Once the housing has been closed, make sure the housing
controls line up with the corresponding camera controls. If the
housing controls are misaligned slightly, make sure the camera
hold down bolt has been tightened down firmly so the camera
is flat against the tray.

Turn the camera on and operate each of the housing controls to
get a feel for using the camera in the housing. Take a few pictures
above water with the camera in the housing.

(NOTE:) After you have used the
housing's zoom control, it must be
returned to the center position to
disengage. If the housing zoom
control is pushing the zoom lever
in either direction, you may not
be able to take a picture or access
any other function because the
camera is receiving a signal from
the engaged zoom control.

1. Place housing face down in your
lap or on flat surface.
2. Check to see that there is an
o-ring on the housing back and
that it is clean and in its proper
location.
3. Guide the back into the housing
front. The o-ring should touch the
h
ousing all the way around. There
should be an even gap all the way
around between the housing and
the housing back.
4
. Lift the lid snaps so they are
extended and place each lid
snap into the corresponding hook
on the housing back.
5
. To close the housing, push
down on the lid snaps until
they snap into place . Lid
snaps on opposite sides of the
housing should be closed at the
same time. Be sure they are down
far enough to engage the lock.

- Once the housing is closed, check the o-ring seal.
Check the gap between the housing back and the housing. It
should be even all the way around the housing.
Look through the clear plastic back at the o-ring. You should see
a darkened area where the o-ring is compressed against the
housing back. If you do not see an even black compression seal
all the way around the back, open the lid snaps, reseat the
housing back and close the lid snaps. Visually check the seal again.

1. Pull out on each housing control until it stops. This will get the
controls out of the way for installing the camera.
2. Remove the back from the housing. The mounting tray for the
camera is secured to the housing back. Position the camera on
the tray, and using a coin or screwdriver (preferred), secure it
with the mounting bolt which threads into the camera’s tripod
socket.
CCAAUUTTIIOONN::
Some camera tripod socket threads are plastic. The mounting
tray bolt is metal. Do not cross thread or over tighten as you
may damage the camera tripod socket threads.
3. RAISE the camera flash. This must be done before closing the
housing.
