IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT WATERPROOF OPERATION
For proper waterproof operation, make sure the waterproof cover on the side of the
unit is completely flush with the unit by pressing along the entire edge of the cover until
it is completely and securely in place.
The unit is IP67 waterproof rated, meaning it is immersible for up to 30 minutes at a
depth of 1 meter (3 feet). It will typically withstand rain, snow and being submersed in
shallow water. Longer duration or deeper immersion that exceeds the tested limits may
cause product failure and void the warranty.
DO NOT immerse the unit in water for extended periods.
DO NOT immerse the unit in water deeper than 1 meter (about 3 feet).
Make sure cover and surrounding surfaces are completely dry before opening cover to
prevent moisture from damaging the internal electronics.
Keep rubber cover free of dirt, sand, or other objects that can interfere with proper
sealing. If for any reason the waterproof cover is not making a tight waterproof seal
water may enter the unit.
Rinse with tap water after immersion in salt water or swimming pool.
DO NOT clean unit with oily soaps or use chemicals or solvents. Clean with damp cloth.
