5. Using the O-Ring Removal Pick, remove O-Rings.
6. Clean O-Ring grooves and contact surfaces using a clean cotton swab. DO NOT clean
housing or Lens Port with volatile organic solvents or chemical cleaning agents such as
thinner, gasoline, and benzine, etc.
7. Perform O-RING GREASING & MAINTENANCE as instructed below before re-installing.
O-RING GREASING & MAINTENANCE ( 1)
※
CAUTION!
DO NOT use silicone grease other than that provided by Seatool/Recsea.
CAUTION!
This housing uses two (2) O-Rings, both black in color. The larger O-Ring is for
the Back Cover, while the smaller O-Ring is for Main Body. Please be sure to install O-Rings
as shown above. Failure to do so will result in water leakage.
1. Using the O-Ring Removal Pick, remove O-Rings.
2. Clean sand, salt, other contaminants and old grease from O-Rings.
3. Clean O-Ring grooves and O-Ring contact surfaces using a clean cotton swab.
4. Visually and physically check O-Ring by running it through finger tips, feeling for cuts,
cracks or any other defects that may cause leakage. Such defects will cause water
leakage, so be sure to replace the O-Ring. Be careful not to stretch or pull the O-Ring too
much.
5. Squeeze a rice grain sized bead of silicone grease on your thumb and forefinger. Taking
care not to pull or stretch the O-Rings too much, uniformly spread grease on O-Ring. Too
little grease may cause the O-Ring to twist in the groove, possibly causing water leakage.
6. Place O-Ring in the appropriate O-Ring groove, making sure that it is uniform, not twisted
or bulging out, possibly causing water leakage. When closing back cover, visually check
O-Ring surfaces, tracing a finger over the to making sure no hair, lint or other
contaminants are attached.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
※
When housing is not used for long periods, remove O-Rings and place in separate plastic
bags to keep them free of dust and other contaminants and store in a place out of direct
sunlight. Please also be careful of prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during use. The
O-Rings and housing may become deformed, causing water leakage.
※
After extended periods of non-use, soak closed empty housing in lukewarm for half a day.
Manipulate all buttons and dials several times. Using a soft, dry cloth wipe away water.
CAUTION!
※
The O-Rings are an essential part of waterproofing for this housing. Not properly greasing
the O-Rings as directed may cause the O-Rings to twist in the O-Ring grooves, possibly
causing water leakage.
※
Always perform the above O-Ring, O-Ring groove and O-Ring surface maintenance and
greasing every time you open/close the housing.
