1. Read warnings in manual (pages 6-8).
2. If you have any questions after reading
this manual or problems regarding the
SeaLife digital camera, housing or
accessories follow these instructions:
Do not contact dealer; do this:
• Check trouble shooting guide in this
manual or on the SeaLife website
www.sealife-cameras.com
• If this does not solve the problem
contact SeaLife Customer Service:
USA (856) 866-9192. For other
countries, contact the Sealife national
distributor. For a complete list, see
the above website.
3. Use only the following AA batteries:
• SeaLife Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH)
1800mAh or higher rechargeable
batteries. Carefully follow charging
instructions.
• Lithium non-rechargeable batteries.
Lithium batteries last the longest of
all batteries but they are expensive
and they are not rechargeable.
• We do not recommend using Alkaline
batteries due to their short battery
life, however new high-energy alka-
line batteries, like Duracell Ultra, have
a longer battery life and can be used
with the SeaLife digital camera. Even
high-energy alkaline batteries do not
last as long as SeaLife Ni-MH
batteries. Do not use standard alka-
line batteries.
• Replace batteries when battery
power status indicator on camera is
down one bar.
• Turn camera power or LCD monitor
OFF when not using camera to
preserve battery power.
• Always use freshly charged batteries.
Batteries can discharge at room
temperature up to 10% per day.
Store batteries in plastic bag or con-
tainer in refrigerator or cool, dry
place.
4. Use only the following brands
Compact Flash memory cards:
• SanDisk, Kingston, Lexar, Panasonic,
PYN, Ritek and Pretec (registered
trademarks of respective companies).
5. Keep main O-Ring and housing
perfectly clean.
• Clean housing and main O-ring with
fresh water after every use.
• Do not remove O-ring. Do not
grease.
• Store camera and housing only after
careful cleaning and when totally dry.
6. Never let any moisture or dirt get
inside housing when opening.
• Only open and load the housing in
dry cool air, such as inside an air-
conditioned room.
7. For good underwater pictures you
need:
• Clear water conditions.
• Control your buoyancy before taking
picture.
• Get as close as possible to subject
(ideal distance is 2’ to 6’).
• Make it a habit to use the SeaLife
Macro Lens/Filter for superb details
and vibrant colors.
• For best underwater pictures, use
External Flashes and snap-on Macro
or wide-angle lenses.
