CAUTION: The life of a T-Seal is typically one (1) year. Contact H2O Audio
for spare T-Seals or a maintenance kit. Always remember to reinstall the
T-Seal before next use. Do not expose the housing to extreme heat, such
as the inside of a hot car, or in hot direct sunlight, such as on a beach, or
boat deck. Doing so may cause damage and subsequent flooding.
CAUTION: The housing is succeptible to internal condensation with
extreme temperature fluctuations. Use above 105°F(40C) can result in
internal condensation. When used in temperatures below freezing, frost
will appear on the interior of the housing.
CAUTION: Do not store housing in the following environments:
* Solvents or other chemical fumes
* High humidity
* High Ozone
* Extreme temperature fluctuations
Storing the housing in these conditions may lead to a damaged housing,
causing it to leak.
Rinse the EXTERIOR of the system in fresh water after EACH use:
1. Make sure the housing is securely closed with headphones attached.
2. Soak in clean fresh water for 30 minutes.
3. Rinse the entire system with freshwater
4. Completely dry the entire exterior of the system using a clean soft

8. Connecting the Headphones
TM
TM
The SealTight Connector is what keeps your audio connection safe and
dry underwater. It is designed specifically to create a seal around the
H2O Audio Series Waterproof Headphones (sold separately). Using any
other headphones will not have a complete waterproof connection, and
reduces the waterproof rating to water-resistant.
1. To create a waterproof connection, align the 3.5mm stereo plug on the
headphones with the stereo jack of the housing.
2. Insert the headphones into the stereo jack of the housing, ensuring
that the plug mates securely into the SealTight Connector.
TM
CAUTION: The SV Series Headphones do not fit with the SealTight Connector boot
featured on the H2O Audio Series housings. If your headphones have a connector
that looks like the one shown below, you can not use them with this housing.
