Wake the defuse panel by pressing any button, then press#. The light will blink
green if the panel is in range. If it bli nks red, move the panel closer to Ramos.
Range check
The defuse panel should be placed where you want to get your day started,
whether its the kitchen to make coffee or the bathroom to wake up. It's easier to
stay out of bed if you're close to your morning routine.
Defuse panel placement
The defuse panel uses two AAA batteries. If the panel shows a red light when
woken, the batteries need to be replaced.
Batteries
The Ramos is constructed from wood sealed with shellac, then coated with a
lacquer clear coat for a maintenance free finish. Avoid damaging the finish by
keeping your Ramos away from sharp objects and liquids.
Care
The Nixie Ramos uses 4 original Soviet-era nixie tubes. In the case that you have
to replace a tube, follow this procedure:
1. Unplug the Nixie Ramos while it is still on. Wait 6 hours for the battery to fully
drain. If you don’t do this, you risk blowing the internal safety fuse and
rendering your Nixie Ramos useless.
2. Wiggle (gently) out the used nixie tube.
3. Wiggle (gently) in the new one. Do not force the tube.
Nixie tubes contain mercury. Wear gloves when doing this and dispose
of the old tube in accordance to your local laws.
Keep children away from this
product.
In the case of a shattered tube, wear gloves, then unplug the unit and
turn it off using the switch rod. Carefully collect all the broken glass.
Do not attempt to replace a shattered tube.
