1. Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing. We recommend
you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite products 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.

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 onto the housing.
The o-ring should touch the
housing 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
e
xtended and place the lid
snap into the 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.
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.

Once the housing has been closed, make sure the housing controls
line up with the camera’s 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.

The camera’s rotary multi selector is made up of the rotating ring
and the OK button. When selecting menus or pictures, you can
either press the rotating ring up, down, left, or right or rotate it.
When choosing from numerous menu items or pictures, rotating
the ring is recommended for easy scrolling, and faster operation.
T
he housing’s rotary multi selector control uses a paw to turn the
rotating ring. Note that the white dot on the face of the housing’s
control knob indicates the paw location. When underwater the
water pressure will push the housing’s rotary multi selector in and
m
ake contact with the camera’s rotating ring if the paw is over the
ring. It is recommended that the paw be turned to the 3 o’clock
position when not being used so the paw is Not in contact with
the rotating ring. To use the housings rotary multi selector control
underwater you will need to pull out on the control, locate the
paw over the camera’s rotating ring, push in and rotate the ring.
You may have to do this several times depending on the length of
the camera menu. It is recommended you practice using this
control above water.
