To open, squeeze the spring loaded
latch to release the locking tabs, then
pull open the door using the handle.

resistance while opening the door.
To close, push the door firmly until it 'clicks' into place and the locking
tabs are secured into position. If needed, press on the door firmly near the
locking tabs to ensure the door is fully closed and locked. The waterproof
seal on the door will create some resistance while closing the door.
To ensure the compartment is watertight:

other contaminants, and also check for any damage to the seal. If the
seal is damaged or dirty the compartment may not be waterproof.
· Ensure the door is fully seated into its closed and locked position. If the
door is not properly closed the compartment may not be waterproof.
· Ensure no obstruction is keeping the door from closing properly. If the
