5. Position controls for mating by pushing them inward and aligning the control

heads with the camera.

a Caution: The safety latches must be

closed

and

locked

prior to use to avoid

opening underwater.

It is your responsibility to make sure the latches are

secure and locked, and in good condition. DO NOT enter the water with a

faulty latch. Gates will replace a damaged or faulty latch free of charge.

6. Carefully inspect parting line between front and rear. If this line is not even and free

of gaps all the way around, remove back and find the reason why. (O-ring out of

place, hand strap interference, etc.)

FAILURE TO DO THIS MAY RESULT IN A

WET CAMERA!

a Tip: A simple test of the main seal is to try and slip a piece of paper past the o-ring.

A properly sealed housing will have no gaps through which the paper can pass.

7. Check the Port. It should be seated flush on the front bulkhead and no uneven gaps

should exist. If a gap is found, remove the port and re-install per directions in the

‘Port’ section on page 13 of this guide.

8. Power up camera and check all controls. Check all controls for the proper

operation before entering water. The following section describes each control in detail

for proper operation.

Controls

General Information

Your Gates housing utilizes 100% mechanical controls to provide you the most reliable

operation possible. They are all rotational in nature: that is, there are no push buttons

that can become sticky or depress under pressure. The controls have no batteries to

change and require little maintenance.

The housing controls are designed by Gates engineers, to the extent possible, to feel and

behave like the camera controls. You can also verify operation on nearly every function

on the external monitor. With time and use, the housing controls will become quite

familiar and you’ll find operating them requires similar skill as the actual camera controls.

To help acquaint you with the housing controls, Gates recommends reviewing each

control individually, how it actuates the corresponding camera control, and actually

operating it to get a ‘feel’ for the control. You can view all front housing controls with the

housing open. After reviewing all controls, perform a ‘simulated’ dive by operating the

controls as you would in the water.

One final note about controls: when operating any control out of water,

you may need

to press the control against the housing, into the position it would naturally

find while under water pressure.

The controls will operate properly in this position.
