1. A water-tight test without the monitor inside the housing is highly
recommended when using the system for the first time and after the changing
of port and O-ring(s).
2. Do not use lubricants from other brands with the silicone rubber O-ring on this
housing, only use the lubricant provided by NAUTICAM.
3. Discontinue use immediately should you notice any leakage.
4. Store the housing in a robust, shock-proof container during transportation;
avoid transporting with any equipment, such as a camera, inside the housing.
5. When travelling by air, do not close the housing as this may lead to a pressure
difference between the atmosphere and inside the housing.
6. Care must be taken when opening the housing, as pressure may build up inside
the housing which increases the opening force.
7. Do not open the product in a wet or sandy environment. Protect the interior
from moisture and debris in order to prevent malfunction or leakage.
8. Do not store the product in an environment of high humidity.
9. Do not leave the housing and the monitor in direct sunlight for prolonged
periods.

2. Make sure the O-ring groove located in the front part of the housing is free
from any foreign material; the groove can be cleaned with the aid of a
microfiber cloth.
3. Place the main O-ring into the groove, first at the corners, then the whole
perimeter.

1. Soak the housing system in fresh water after each salt water use, during which
all control buttons/knobs should be operated a few times to avoid the
accumulation of salt residue; wipe the housing with a towel before opening.
2. Carefully press the housing lock safety button for a few times to avoid the
accumulation of salt residue.
3. After each day of diving, it is advisable to have the main O-ring in the front part
of the housing removed from its groove with the O-ring remover and
inspected for damage. Also check that the O-ring retains its original circular
shape; never stretch the O-ring excessively or remove it with a sharp object.
The O-ring groove should be cleaned to ensure it is free from any salt deposit
or foreign material; lightly coat the O-ring with the provided lubricant before
reinstalling it in the groove. A damaged O-ring should be discarded
immediately and replaced only with one that is provided by NAUTICAM.
4. Replace the main O-ring annually.
5. It is recommended that you ship the housing to our distributor for a complete
overhaul every year or after every 200 dives.
