BoxWave ClearTouch ImpactShield Screen Protector User Manual
Compatible with Simrad NSS16 Evo3
1. Product Overview
The BoxWave ClearTouch ImpactShield is a high-quality, flexible film screen protector designed specifically for the Simrad NSS16 Evo3 marine display. It provides robust protection against scratches, impacts, and daily wear while maintaining the original clarity and touch sensitivity of your device's screen. This 2-pack ensures you have a spare protector or one for another compatible device.


2. Package Contents
Your BoxWave ClearTouch ImpactShield package includes:
- Two (2) BoxWave ClearTouch ImpactShield Screen Protectors
- One (1) Microfiber Cleaning Cloth
- One (1) Dust Removal Sticker
- One (1) Squeegee Card (for bubble removal)
3. Installation Guide
Follow these steps carefully for optimal installation of your screen protector:
- Prepare Your Workspace: Ensure you are in a clean, dust-free environment. Wash your hands thoroughly to avoid transferring oils to the screen or protector.
- Clean the Screen: Use the provided microfiber cleaning cloth to thoroughly wipe the Simrad NSS16 Evo3 screen. Ensure all smudges, fingerprints, and dirt are removed. For stubborn marks, a small amount of screen cleaner (not included) can be used, followed by drying with the cloth.
- Remove Dust: Use the dust removal sticker to dab the screen surface, lifting any remaining dust particles. Inspect the screen closely under good light to ensure it is completely free of dust.
- Peel Back Layer 1: Carefully peel back a small portion of the protective film labeled 'Layer 1' (or similar) from one end of the screen protector. Avoid touching the adhesive side.
- Align and Apply: Align the exposed adhesive edge of the screen protector with one edge of your device's screen. Once aligned, slowly and steadily lower the protector onto the screen, gradually peeling back 'Layer 1' as you go. Use the squeegee card to gently press down and smooth out the protector, pushing out any air bubbles towards the edges.
- Remove Bubbles: If bubbles remain, gently lift the nearest edge of the protector and reapply, using the squeegee to push the air out. For small bubbles, you can often push them to the edge with the squeegee.
- Remove Layer 2: Once the protector is fully adhered and free of bubbles, carefully peel off the top protective film labeled 'Layer 2' (or similar).

4. Operating Instructions
The ClearTouch ImpactShield is designed to be fully transparent and maintain the full functionality of your Simrad NSS16 Evo3 display. Once installed, no special operation is required. The protector works passively to:
- Protect Against Scratches: Its 9H hardness rating provides superior resistance to scratches from keys, sharp objects, and daily abrasion.
- Absorb Impacts: The flexible material is engineered to absorb and dissipate impact forces, reducing the risk of screen damage from accidental drops or bumps.
- Maintain Clarity: With 99% visibility, the protector ensures your screen's colors and resolution remain vibrant and clear, as if no protector is present.
- Preserve Touch Sensitivity: The ultra-thin design ensures that the touch response of your Simrad NSS16 Evo3 remains unaffected, allowing for seamless navigation and interaction.






5. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your ClearTouch ImpactShield, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth (like the included microfiber cloth) to gently wipe the screen protector. For smudges or fingerprints, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a screen-safe cleaning solution.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or ammonia-based solutions, as these can damage the protector's coating.
- Prevent Sharp Objects: While the protector offers 9H hardness, extreme pressure or very sharp objects can still cause damage. Avoid direct contact with sharp edges.
- Reinstallation: If the protector becomes misaligned or accumulates dust underneath, it can be carefully removed, cleaned, and reinstalled due to its reusable nature. Ensure the screen and the adhesive side of the protector are clean before reapplication.
6. Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bubbles under the protector | Trapped air during installation. | Use the squeegee card to push bubbles towards the nearest edge. For large bubbles, gently lift the protector near the bubble and reapply slowly, smoothing with the squeegee. |
| Dust particles under the protector | Screen not completely clean before application. | Carefully lift the protector from the nearest corner. Use the dust removal sticker to dab the dust particle off the screen and/or the adhesive side of the protector. Reapply. |
| Protector not adhering properly | Oils or residue on the screen; protector adhesive contaminated. | Remove the protector, thoroughly clean the device screen and the adhesive side of the protector (if reusable and not heavily contaminated). Reapply following installation steps. If adhesive is compromised, use the second protector from the pack. |
| Misalignment | Incorrect positioning during initial application. | Gently lift the protector and realign it. The ClearTouch ImpactShield is designed for reusability, allowing for adjustments. |
