NOTE:
•
A single hair or grain of sand can cause a leak. You can test by closing the case without
inserting the camera. Submerse the case completely in water for about a minute. Remove
the case from the water, dry off its exterior with a towel, and then open the case. If the
entire interior is dry, the case is safe for use under water.
•
Before opening the waterproof casing and putting the device in, carefully check whether
the waterproof ring of the casing is flat and smooth.
•
After placing the device into the waterproof casing and closing the cover, carefully check
whether the waterproof ring is deformed due to pressure.
•
After every use in salt water you will need to rinse the outside of the housing with non-salt
water and dry. Not doing this can eventually cause corrosion of the hinge pin and salt
buildup in the seal, which can cause failure.
•
To clean the seal, rinse in fresh water and shake dry (drying with a cloth may cause lint to
compromise the seal). Re-install the seal into the grooves of the housing.
