Maintenance

Cleaning the camera
We recommend to rinse the camera in fresh, warm water, while working
the ring and switch. Also - no solvents/chemicals should be used while
cleaning. If sand grains should get stuck underneath the magnetic
switches please contact our support for instructions.
Cleaning the o-rings
Check that the o-rings have not been stretched and that they do not have
any cuts, tears and dirt (hair, dust). To lubricate the o-rings apply a thin
layer of grease and run them through your fingers while gently rubbing
the grease into the o-ring (do not use spray lubricant or petroleum based
grease).
Cleaning the lens
All waters looks murky with a dirty lens! Make sure your lens is clean and
has no scratches. To clean the lens, wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth. You
can use Eyeglass Cleaning Fluid – but do not use strong solvents such as
benzene or alcohol.
How do I prevent the camera from flooding?
The triple o-rings are tested to 250 m/820 ft./26 ATM. , so as long as you
properly maintain the o-rings and don't open the camera below water you
should be fine. Remember to put on the end cap correctly.
