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. Rotate the Mode Dial so the Auto shooting mode is selected and aligned with the white 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 underwater photo mode,
lighting and other key settings prior to installing the camera in the housing.

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 (image #1).
c. Install the housing side of the diffuser quick release secure line by tying it around the
upper rectangular loop at the top left side of the housing, where the Fiber Optic Cable
Plate secure string is attached to as well (image #2). Please note that this line may come
assembled and then there is no need for installation.
d. Open the housing (see section "Opening the Housing") 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 lower rectangular loop at the bottom left side of the housing. Install the anti-
glare hood over the anti-glare hood rails at the back of the housing. First install the anti-
glare hood over the top rail (image #3) and then gently and carefully stretch it
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.
