4.1 Special note on responsibility for watertight integrity
Each housing is individually inspected and hydrostatically tested in the factory. The design of the
main piston O-ring seal is among the most reliable in the industry and the watertight integrity is
excellent. This special O-ring design provides a perfect seal even if there is any movement
between the body and lid due to change of ambient pressure. However please note that
responsibility for ensuring the integrity of the watertight seal lies entirely with the user. 10BAR
accepts no liability for damage to, or loss of any equipment used with, or placed inside the housing.
Users are highly recommended to carry out in-water test of the housings without installing of the
camera for their first dive, after change of new ports or alternation of any new configuration. The
test can be carried out by lowering the housing with ballast to the working depth or dive down to the
safe diving range.
4.2 Maintaining the O-ring Seal
If the main body to lid O-rings are not installed,
install the O-rings before diving. Their care and
maintenance are critical to the watertight integrity
of the housing. If the O-rings are contaminated, or
not already installed; inspect, grease and install
the O-rings according to the following guidelines.

The O-ring seal is the main barrier between the
water outside and the air space within the camera.
It is an effective barrier only if the seal is properly
maintained. The O-ring seal should be inspected
before every dive. The following information is
provided for your guidance in using and
maintaining the O-ring seal.
