1 . Place housing face down in your lap.
2. Check to see that there is an o'ring
on the housing back and that it is
clean and in its proper location.

all the way around. There should be
an even gap all the way around
between the housing and the
housing back.
4. Lift the lid snaps so they are
extended and place the lid snap
into the hook on the housing back.

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.
