Caring for the Rino

Cleaning the Case

Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) using

a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution and then

wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that can

damage plastic components.

Cleaning the Screen

Clean the Rino screen using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth.

Use water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner if

needed. If these are used, apply the liquid to a cloth, and

then gently wipe the screen with the moistened cloth.

Water Immersion

The Rino

is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7.

It can withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30

minutes. Prolonged immersion can cause damage to the

unit. After immersion, be certain to wipe the unit clean of

moisture and allow to air dry before reuse or charging.

Storage

Do not store the Rino where prolonged exposure to

temperature extremes can occur (such as in the trunk of

a car) as permanent damage can result. User information,

such as waypoints and routes, are retained in the unit’s

memory without the need for external power.
Long-term Battery Storage: The charging capacity

of all rechargeable batteries decreases over time. The

normal decrease in capacity of lithium-ion batteries can

be accelerated by exposure to elevated temperatures.

Storing a fully charged battery for more than three

months at high temperatures can significantly reduce its

recharging capacity. Before storage, charge the battery

to approximately 50% of capacity and store in a cool dry

location where temperatures are not expected to exceed

typical household levels. Do not store a fully depleted

battery. Fully charge the battery again before using with

the Rino.
