Caring for the Unit
The case is constructed of high quality materials and does not
require user maintenance, except cleaning.
Cleaning the Case
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) using a
cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution and then wipe
dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that may damage
plastic components.
Cleaning the Screen
The unit’s lens is coated with a special anti-reflective coating
that is sensitive to skin oils, waxes and abrasive cleaners.
Cleaners containing ammonia, alcohol, abrasives, or anti-
grease detergents will harm the anti-reflective coating. It is
important to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens cleaner
(that is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings) and a
clean, lint-free cloth.
Water Immersion
The unit is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7. It can
withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes.
Prolonged submersion can cause damage to the unit. After
submersion, be certain to wipe and air dry the unit before
reuse.
