5.3 Cleaning & Storage.
The body & lid of the housing are made of 6061 Aluminum and Acrylic respectively. 6061
Aluminum is selected for its outstanding strength stiffness, hardness and toughness, While Acrylic
for its crystal clear transparency and high gloss surface. Both of them have good resistance to
weathering, although long-term exposure to sunlight should be avoided. Normal operating
temperature range is 3°C to 36°C (Storage temperature: -10°C to 50°C)
It is good practice to rinse off your housing with fresh water after every dive. Avoid to exposure to
fine sand. After a series of 10 or more dives, e.g. after a dive holiday, it is recommended to
immerse the housing for 2-3 hours in warm water to dissolve any salt deposits that may have built
up. No chemical cleaners should be used.
Important : For long term storage please remove the main closure o-rings from body.
5.4 Transportation.
Please protect the housing during transportation. It is recommended to remove the handle, and
shutter extension, and wrap the camera in foam or bubble wrap.
5.5 Accidents
The impact resistance of the housing is excellent. However after an accident thealignment of the
housing may have been altered. Therefore in the event of your housing suffering an impact force,
e.g. being dropped, it is essential that you do not use the housing for diving. Please return the
housing immediately for service and put a note inside to indicate the nature of the accident, so
that the severity can be assessed.
