How to set-up the Waterproof Housing
Set up camera
1. Insert fully charged lithium battery into camera.
2. Clean camera lens with dry, clean cotton cloth.
3. Remove camera strap since this may prevent the camera from
correctly seating itself inside the housing.
4. Set camera to Sea mode. If you are using an External Flash, set
camera to External Flash mode. See page 31 for detailed
instructions on how to set camera to Sea or External Flash modes.
Set up housing
Opening and loading of the housing should be done only in dry
cool air, such as in an air-conditioned room to prevent trapping
moist air in the housing which can cause the housing to fog while
underwater.
1. Open the housing by pushing in small locking tab and lift latch up.
Do not extend housing lid beyond its stop point or damage
may occur to the hinge area.
2. Carefully inspect O-ring for damage and make sure O-ring is firmly
seated in its groove. If O-ring is damaged and requires replacement,
contact your local authorized SeaLife dealer or SeaLife Service
Center.
3. Clean the housing glass lens port using clean, dry cotton cloth. It
is recommended to apply anti-fog solution to the inside surface of
the housing lens port.
4. Carefully insert camera into housing. Make sure camera is clean and
dry.
5. Insert one Moisture Muncher anti-fog (item #SL911) desicant capsules
into special slot inside housing. As the dessicant absorbs moist
air, it turns from blue to light pink. Replace desicant capsule when color
changes to light pink.
6. Carefully clean O-ring and O-ring contact surfaces with cleaning
brush provided in Care Kit. O-ring must not be wet when sealing
housing, allow these areas to dry.
O-ring must be absolutely clean of all hair, sand or other
small particles.
