Important Notes on Waterproof Function and Waterproof Housing
Read and understand the instructions contained in this manual before
using underwater.
The inner camera is not waterproof or shock protected. Seal the camera
inside the waterproof housing in areas of water, rain, snow, high humidity,
sand, dirt or combustible gas*.
*
Warning - the camera inside the waterproof housing IS NOT certified
to be intrinsically safe. Using the camera in an environment containing
combustible gases may result in explosion or fire.
Follow these important O-ring care instructions or the waterproof housing
may leak.
*
Do not lubricate o-ring.
*
Inspect and clean O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces for sand, hair and
other debris before every use. Clean O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces
with cleaning brush provided.
*
Inspect O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces for damage (cuts, scratches,
tears, cracks, dents and any other imperfections.) Replace O-ring or have
waterproof housing serviced if the O-ring or O-ring contact surfaces become
damaged.
*
Do not use underwater housing if O-ring or O-ring contact surfaces are
damaged.
*
Make sure O-ring is completely seated into O-ring groove before sealing
housing.
*
Make sure the O-ring is not twisted when seated in the O-ring groove.
*
Carefully follow O-ring removal and installation instructions contained on
page 64 of this manual.
*
Replace O-ring every year to ensure proper seal. Only use approved
SeaLife O-ring designed for the DC1200 (Item # SL17017). Replacement
O-rings are available at your local authorized SeaLife dealer, or online at
www.sealifepartsdirect.com (USA Only).
Carefully close lid and latch to seal housing and make sure there are no
obstructions that prevent housing from closing or sealing properly.
