Important Notices
»This housing requires a compatible DLM lens port for
waterproof operation. The housing is not waterproof without a
DLM lens port attached.
»Do not pull the shutter trigger without a camera installed. You
may accidentally detach or damage the control spring.
»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only
system in the tank. Accidental damage may occur 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.
»If you will be using the system in strong surf it is
recommended to draw a vacuum on the housing using the
optional vacuum kit (sold separately).

Tray Mounts
This housing features two 1/4-20 threaded tray mounts on the bottom
of the housing. The spacing between the tray mounts is 3” (76.2 mm).
Optional tray with handles and mounting hardware are sold separately.
It is recommended to detach and thoroughly rinse the tray mounts,
tray, and mounting hardware, with fresh water routinely during
continuous use and prior to storage.
Accessory Ports
This housing features a spare accessory port which may be used
for the attachment of optional accessories. This port accepts ttings
designed for a 1/2” through or 1/2-20 threaded hole.
The optional Vacuum Kit # 47012 may be installed in place of the side
accessory port. A hand pump with gauge allows you to draw a vacuum
on the house to simulate water pressure and check for leaks prior to
entering the water.
Visit ikelite.com for an updated list of compatible products.
»Do not remove or loosen the accessory port plug unless you
are installing a compatible accessory.
Setting Up Your Camera
Pre-Installation Checklist
1. Insert a fully charged camera battery.
2. Insert a properly formatted memory card.
3. Remove any attached lanyard or neck strap.
Camera Settings
• Set AF Illuminator to “Off.”
10
• Set FINDER/MONITOR to “Monitor (Manual).”
• Set Red Eye Reduction to “Off” when using an external strobe.
Exposure Settings
Refer to the Cheat Sheets in the Photo School section of our website
for recommendations on exposure settings for a wide variety of
shooting situations:
https://www.ikelite.com/blogs/cheat-sheets
Power Save
It is recommended to set the Power Save Start Time to the shortest
interval that makes sense for your shooting.
Instead of turning the camera off and on to conserve battery, the
camera will automatically sleep after the pre-set interval. To wake the
camera, simply perform an operation such as pressing the shutter
button halfway down.
Back Button Focus
Back button focus takes some adjustment to get used to but can be
very valuable in a variety of shooting scenarios.
Use the camera’s custom settings menu to set AF w/ shutter to “Off.”
The AF ON button is conveniently accessed by a thumb lever on the
side of the housing. Instead of half-pressing the shutter to obtain focus
and lock focus, press the AF ON button.
For super macro photography, you can use this technique instead
of a manual focus gear. Press AF ON to lock focus at the minimum
focusing distance of your lens. Then move slightly in or out until the
subject is in focus.
