1. Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing. We
recommend that you use only Ikelite lubricant as some other
brands may cause the o’ring to swell and not seal properly.
2. Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts and
o’rings. Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth.
Lubricant is not a sealant, it is used to reduce friction. Excessive
lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may interfere with
proper sealing.

It is recommended that you take the complete system into a
swimming pool before use in open water. This will give you a
chance to become familiar with the handling and operation of
your housing and strobe(s).

The buoyancy of the system will depend on the size and
number of strobes used as well as the weight of the camera.
Ideally the system should be slightly negative in the
environment in which it will be used. If you need to add weight
to the system, an optional lead weight is available. To add the
lead weight remove the (2) screws from the bottom of the
aluminum tray. Place the lead weight into the pocket of the
aluminum tray and reattach.

While both the Port and Back o’rings should last quite some time
it is best to carry a spare in case one becomes damaged or lost.

When the housing is going to be stored for a prolonged period
the exterior of the housing should be soaked in a mild soap
solution, rinsed and dried thoroughly. Then remove the back and
port from the housing. Remove the back and port o’rings, lightly
lubricate them and place them in a plastic zip-lock bag. Place the
plastic bag inside the housing for storage.
