Safety precautions

Please carefully read and follow the following precautions and recommendations:

Improper transportation, handling or use of this housing might cause a flood or a

malfunction. Follow all recommendations stated in the next sections of this

manual.

Never remove, change a port or open the housing in a location where sand or

similar foreign material might come in contact with an O-ring. Be wary of strong

winds as they could potentially be carrying sand or other harmful particulate

matter.

Always perform a simple preventive seal test without the camera inside after doing

maintenance on the housing.

Non-authorized use of third-party accessories, as well as modifications and/or

alterations not specifically authorized by Aquatica may affect performance, cause

poor functioning of the controls or impair the sealing integrity of the housing.

Always handle the ports carefully. Protect them when not in use to avoid scratching

the acrylic or glass surface of ports and windows.

Always confirm that the ports remain properly attached before rinsing the housing.

When rinsing without a wired strobe, confirm that the bulkhead strobes connectors

are sealed with their plug.

Never jump into the water with the housing. Have the system handed to you after

you have made your entry or have it lowered to you on a rope.

Never handle the housing by grabbing the port, or if using one, the Aqua View

finder.

Make sure that boat staff are familiar with these procedures and advise them to

manipulate the housing by using the grips provided with the housing.

Housing preparation

Follow these steps to prepare your A7RIII housing for use:

STEP 1: Assemble the grips onto your housing using the provided screws (2) and Allen key.

STEP 2: If you are adding any shoes, brackets or ball mounts onto your housing, mount

them using the intended ¼-20 UNC threaded holes. You can use the threaded

holes on the handle grips (#1,#2), the top one (#3) or the bottom ones (#4) for

your tripod.
