continually flash red until the temperature changes to within the required range.

before storing for the off-season.

Modes of Operation
The Abom HEET model heated lens goggle supports two modes of operation:
Heat On Demand (temporary de-fogging)
Quickly press the power button on the right side of the lens when fogging occurs. The LED will turn blue
and the lens heater will turn on. The heater will remain on for 7 minutes at which time the heater and
LED will turn off to conserve battery power. If fogging returns, press the power button and repeat as
necessary. To exit On Demand Mode and turn the goggle heater off, press and hold the power button until
the LED turns off.
Always On (continuous anti-fog protection)
Press and hold the power button located on the right side of the lens for 1.5 seconds. The LED will turn
orange and the goggle will stay on until the user turns the goggle off. In this mode the goggle automatically determines when to apply heat to the lens depending on the environmental conditions as detected
by the internal sensor. To exit Always On mode and turn the goggle heater off, press and hold the power
button again until the LED turns off.
Heat Boost Activation
Should fogging occur while in either Heat On Demand or Always On mode, a quick press of the button will
activate a 40 second boost of heat. The LED will flash quickly three times whenever the user activates
the heat boost.

frame retention pins on one side of the
lens into the rectangular receptacles in the
chassis.
