How to maintain the housing
- Rinse the housing exterior thoroughly with running fresh water after every use. Depress buttons and rotate knobs/dials repeatedly in fresh water to eliminate trapped salt water or debris. Dry the housing and Lens Port with a soft, clean cloth to avoid water spotting and damage.
- To clean the Lens Port Glass, use a mild soap solution or lens cleaner. Do not rinse the inside of port glass. Do not use alcohol or window cleaner on the Lens Port Glass. In order to better inspect, position, clean or lubricate the Housing
- Main Seal O-ring, carefully remove the required O-ring by using the provided AOI O-Ring Remover. Clean the Main Seal O-ring and its O-ring groove by using a microfiber cloth only. Use AOI O-Ring Remover to clean the O-Ring groove. Do not use cleaning substances other than fresh water. Remove sand, dirt, hair or fibers that can prevent a proper housing seal.
- To lubricate O-rings, apply a small amount of silicone grease (AOI SIGR-5) on your fingertips, gently pull the O-ring through the fingertips. This will lightly coat the entire O-ring with silicone grease. Only use the AOI Silicone Grease supplied or those approved by AOI. Using other brands of silicone grease may damage the O-ring. Do not over stretch the O-ring.
- Do not leave the camera and housing in direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Heat may damage the camera and housing.
- Dry well and remove the camera prior to travel and storage.
- Store the housing in a cool and dry place.
IMPORTANT
- Wipe the housing dry and keep water away prior to opening the housing. Do not allow water to be in contact with the interior of the housing. This will cause irreparable damage to the Vacuum Analyzation and Wet Detection System (VWS) and other electronic/electrical components!
- When not using the housing, remove the Power Bank.
- Do Not flush the holes of the Depth Sensor with High-Pressure water.
