SETTING UP THE HOUSING

Note

PREPARING THE CAMERA

1. Install a (preferably empty) memory card (16 GB+ capacity recommended) and a fully charged
battery inside the camera.
2. Remove the camera strap from the camera if one was installed.
3. Turn the Mode Dial so the Auto shooting mode is selected and aligned with the mark on the left
of the wheel. This will allow for the camera and housing mode dials to be aligned, so the housing
mode dial will indicate the proper mode selected by the camera dial.
4. It is recommended to program the camera to the most frequently used touch screen settings
prior to installing the camera in the housing. Please refer to the "Touch Screen Controls Friendly
Guidelines" section for further information.

PREPARING THE HOUSING

1. When using the housing for the first time-
a. Peel the transparent plastic screen protector off the back door exterior of the housing.
b. Install the hand lanyard on the housing by inserting it through the lanyard loop on the
bottom right of the housing (facing from back), then pulling it through itself and testing it
in order to make sure it is secure (figure #2 on the following page).
c. Install the housing side of the diffuser and lens port cover quick release secure lines by
tying them around the lower rectangular loops at the bottom of the housing (figure #3 on
the following page). Please note that these lines may come assembled and then there is
no need for installation.
d. Open the housing (see section "Opening the Housing" on the following page) and remove
the anti-glare hood out of the housing. Secure the anti-glare hood to the housing by tying
its secure string around the same loop – the lower rectangular loop at the bottom left
side of the housing.

It is important that a first dive is always carried out with the housing
empty (no camera installed inside) in order to verify that the housing
watertight seal has not been affected during transport and after long
periods of storage.
