Product Care & Maintenance
In order to help get years of trouble free service with your FOXPRO game call, it is strongly
recommended that you read and understand the following points. Many of these are
considered proactive or preventative.
Avoid exposure to all precipitation and moisture. Whether you are storing your FOXPRO game
call or decoy away for the summer or just having some down time from calling, it is highly
recommended that you thoroughly inspect the unit for any signs of moisture. Moisture
(perhaps from rain, snow, condensation, or other) can potentially enter the unit or the battery
compartment and cause some serious problems. Proper care should be taken to mitigate the
introduction of (or potential for introduction of) moisture into the machine and make sure that
no moisture is present during storage. Moisture can quickly lead to corrosion, electrical shorts,
and even rust—all of which can possibly render the unit damaged and out of warranty. This
type of damage is preventable. For example, if you are operating in rainy, wet conditions, it is
recommended that you place the unit inside of a large plastic freezer storage bag or use a
water/weatherproof deployment bag to keep water from getting to it. When storing the unit
for prolonged periods, be sure that you keep it in a dry location not susceptible to drawing
moisture.
Remove batteries prior to storage or extended periods of inactivity! All batteries, whether
alkaline or rechargeable, should be removed from the game calls, decoys, and remote controls
prior to storage or periods of inactivity. Batteries that are left inside of electronic devices can
leak over time as the chemicals start to break down. Damages caused by this can be very severe
and potentially destroy the electrical components. To prevent this from happening, simply
remove all batteries from all devices before you put them away. Keep in mind; damage caused
by battery leakage is not a warranty issue.
Periodically charge your rechargeable batteries when not in use! Rechargeable batteries will
not last forever. To help maximize the overall life of your rechargeable batteries, we
recommend that you periodically charge them up, perhaps once a month or once every other
month, to keep them fresh. Batteries that are left uncharged can enter into a state of deep
discharge. Batteries in this state can, at times, no longer accept a charge and result in
