ImportantNotices
»A bulkhead cap or sync cord must be attached to the housing
bulkhead for waterproof operation. Never submerge the
housing in water without either a sync cord or bulkhead cap
attached.
»Do not pull the shutter trigger without a camera installed. You
may accidentally detach or damage the control spring.
»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only
system in the tank. Accidental damage may occur when the
user walks away from a housing while it is in the rinse tank.
»Do not use alcohol, cleaning agents, spray lubricants, Rain-X,
or other solvents on the housing or lens port. Use of an
incompatible chemical compound can damage the plastic and
o-rings, and may result in leaking.
AccessoryPort
»Do not remove the Accessory Port Plug unless you are
installing a compatible accessory.
Your housing features one spare Accessory Port which may be used
for attachment of factory optional or aftermarket housing accessories.
The Accessory Port is 1/2-20 threaded.
