOT cross-thread. DO NOT overtighten.
5.
After installing an accessory, pressure test the housing by diving
without a camera inside.
NOTICE: Your Ikelite housing warranty DOES NOT extend
to cover the attachment of aftermarket housing accessories
or accessory fittings by 3rd parties. Warranty DOES cover
factory optional accessories attached by certified Ikelite service
technicians.

Do not remove the Accessory Port Hole Plug unless you are
installing a compatible accessory.
Maintenance
Post-Dive
1.
Rinse the housing in fresh water. Rotate the housing’s controls and
press each button while submerged in fresh water to flush out any
salt or debris to ensure smooth operation on future dives.
