Important Notices
»This housing requires a compatible DLM lens port for
waterproof operation. The housing is not waterproof without a
DLM lens port 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.
»If you will be using the system in strong surf it is
recommended to draw a vacuum on the housing using the
optional vacuum kit (sold separately).
