Diffuser or Deflector should be installed before inserting the
camera into the housing.
A diffuser and deflector are included with the housing. The diffuser
is white transparent plastic and should be installed when the
camera’s built-in flash will be used. The deflector is also white but
is not transparent and should be installed when an exterenal Strobe

To install the diffuser or deflector spread the lens clamp and
slide over the camera lens. The white plastic should be placed
in front of the camera flash. The lens clamp should be pushed
back against the camera.
