MAINTENANCE & CARE
• Extreme temperatures, vibrations, and shock should be avoided to prevent damage to
the units.
• Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring
agents—they may mark and damage the displays and casings.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.
Replace with new batteries only, and of recommended size.
• Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the units. Contact
La Crosse Technology for Repairs.
