CLEANING & STORAGE

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The body and lid of the housing are made of polycarbonate. Polycarbonate was selected for its outstanding
tensile strength, hardness, toughness and its crystal clear transparency/ high gloss surface. It has good
resistance to weathering, although long-term exposure to sunlight should be avoided. The normal operating
temperature range is from 3°C to 36°C [37-97°F]--Storage temperature: -10°C to 50°C) [14-122°F].
It is good practice to rinse off your housing with fresh water after every dive. Avoid exposure to fine sand.
After a series of 10 or more dives, e.g. after a dive holiday, it is recommended to immerse the housing for 2-3
hours in warm water to dissolve any salt deposits that may have built up. No chemical cleaners should be
used. Mild detergents e.g. shampoo and soap based cleaners are permitted.
