Troubleshooting
Case feels stuck and won't open
The automatic purge valve may be balancing pressure; give it a moment to equalize or check if the gasket has created a tight seal due to a significant pressure change.
Water found inside after submersion
Ensure the O-ring gasket is seated properly in its groove and free of dirt, sand, or hair, which can compromise the seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your case, consider purchasing custom foam inserts or padded dividers to ensure your specific equipment is snug and immobilized. When closing the case, ensure the rubber O-ring gasket is free of debris or dust, as this is essential to maintaining the watertight seal. For cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth; avoid harsh solvents that could damage the HPX polymer resin. Periodically check the stainless steel hardware for any signs of salt buildup and rinse with fresh water if the case has been exposed to marine environments.
