• SX500 while using Polarized Sunglasses: All outdoor readable Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD’s) have varying types
of polarizing filters that are designed to maximize the readability of the LCD display in various lighting conditions.
Each manufacturer of the LCD uses the type of polarization filter that is optimized for their particular display and
the normal orientation the display will be used. The SX500 LCD has filter layers designed that provide the best
performance for the LCD. Major brands of sunglasses are typically polarized in order to reduce glare reflected from
horizontal surfaces such as land and water. Some aviation sunglasses may not be polarized because of potential
readability issues with cockpit instrumentation LCD’s. The SX500 LCD has been tested with all major brands of
polarized sunglasses and is visible outdoors with those sunglasses. There may be a slight apparent darkening of
the display when turned horizontally depending on the type of polarization direction of the respective sunglasses.
Most sunglasses are vertically polarized, however some are polarized 45 degrees. Each will behave slightly differently
with the SX500 display. Various SkyCaddie products may have different LCD’s and polarization methods optimized for
the respective product LCD.

into the water hazard while looking for your ball. If you do get your SkyCaddie SX400 wet, do not attempt to dry
it with an external heat source like a microwave oven or hair dryer. SkyCaddie SX400 devices that do manage to get
