For waterproof operation, ensure the waterproof cover on the side of the unit is pressed completely flush with the unit. The unit is IP67 waterproof rated, meaning it is immersible for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter (3 feet). It will typically withstand rain, snow, and being submerged in shallow water.

• DO NOT immerse the unit in water for extended periods.
• DO NOT immerse the unit in water deeper than 1 meter (about 3 feet).
• Ensure the cover and surrounding surfaces are completely dry before opening the cover to prevent moisture from damaging internal electronics.
• Keep the rubber cover free of dirt, sand, or other objects that can interfere with proper sealing. If the waterproof cover is not making a tight seal, water may enter the unit.
• Rinse with tap water after immersion in salt water or a swimming pool.
• DO NOT clean the unit with oily soaps or use chemicals or solvents. Clean with a damp cloth.
