Final Test
After the electronic flash has been inserted in the case, you should perform
the final system check. This covers all tests that you must carry out to make
sure that no water can enter the case. The tests are easy to do and only take
about 5 minutes. All you need is a bowl or tub of water.
❈
The following procedure was originally developed to test for water
penetration inside the camera case. The test procedure for the waterproof
flash case is identical, so please follow these steps.

Hints
1
Place the Case
slowly into the water.
As the Case is transparent,
waterdrops entering into it can be
confirmed easily.
2
At first, immerse the
Case for only three
seconds.
In case of trouble with the O-ring,
three seconds are enough for water
to enter. Are there air bubbles
coming out between the lids?
Please check carefully.
3
Check that no water
has entered into the
Case.
Remove the Case from the water and
check that no water has accumulated at
the bottom of the Case.
Is there any water trickling down?
4
Next, immerse the
Case for 30
seconds.
Check carefully for air bubbles!
Do not perform any operation yet,
but just observe.
5
Check that no water
has entered.
Remove the Case from the water and
check that no water has accumulated
at the bottom of the Case.
Perform very careful confirmation.
6
Next, check by
immersing for three
minutes.
Check carefully for air bubbles!
Try operation of the buttons used frequently.
Check carefully for air bubbles!
If there is still no entry of water,
everything is OK!
7
This is the final check.
Has the silica gel
become moist?
This is very important!
Has the silica gel become moist?
Please check carefully!
As the inside can be seen, the inspection for
entry of water also can be made securely!

Now everything is
all right.
Now everything is all right!
Have a nice dive!
