Ikelite controls are designed to provide years of reliable service with
minimal maintenance.
Push button controls normally require no maintenance other than
rinsing in freshwater after saltwater use. Depress each push button
in freshwater several times to eliminate trapped saltwater. If a push
button control becomes difficult to push or if it sticks when depressed,
soak the housing in warm freshwater. After a few minutes, operate the
push button. If this does not correct the problem, return the housing
to Ikelite for maintenance. If you are on a trip and unable to return
the housing immediately,
a push button may be
lubricated by pressing and
holding the push button
all the way in. Then, use
your finger or other small
non-metal object to place
a small amount of lube at
the base of the shaft inside
the housing. Press and
release the push button
several times until the lube
is worked up into the o-ring.
After completing this
procedure, close the
housing and submerge it in
water without the camera
i nside. Check the control
for watertightness.
