We suggest that you read this instruction booklet thoroughly
before use. If you are new to underwater photography, be sure
to read the General and Photo Tips sections.
We also suggest that you read your camera manual thoroughly
to have a full understanding of each camera function.

OTTEESS::
- TTL Flash NOT available when camera is in “M” Manual mode.
There is no TTL flash even with Canon's own flash in the camera
"M" mode. Manual power settings can be selected with the
multi-control button on the back of the camera. The strobe
should still be left in TTL to take advantage of this feature.
- Leave the housing hotshoe disconnected when using an EV
manual controller. If using an EV controller in “M” Manual
mode, set the EV controller to “non-Pre-flash”.
- When multiple exposure (continuous shooting) mode is used,
the external flash will not fire. This is normal and also happens
with Canon external speedlights.

To open, push Lid Snap
Lock forward and lift as
shown. Keep pressure
on the Lid Snap so it
does not fly open
quickly.
Some lid snaps have a
lot of spring tension once they go over center, so keep a firm
grip on the lid snap. Lid Snaps may be opened one at a time.
