Maintenance
Keeping your system clean and preventing it from any damage will ex-
tend its lifetime and performance. This section will tell you how to main-
tain your system. Please refer to the instructional video and/or contact
ASL for more info.
While assembling the unit
Inspect all the o-rings to detect any dirt or debris. If any, wipe them off
with your finger or a lint free cloth. Gently lubricate them. Do not over
lubricate, as this could attract more dirt and debris. It is good to some-
times remove the o-rings from their location and make an overall inspec-
tion. When replacing them on the unit, do not overstretch them so that
they will keep their properties. If you use the system quite often in salt
water and/or hostile environment, we suggest that you send your system
for an overall service every year. Having the o-rings serviced once in a
while will extend their lifetime and their performance. An o-ring that has
never been serviced could lose its round profile, become dry and lose its
properties.
After Every Dive
Rinse the unit in fresh water for at least 10 minutes after every dive. If
you can leave it in fresh water for longer, please do so. This will prevent
salt and sand to build up on and between the pieces. Use a clean towel
to remove the excess water and completely dry the unit.
Storage
We suggest that you always keep your system in a dry and clean envi-
ronment. Avoid leaving the unit near high sources of heat or cold since
condensation may build up inside and damage the camera head.
