6. Carefully clean O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces with cleaning brush
provided. O-ring must not be wet when sealing housing, allow these areas
to dry.
O-ring must be absolutely clean of all hair, sand or other small particles.
7. Do not allow any water droplets to get inside housing. This may cause the
inside of the housing to fog.
8. Close housing lid tightly. Make sure there are no obstructions that prevent
the housing from closing. Make sure lid is tightly pressed into housing.

body look for obvious gaps which indicates something is trapped. The
housing may leak if the lid is not evenly against the housing when closed.
It is normal to see a small even gap between the housing lid and body.

This may promote internal fogging.
Test camera and housing

power on.

their normal position, soak the sealed housing in fresh water for a few
minutes and press the buttons several times.
