This product is manufactured by machining methods. As a result, there may be minor

damage may cause fire.

 

The housing body is made of corrosion-resistant aluminum. However, saltwater can cause 

rusting so be sure to rinse thoroughly using fresh water without fail.

cause water leakage. If at all possible have housing handed to you after entering the
