 Accidents. 

The impact resistance of the housing is excellent. However after an accident the alignment of 

the housing may have been damaged. Therefore in the event of your housing suffering an impact force, 

e.g. being dropped, it is essential you do not use the housing for diving. Please return the housing 
immediately for service. Please put a note inside to indicate the nature of the accident, so that the severity 

can be assessed.
