Cleaning the case with pure water

After using this case, remove the flash, then
seal it again with the TTL cable still connected,
and rinse it with pure water as soon as
possible. After use in salt water, the case
should be immersed for an extended period of
time in a bowl of pure water to remove any salt
water or salt residues.
CAUTION
:• Water may enter the case under localized high water pressure (such as from a hose.)
Before cleaning the case with water, the flash should be removed.
• Operate the mode dial knob and buttons of the case when it is in clean tap water
to remove any salt from their shafts. Do not disassemble the case for cleaning!
• If the case is dried before all salt has been removed, this could affect its
performance. Always make sure all salt has been removed!
• If the case should be cleaned without the TTL cable connected to it, be sure
to attach the cap to the connector in advance.

Disconnecting the TTL cable

After making sure that the case and TTL cable
are free of water drops, loosen the lock dial
screw and disconnect the TTL cable.
CAUTION
:• Do not apply excessive force when disconnecting the cable.
• Be careful not to leave dust or other foreign matter on the connector's O-ring. If
dust or other foreign matter gets on the O-ring, clean it in the same way as the
Case's O-ring.
• After disconnecting the cable, be sure to replace the TTL cable connector
cap on the connector. Before doing so, however, apply a thin layer of the
silicone grease provided with the Case to the threaded section of the TTL
cable connector on the Case.

Drying the case and TTL cable

After washing the case and TTL cable, dry them with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth. Then,
leave them to dry completely in a well-ventilated location protected from direct sunlight.
CAUTION
:• Never use hot air from a hair dryer or other appliance to dry the case and TTL cable,
and never place them in direct sunlight to dry. This could deteriorate or deform the
case, TTL cable and O-ring and lead to water penetration. When wiping the case,
take care not to scratch it.
