3.  Insert one Moisture Muncher desiccant capsule into the housing as 

shown above (A).  Rotate the holding arm (B) over the capsule to 
prevent it from falling out.   

 

Moisture Muncher absorbs the 
humidity trapped inside the 
housing and prevents the optical 
lens port from fogging 
underwater. One Moisture 
Muncher capsule sample is 
included with the camera.  Check 
with your local authorized SeaLife 
dealer to reorder (Item # SL911)
