2.2 Lens Installation/Removal
- To install the lens: Align the magnetic points on the lens with the corresponding points on the goggle frame. The magnets will guide the lens into place. Ensure a secure fit around the entire perimeter.

2.3 Battery Installation and Charging
- Charging: Connect the provided charging cable to the battery pack and a suitable USB power source. Charge the battery fully before first use.

3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Powering On/Off the Heated Lens

3.2 Adjusting Goggle Fit
Adjust the goggle strap to achieve a snug, comfortable fit around your head or helmet. The goggle should sit securely on your face without creating pressure points or obstructing vision.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning the Lens
- Use only a soft, non-abrasive cloth (preferably a microfiber goggle bag) to clean the lens.
- Avoid harsh chemicals, paper towels, or abrasive materials, as these can scratch the lens coating.
- For stubborn dirt, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Do not submerge the goggle or lens in water.
4.2 Storage
Store your goggles in a protective case or bag when not in use to prevent scratches and damage. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Detach the battery pack if storing for extended periods.
5. Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Lens fogging | Heated lens not active, extreme temperature difference, fan obstruction. | Ensure heated lens is powered on. Check battery charge. Clear any debris from the integrated fan. |
| Short battery life | Incomplete charge, extreme cold, prolonged use. | Ensure battery is fully charged before use. Carry a spare battery for extended trips. Battery performance may decrease in very cold conditions. |
| Battery pack not staying shut | Improper closure, faulty latch mechanism. | Ensure the battery pack is closed correctly. If the latch is faulty, contact 509 customer support for assistance. |
| Goggle feels too cold on face | Air leakage around frame, improper fit with helmet/balaclava. | Adjust goggle strap and position to minimize gaps. Ensure proper integration with helmet and balaclava for optimal warmth. |
