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.
