Important Notices

»This housing requires a compatible Lens Port for waterproof

operation. The housing is not waterproof without a Lens Port

attached.

»To prevent salt build-up and sticking controls, submerge the

empty housing in clean, fresh water. Operate the controls

several times each while underwater to ush out any residue.

»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only

system in the tank. Most catastrophic oods happen when the

user walks away from a housing while it is in the rinse tank.

»Do not use alcohol, cleaning agents, spray lubricants, Rain-X,

or other solvents on the housing or lens port. Use of an

incompatible chemical compound can damage the plastic and

o-rings, and may result in leaking.

»A bulkhead cap or sync cord must be attached to the housing

for waterproof operation. Never submerge the housing without

either a sync cord or waterproof bulkhead cap attached.

»This housing is only compatible with the Panasonic DC-

GX9K, DC-GX9M and DC-GX9 cameras as shipped by the

manufacturer. Unless otherwise noted, this housing does

not accommodate the use of add-on grips, battery grips,

eyepieces, LCD covers, or other accessories.

Accessory Port

Your housing features one 1/2-20 threaded Accessory Port which

may be used for attachment of factory optional or aftermarket housing

accessories. We recommend Vacuum Kit # 47012 which allows you to

pull a vacuum on the housing to simulate pressure at depth and check

for leaks prior to entering the water.

DO NOT remove the Accessory Hole Plug unless you are installing a

compatible accessory such as factory optional Vacuum Kit # 47012

Visit ikelite.com for an updated list of factory optional accessories or

Use the following steps to replace an Accessory Port Hole Plug with

an accessory tting to use an optional accessory:

1. Remove the Hole Plug using an 11/16 inch open end wrench.

2. Check the accessory tting o-ring sealing area. If an o-ring is not

present, use the Hole Plug o-ring. Lightly lubricate o-ring with

Ikelite Lubricant. Use ONLY Ikelite lubricant. Other manufacturer

lubricants can cause the o-ring to swell. Check o-ring and o-ring

sealing area. Both should be clean and free of hair, sand, or other

debris.

3. Carefully screw in and tighten accessory tting. The accessory port

features a 1/2-20 threaded hole. Make sure your tting is the same

thread pattern. DO NOT cross-thread. DO NOT overtighten.

NOTICE: Your Ikelite housing warranty DOES NOT extend to

cover the attachment of aftermarket housing accessories by 3rd

parties. Warranty DOES cover factory optional accessories attached

by certied Ikelite service technicians.

DO NOT remove the Accessory Port Hole Plug unless you are

installing a compatible accessory like Vacuum Kit # 47012.

- Manual Flash can be set on the camera if desired: S or M mode

must be used to ensure that redeye reduction mode can be selected.

Select redeye reduction mode. When the shutter release is pressed,

2 short bursts will be red by the ash with a noticeable delay (about

1/3 of a second) before the main ash is red. After that, you are now

in manual ash mode and the lightning bolt ash ready indicator will

disappear from the monitor, and there will be no more preashes.

To go back to TTL mode, power the strobe off and then on again,

then change the camera from red eye reduction back to “ll-in ash.”

NOTE: These are recommended “initial” camera settings to get

you started. Please adjust your camera as needed for each unique

shooting situation. Settings not mentioned should be set to the user’s

preference.

Setting Up Your Housing

Opening the Housing

1. Push the lid snap lock forward and start to lift the curved end away

from the housing.

2. Lid snaps are designed to provide enough force to compress the

o-ring for a proper seal. Keep rm pressure against the lid snap

while lifting it away.

Lid Snap Lock

3. Repeat with remaining lid snap(s).

4. Remove the housing back.

Inserting the Camera

1. Remove any lanyard or neck strap which may be attached to the

camera.

2. Check to see whether the camera’s lens will t through the port

opening of the housing. If not, the lens will need to be removed

from the camera body and reattached AFTER the camera body is

installed in the housing.

3. Remove the Camera Mounting Plate from the housing.

4. Pull the LCD screen away from the camera slightly to allow the

Camera Mounting Plate to attach properly to the bottom of the

camera.

5. Line up the Mounting Screw with the Camera Tripod Socket. Use

a coin or at head screwdriver (preferred) to tighten the mounting

plate to the camera. Mounting Plate should tighten ush against the

bottom of the camera.

Push the Hotshoe forward until it is unable to go any farther. The

Hotshoe must be pushed all the way forward to make proper

contact with the camera and provide TTL operation. Make sure

the Hotshoe wire does not interfere with any housing control

operations.
