4.
Carefully open the housing back.
Installing the Camera
1.
Remove any lanyard, neck strap, or accessory attached
to the camera.
2.
Remove the protective backing from the anti-reflection
ring and adhere it to the front of the camera centered
around the lens. This will reduce reflections in sunny and
flash lit conditions.
3.
Place the camera into the front of the housing with the
lens centered in the lens port.
4.
Make sure the camera is sitting flat in the housing and
flush to the front support ribs.
Closing the Housing
1.
Apply a very thin, even layer of lubricant to the exposed
portion of the o-ring and housing sealing surface. Avoid
dry spots or uneven build-up of lubricant.
2.
Close and latch the housing back. Press the latch
towards the housing until the lock buttons click into place.
3.
Check the latch. The buttons will not be depressed when
the latch is properly locked. Pulling on the latch without
pressing the buttons should not allow the latch to open.
Using the Flash Diffuser
Install the semi-transparent diffuser when using the camera’s
built- in flash. A portion of the camera’s built-in flash may be
blocked by the housing’s lens port. The diffuser spreads the
light of the flash to reduce any effects on the image.
It may be necessary to zoom in when shooting close-up
photos to completely eliminate any darkened areas.
Using the Flash Deflector
Install the opaque white flash deflector when using external
strobes. The flash deflector improves transmission of light to
the fiber optic ports and reduces unwanted backscatter (the
illumination of particles in the water).

Maintenance and Storage
1.
Check and lubricate the main housing o-ring.
2.
Submerge the closed housing in lukewarm fresh water.
While submerged, rotate each control and depress each
button to flush out any salt or debris.
3.
Remove the housing from water and rinse with running
water.
4.
Do not rinse the inside of the housing or submerge the
open housing in water. If the inside of the housing needs
to be cleaned, wipe with a clean, slightly damp cloth.
5.
Dry the housing with a clean, lint-free cloth.
6.
Store in a cool, dry place.
7.
Like regulators and other pressure-sensitive equipment,
we recommend careful cleaning along with annual
replacement of the factory seals.
