Important Notices
»To prevent salt build-up and sticking controls, submerge the
empty housing in clean, freshwater. Operate the controls
several times each while underwater to ush out any residue.
»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only
system in the tank. Most catastrophic oods happen when the
user walks away from a housing while it is in the rinse tank.
»Do not use alcohol, cleaning agents, spray lubricants, Rain-X,
or other solvents on the housing or lens port. Use of an
incompatible chemical compound can damage the plastic and
o-rings, and may result in leaking.

»Do not remove the Accessory Port Hole Plug unless you are
installing a compatible accessory.
Your housing features an Accessory Port which may be used for

Installing an Accessory in the Accessory Port
»Do not remove the Accessory Port Hole Plug unless you are
installing a compatible accessory.
1. Remove the Hole Plug using an 11/16” open end wrench.
2. Check the accessory tting o-ring sealing area. Check o-ring and
housing o-ring sealing area. All should be clean and free of hair,
sand, or other debris.
3. Lightly lubricate o-ring with Ikelite lubricant. Use ONLY Ikelite
lubricant. Other manufacturer lubricants can cause the o-ring to
swell.
4. Carefully screw in and tighten accessory tting. The accessory port
features a 1/2-20 threaded hole. Make sure your tting is the same
thread pattern. DO NOT cross-thread. DO NOT overtighten.
5. After installing an accessory, pressure test the housing by diving
without a camera inside.
NOTICE: Your Ikelite housing warranty DOES NOT extend
to cover the attachment of aftermarket housing accessories by
3rd parties. Warranty DOES cover factory optional accessories
attached by certied Ikelite service technicians.

situation.
Setting Up Your Housing
Opening the Housing

4. Pull out on the housing control knobs to move them out of the way.
5. Insert the Mounting Plate into the slot on the inside bottom of the
housing. Push the camera all of the way forward until the back of
the Mounting Plate is ush with the back of the housing mount.
6. Pop up the ash before installing the camera into the housing
when triggering an external strobe. Once the camera is closed in
the housing, the ash CANNOT be raised.
Closing the Housing
1. Make sure the o-ring is clean and in its proper location on the back
of the housing. The main o-ring does not require lubricant to make
a seal.
2. Place the back onto the housing front.
3. Make sure no controls or wires are interfering with the o-ring or the
back of the housing.
4. Place each lid snap into the corresponding hook on the housing
back.

5. Push the lid snaps toward the housing until they are at against the
housing and the lock has engaged. Close opposing lid snaps at the
same time.
6. Check the o-ring seal. The o-ring should form a uniform, solid line
around the back of the housing. There will be a small, even gap
around the housing between the housing back and the housing
front.
Attaching a Fiber Optic Strobe
1. Check the end of the ber optic cord to ensure that it is clean and
smooth.
2. Ensure that the Fiber Optic Cord O-ring is in place. This o-ring
does not provide waterproong, however it does keep the ber optic
cord in place.
3. Attach one end of the ber optic cord into one of the ber optic
ports on the front of the housing. The connector is a press-t into
the ber optic port.
