2. Setup and Installation
Installing the silicone protection case is a straightforward process. Ensure your remote control is clean and free of debris before installation.
- Prepare the Remote Control: Ensure the XP Deus or ORX remote control is powered off and clean. Remove any existing dust or dirt from the surface.
- Align the Case: Carefully align the silicone case with the remote control. The case is designed to fit precisely, with cutouts for buttons, screen, and ports.
- Gently Apply: Starting from one end, gently stretch the silicone case over the remote control. Work your way around, ensuring all edges and corners are properly seated within the case. It may feel tight, which is normal for a secure fit.
- Check for Proper Fit: Once installed, ensure that all buttons are accessible and responsive, and the screen is clearly visible through the silicone. Verify that no parts of the remote control are pinched or misaligned.

3. Operating Instructions
The silicone case is designed to protect your remote control without impeding its functionality. You can operate your Deus or ORX remote control as usual with the case installed.
- Button Access: The case features molded button covers that allow full tactile feedback and access to all remote control functions.
- Screen Visibility: The clear silicone material is designed to maintain screen visibility. In some bright light conditions or with polarized sunglasses, minor glare or reduced clarity may be experienced. Adjust the screen angle or backlight settings on your remote control if needed.
- Port Access: All necessary ports for charging and connecting accessories remain accessible through precise cutouts in the case.
Important Note:
- This silicone case provides protection against dust, dirt, and minor splashes. It is not designed for underwater use and does not make the remote control waterproof.
- Keep away from water. Do not expose to static electricity.
4. Maintenance
Regular cleaning of your silicone case will help maintain its appearance and protective qualities.
- Cleaning: To clean the silicone case, remove it from the remote control. Wash it with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before re-installing.
- Dirt Adherence: Silicone can attract dust and lint. Regular cleaning will mitigate this.
- Storage: When not in use, store the case in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
5. Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Screen difficult to read through case. | Glare from bright light, polarized sunglasses, or slight haziness of silicone. | Adjust the angle of the remote control. Increase screen backlight on the remote. Clean the case and remote screen thoroughly. |
| Dirt or lint sticking to the case. | Static electricity or environmental dust. | Remove the case and wash with mild soap and water. Ensure it is completely dry before re-installing. Avoid highly dusty environments if possible. |
| Case feels too tight or difficult to install. | New silicone can be stiff; improper alignment. | Ensure correct alignment before applying force. Gently stretch the silicone over the remote, working from one end. The tight fit is intentional for secure protection. |
