Place housing face down in your
lap
Check to see that there is an
o'ring on the housing back and
that it is clean and in its proper
location
Guide the back onto the housing
The o'ring should touch the
housing all the way around There
should be an even gap all the way
around between the housing and
the housing back
Lift the lid snaps so they are
extended and place the lid snap
into the hook on the housing
back
To close the housing push
down on the lid snaps until
they snap into place Lid
snaps on opposite sides of the
housing should be closed at the
same time Be sure they are down
far enough to engage the lock
D D o o u u b b l l e e c c h h e e c c k k Once the housing is closed check the o'ring seal
Check the gap between the housing back and the housing it
should be even all the way around
Look through the clear plastic back at the o'ring You should see a
darkened area where the o'ring is compressed against the
housing back If you do not see an even black compression seal
all the way around the back open the lid snaps reseat the
housing back and close the lid snaps Visually check the seal again
L L u u b b r r i i c c a a n n t t s s
Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing We recommend
you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite products as some other
brands may cause the o'ring to swell and not seal properly
Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts and
o'rings Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth
Lubricant is not a sealant it is used to reduce friction Excessive
lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may interfere with
proper sealing
