For air travel, rely on the automatic pressure compensation valve to equalize pressure differences.

Usage recommendations

For optimal protection, place fragile components in the central foam cavities and avoid overpacking. Clean the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use abrasive cleaners. Verify latches and the valve before each transport and store the case in a dry place when not in use.
