5. Visually inspect the black O-ring through the transparent back door for proper closure. Make
sure it isn't twisted or out of the groove and that no foreign matter has been caught in the seal,
such as secure lines, sand, grit, hairs or any other foreign substance.
6. Test housing control buttons to make sure that the camera was properly installed inside the
housing and that nothing interferes with normal operation of the camera. It is recommended to
take a few images once the camera has been installed inside the housing and prior to the dive in
order to ensure proper operation.
7. Prior to diving with the housing, submerge it in a shallow tub of water or rinse tank. Carefully look at
the housing to make sure no bubbles are escaping from it, no water is entering and the moisture
alarm (if installed inside the housing) doesn't beep.
8. If a Vacuum Safety System is installed inside the housing, perform a pre-dive check to confirm the
watertight seal of the housing. See "Hybrid Vacuum Safety System" section for further instructions.
9. Note that once the camera has been installed inside the housing, if placing the housing on a surface
with the lens port facing down, its center of gravity will necessarily make the housing drop on its
side, potentially causing damage to the camera and housing. Therefore, it is best to avoid placing
the housing on a surface with the lens port facing down. If the housing must be placed with the lens
port facing down, make sure to support it so it doesn't drop on its side.
REMOVING THE CAMERA FROM THE HOUSING
1. After use, thoroughly rinse the housing fresh water. Prior to opening the housing, make sure
both your hands and the housing are clean and dry. It is recommended to have a clean, dry and
soft towel handy in order to dry your hands and the water drops on the housing.
