Installation and Use
Removing the Standard Viewnder
1. Align the long, thin edge of the tool with the slots in the
standard viewnder.
2. Gently rotate the tool counter-clockwise to loosen and
remove the viewnder. If additional leverage is required, a
screwdriver may be inserted in the tool. Apply downward
pressure on the tool to keep it from slipping out of the
slots while rotating.
3. Store the standard viewnder in a cool, dry location.
Attaching the Magnied Viewnder
1. Check that the o-ring, sealing surface, and threads
are clean and free of debris. It is not recommended to
lubricate the o-ring prior to installation.
2. Thread the viewnder clockwise into the housing back by
hand.
3. From the inner side of the housing back, align the narrow
end of the tool with the notches in the threaded end of the
viewnder.
4. Orient the viewnder to the landscape position to
correspond with the camera’s viewnder. Hold in this
position from the outside of the housing while completing
the next step.
5. Turn the tool counter-clockwise to tighten. The o-ring
will form a solid, dark line as it compresses and forms a
waterproof seal.

Testing the Housing
1. Assemble the housing without a camera installed.
2. Submerge the housing in fresh water for several minutes.
3. Remove the housing from water and dry the outside of
the housing with a clean, lint-free cloth.
4. Look through the back of the housing for signs that water
has entered the housing. Signs include fogging or water
droplets.
5. We recommend making at least one dive without a
camera installed to ensure waterproof operation.
