Battery Installation, Cleaning and Maintenance Notes
Unscrew the battery compartment fastening screw (see next page), and install 2 AA
alkaline, lithium or NiMh rechargeable batteries. Lithium batteries are recommended for
cold weather conditions and longer battery life before replacement. Refer to the polarity
markings inside the battery compartment to ensure the batteries are positioned correctly.
When removing or replacing batteries, be sure the ONIX has been powered off rst. To
reduce the chance for damage from battery leakage, remove the batteries when storing the
unit for periods over six months.
The ONIX is designed to be waterproof to a depth of 1 meter (IPX7 rating), however it
is recommended that the user opens and checks the battery compartment following any
submersion or prolonged exposure to rain, snow, etc. Any moisture observed inside the
battery compartment or on the exterior of the batteries should be dried off immediately and
completely. Prolonged submersion (over 30 minutes) and/or to water depths greater than 1
meter can cause damage to the unit.
If the ONIX exterior becomes dirty, clean it with a soft cloth dampened with a mild
detergent solution, then wipe dry. To avoid possible scratches, a (dry) micro ber cloth is
ideal for cleaning the display screen. Do not use chemical solvents or cleaners of any type
on the ONIX unit’s exterior, battery compartment, or display, as these may damage plastic
components.
