Precautions on Handling the O-ring
This product is kept watertight by the O-ring. To keep the O-ring functioning properly,
please observe the following. Improper handling of the O-ring could cause flooding.
CAUTION
SEA&SEA products use blue O-rings. These O-rings are impregnated with silicone oil
through a special process. The lubricating effect of the O-ring lasts as long as the
silicone oil is gradually seeping out from within.
For the maintenance of these blue O-rings, make sure to use genuine SEA&SEA
silicone grease (O-ring grease for use with the blue O-rings that comes in tubes with
blue lettering and blue caps). If you use silicone grease from other companies or
SEA&SEA's own silicone grease that comes in tubes with black lettering and black
caps, the grease you apply will be sucked into the blue O-rings due to their special
characteristics, which will result in insufficient grease. If this happens even once, the
O-ring will not revert to its normal state and must be replaced.
If the grease is insufficient, the O-ring will not slide, and it will become harder to open
and close the waterproof parts. Because of this, it could become impossible to open or
close the housing or it could cause flooding, so please refrain from using the housing
with insufficient grease.
Maintenance and Storage
Never use chemicals, cosmetics, any petroleum solvents such as paint thinner, or
neutral detergent on the product. They may deform and damage the product.
After each use in salt water, make sure it's watertight, then soak it sufficiently in fresh
water.
Insufficient soaking causes damage by salt to the product. Salty residue may be left on
the product where it will crystallize as it evaporates. Crystallized salt is hard to dissolve
and difficult to be removed once formed, and it will result in water leakage.
After rinsing, dry the product well with a soft dry cloth, then let the product dry in the
shade, out of direct sunlight.
Do not dry the product by heating (using a hair dryer, for example). Heating can deform
and damage the product.
If you will not use the product for an extended period of time, store it away from high
temperatures, high humidity, direct sunlight, or extreme cold.
Do not store the product with naphthalene or camphor mothballs, or in locations such
as a laboratory where chemicals are used. This environment can cause mold, rust,
corrosion or malfunction.
After using the product, maintain the O-rings before storing. Examine the O-rings before
and after each dive. We recommend early exchange of the O-rings, at least once a year.
Although it depends on how often it is used and how it is stored, an O-ring generally
lasts for one year. Replace the O-ring every year for the best performance of the
product.
Every two years we recommend a complete overhaul of O-rings regardless of the
frequency in use, for the best performance of the product.
