4) Make sure glass port is not split or cracked. Inspect for other obvious damages that
may cause a leak in the housing (Cracks, tears, punctures, etc.).
5) Make sure the Moisture Muncher capsule is not interfering with the O-ring or sealing
area. Follow instructions on page 12.
6) Inspect closing latches for damage and proper tension. If damaged or bent, have
latches replaced by authorized Sealife service center. A waterproof test can be
performed at most scuba dive stores. A simple home test can be made by
submerging the housing without inner camera in water overnight. Place 2 lb./1kg soft
weight wrapped in a paper napkin in housing. Carefully dry and open housing not to
drip water inside and inspect towel for water spots indicating a leak.
Problem: Glare or reflection appears in picture. Reason: Improperly attached macro
lens. Solutions: The close-up lens must be completely pushed on the housing and sit
flat. Make sure your hand does not push on the macro lens or pull on the safety lanyard
of the lens. Or have a new docking port ring attached to your camera at a SeaLife
service center.
Problem: Flash does not fire. Reason: Flash-ready light was not on. Or: External flash
head sensor was not directed towards camera. Solution: Wait for flash ready light to
turn on before shooting picture. Test and replace batteries if necessary. Flash is
automatic, and may not fire in bright light. Taking another shot at a different angle with
more dark background will cause the flash to fire. Make sure the flash sensor of the
external flash is directed towards the camera, since the primary flash of the camera
triggers all secondary flashes.
