Maintenance

Post-Dive

1. Rinse the housing in fresh water. Rotate the housing controls and
press each button several times while submerged in fresh water to
flush out any salt or debris to ensure smooth operation on future
dives.
2. NEVER leave your housing in a fresh water rinse tank, even if it is
the only system in the tank. Collisions with another person's gear
can cause scratches or damage to your equipment. Accidental
damage occurs most often in the rinse tank.
3. Rinse off any residual residue from the rinse tank with clean,
running fresh water.
4. Stow the housing in a shaded place where it is protected from
impact and overheating. If no shade is available, cover the housing
with a light colored towel or cloth.
5. Check the memory card capacity and battery life of your camera
and strobe(s). Recharge as necessary.
6. Always re-check the o-ring seal after opening the housing.
7. Detach the cord plug or bulkhead cap and lubricate the threads,
o-ring(s) and sealing surface(s) every 2-3 days during continuous
use.
