Entering the Water

1. If possible, we recommend entering the water without your housing
to ensure that you are comfortable and your life-saving equipment
is in working order. Once you are stable, have someone pass your
camera housing to you.
2. Submerge the housing at the surface of the water and visually
confirm that there are no signs of water intrusion or a steady stream
of bubbles coming from one of the housing seals. If water does
appear to be entering the housing, point the lens port downward
and return the housing to the surface as quickly as possible. Always
observe all necessary safety precautions. NEVER ascend faster
than accepted safety limits.
3. Use your hand to gently flush away any small bubbles that may be
on the face of the lens port. Bubbles will produce soft focus spots in
your photo or video.

Zoom Control

After you have used the housing's zoom control, it must be returned to
the center position to disengage. If the housing zoom control is
pushing the zoom lever in either direction, you may not be able to take
a picture or access other functions. This is because the camera is
receiving a signal from the engaged zoom control.
