Always turn the Substrobe OFF before opening the battery compartment located
at the back of the strobe.
Grasp the outer circular ring of the battery door, rotate counter-clockwise several
times, and then firmly pull on the battery door to remove. We suggest tilting the rear
portion of the strobe down while removing the battery door to eliminate the possibility
of water droplets falling into the battery compartment.
The center oval shaped knob on the battery door simply adjusts the exposure scale
and does not affect the o-ring seal of the battery door. The battery compartment is
sealed separately from the main strobe electronics. D

OTT disassemble the strobe. We
suggest storage of your strobe with the battery door removed to allow any hydrogen/air
mixture to escape.

The o-ring is located on the inside section of the battery door, and the door can
be separated into two sections for easy access to the o-ring. To separate the inside and
outside sections of the battery door, place the battery door in the palm of your hand
to keep the inside section from rotating. Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the center
opening of the external section, press down and rotate the screwdriver counter-
clockwise 90°, and then lift off external section of the door. Reverse the procedure to
resecure the two battery door sections.
Keep o-ring and sealing surfaces clean.
LIGHTLY LUBRICATE the o-ring with the
silicone lubricant provided. Also lightly lubricate o-ring sealing surface on the inside
of the strobe body. Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover the o-ring; wipe off any
excess with a clean cloth. Lubricant only reduces friction; it is NOT a sealant. Never
use spray lubricant as it may crack the plastic.

Check that the o-ring and sealing surfaces are clean and lightly lubricated.
Center the battery door over the opening and press down firmly on the door.
Continue to firmly press down on the battery door as you begin rotating the door
clockwise. Make sure that you do not cross-thread when tightening. Rotate the battery
door clockwise several times until snug.
Then rotate the door back counter-clockwise
slightly so that it will be easier to open next time.
