HOUSING HAND GRIP STRAP
The
FG7X II Housing
features two hand strap loops on the “latch” side of the housing, which enable the
attachment of the optional (but included) Hand Grip Strap. The Hand Grip Strap is useful for improving your
grip on the housing, especially during extreme sports activities or strong underwater currents.
Attaching the Fantasea Hand Strap
to the Housing
1.
Pull the narrow nylon hook-and-loop (Velcro style) strip through top of lower housing ring (below
the locking latch) in a downward direction to the end of the strip (Images #20 and 21).

2.
Place the wide flat hook-and-loop mid-section over the locking latch and pull the thin hook-and-
loop strip over the top of this mid-section and through
the upper housing ring from bottom to top all the way
through (Image #22).
3.
Double back the thin nylon hook-and-loop strip and
secure it tightly to the top of the hook-and-loop strip
previously inserted (same strip) and press down. Then
cover with the wide flap (should be on the right side)
over the thin hook-and-loop strips (Image #23).
4.
Place top flap (with logo) over bottom flap and press
to close (Images #24 below and #25).

5.
To use
the Hand Strap, slide your right hand from the
backside to front of the Hand Strap with your knuckles
protruding slightly from the front (lens side) of the strap
(Image #25). The Hand Strap should be snug but not too
tight, in order to allow for housing control manipulation.
6.
For additional security, it is recommended that you also
use the Wrist Lanyard with the Hand Strap.
7.
When opening or closing the housing, you may need to
loosen the Hand Strap so it can be moved out of the way
to allow for easier locking and unlocking of the latch.
8.
When closing the housing, take special notice not to close
part of the Hand Strap inside the housing, which will
interfere with the watertight seal of the housing.
9.
Rinse the Hand Strap in fresh water and then dry after use. Store in a dry, shaded area.
COLD-SHOE CONNECTOR FOR LIGHTING ACCESSORIES AND ACTION CAMS
The Cold-Shoe Mount featured on the housing enables mounting a flash, video light, night dive torch, focus
light, or action camera on top of the housing by using a standard Cold-Shoe connector. To install or remove
Cold Shoe connectors, the Fiber Optic Cable Plate should first be removed. The plate can be replaced once
the connector has been mounted or removed from the Cold-Shoe mount.
