An optional internal moisture alarm is available for your AQUATICA Digital housing (Product # 20023). This moisture alarm is powered by an easily re- placed CR 2032 battery. Please read the instruction sheet provided for your moisture alarm prior to installing the battery.
TRANSPORTING THE AQUATICA DIGITAL HOUSING Store the AQUATICA Digital housing in a sturdy, shock proof container. When travelling by air, remove or loosen the port. This allows for equalization of the air pressure inside the housing to the external air pressure. Failure to do so may cause serious damage to the acrylic ports. Avoid travelling with the camera mounted in the housing.
Wipe the sealing surface part of the housing that the O-ring seals against with a clean lint-free cloth. Re-grease the O-ring with a thin layer of Aquatica O-ring lubricant until it appears to be smooth and shiny. Do not over grease it. Use just enough grease so the O-ring will pull smoothly through your fingers.
