CAMERA BACKDOORS 
Your HERO+ camera comes with two types of backdoors.
The Standard Backdoor makes the housing 
waterproof to 131’ (40m). Use this door to protect 
the camera from water, dir t, sand and other 
environmental hazards. This backdoor reduces 
wind noise at speeds greater than 100mph.
The Skeleton Backdoor is not waterproof. This 
backdoor provides enhanced cooling and allows 
more direct access to the microphone. Use this 
backdoor only when sand, excessive dir t/dust, 
and water damage are not a risk. This backdoor   
is also recommended for use inside vehicles.
For instructions on changing backdoors, see Camera Housing  (page 
43).
