Closing the housing
Carefully inspect
o-ring on back half and sealing surface on front half. Make sure
they are clean and in good condition.
Mate the two halves of the housing.
The housing halves should mate together
easily with no obstructions. If there are any obstructions, separate the halves and
identify the problem before trying again.
Locate and close
the two bottom latches at the same time, followed by the top latch.
Caution
:
The safety latches must be
closed
and
locked
prior to use to avoid
opening underwater.
It is your responsibility to make sure the latches are
secure, locked, and in good condition. DO NOT enter the water with a faulty
latch.
Gates will replace a damaged or faulty latch free of charge.
Check the Magnified Viewfinder alignment.
With camera turned on verify the
camera viewfinder is aligned with the magnified viewfinder on the back shell.
Caution
:
Keep the Magnified Viewfinder capped when not in use. Sunlight
entering the Magnified Viewfinder can damage the camera viewfinder.
The housing shells should mate
without obstruction.
Note: PMW-200 housing shown.
Inspect the o-ring and
sealing surface before
closing.
