CONGRATULATIONS ON TAKING THE FIRST STEP IN CHANGING THE WAY YOU HUNT—FOREVER.

WITH PROPER APPLICATION, YOUR OZONICS UNIT WILL ALLOW YOU TO DESTROY THE MAIN

DEFENSE OF THE GAME YOU PURSUE … ITS SENSE OF SMELL. HOW OZONICS WORKS IS

SCIENCE, IS PROVEN AND IT’S SIMPLE: YOUR OZONICS UNIT PRODUCES OZONE, WHICH WILL

ELIMINATE, ALTER AND REDUCE THE ODOR YOU EMIT DURING EVERY SECOND OF YOUR HUNT.

THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF ACTIVE SCENT CONTROL, AND THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF SUCCESS.

IF IT’S

NOT OZONICS

IT’S NOT ELIMINATION.

IMPORTANT: READ THE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE OPERATING OZONICS

The OzonicsTM ozone generator operates in excess of 10,000 volts.

Do not place ﬁngers or any metal object into fan inlet/outlet grilles. If dirt or debris gets into unit, use gentle compressed air to remove. If you cannot remove debris, or if the air cell or fan needs replacement, contact Ozonics for service.

Do not use Boost mode in any closed environment.

When using the Ozonics

ozone generator in a hunting enclosure, adequate ventilation is required to prevent

the build-up of ozone within the enclosure.

The Ozonics

ozone generator operates in an oxygen-rich environment. Do not use in vicinity of combustible gases.

Do not immerse Ozonics

in water. Use a clean, dry rag to remove external dirt and dust. Do not use chemicals

(e.g., gasoline, kerosene, acetone) to clean plastic.

Use only the rechargeable battery and charger supplied by Ozonics.

Ozone™ can be an irritant and powerful oxidizing agent. Like many products, ozone can be dangerous if used improperly. So, follow the instructions herein. Should you experience dry eyes or a sore, scratchy throat, turn the Ozonics

ozone generator off immediately and get fresh air. Please refer to ozone and battery Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for further information (available from Ozonics). Ozonics, LLC manufactures to meet or exceed Federal Safety Standards (e.g., NIOSH, OSHA, EPA, etc.) when used as directed.

THE ONLY SCENT CONTROL PRODUCT THAT

ACTIVELY ADDRESSES YOUR SCENT ZONE

The Ozonics ozone generator is the ﬁrst and only

in-the-ﬁeld ozone generator. Each Unit actively blankets

your scent with odor-destroying ozone. Unlike any other

scent control product, the Ozonics ozone generator actively

deals with the scent in your area between you and the deer or

other game animals, cleansing the air-stream in this scent zone so

game won’t smell you.

THE OZONICSTM OZONE GENERATOR ELECTRONICALLY CHANGES

OXYGEN (O

2) MOLECULES INTO OZONE (O3) MOLECULES

The OzonicsTM ozone generator produces ozone via corona discharge, con-

verting oxygen to ozone through the introduction of electricity. This ozone gas

is a very strong oxidizing agent that is commonly used to destroy odors and other

organic contaminants. The Ozonics

ozone generator projects the ozone downwind

with a quiet, built-in fan.

HEAVY, UNSTABLE OZONE MOLECULES FALL THROUGH SCENT ZONE

AND BOND WITH SCENT MOLECULES

Because ozone molecules are heavier than air, they disperse from the Ozonics ozone generator and

fall into your scent zone. And because ozone molecules are also extremely unstable, they instantly

bond with any molecules they encounter—your scent molecules—eliminating, altering, or reducing your

human odor to the point it is no longer distinguishable to game animals.

THE BOTTOM LINE: YOU WILL NOTICE A DRAMATIC REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF GAME

ANIMALS THAT SMELL YOU, DRASTICALLY INCREASING YOUR SUCCESS.

HOW TO USE

THE OZONICS

OZONE

GENERATOR FOR OPTIMAL

SCENT-DESTROYING PERFORMANCE

TREESTAND USE

1. Attach the tree mounting screw provided so the OzonicsTM ozone generator will be approximately 6 to 12 inches above the top of your head and facing at a slightly downward (30°) angle. The most effective use of the Ozonics

ozone generator is keeping your scent proﬁle as minimal as possible.

2. Connect the Ozonics

ozone generator to tree mount, ensuring that it is

facing downwind and that it gets proper air ﬂow.

3. Turn the Ozonics

ozone generator on (see pages 5-6 and 7-8 for operating instructions) ozone other than from an occasional change in wind speed or direction, you are improperly set up. Determine the new wind direction and correctly position your unit facing in the down wind direction—this is known as “chasing the wind.” With an Ozonics Unit, always chase the wind.

GROUND BLIND USE

1. Determine dominant wind direction and slightly open window on downwind side of blind to create a controlled airﬂow. Attach ground blind mounting bracket to blind’s roof frame. Connect the Ozonics ozone generator to the bracket so that the generator’s outlet will be positioned 12-18 inches from the opening in the blind aimed toward the downwind ventilation. The goal is to hyper-ozonate human scent as it leaves the blind through this single location.

2. Do not direct the ozone at any occupant of the blind. Ozone is relatively heavy and without proper ventilation, the Ozonics

ozone generator can create excess

concentration of ozone, primarily found in the lower levels of the blind.

3. Turn the Ozonics

ozone generator on (see operating instructions on subsequent pages). Do not operate an Ozonics HR200 or HR300 ozone generator on Boost mode in a ground blind.

4. If you smell ozone other than just with an occasional change in wind speed or direction, you are improperly set up.

3. BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION: On the left side of the faceplate are four battery level indicator LEDs. Next to each LED is a battery level percentage indicating the amount of remaining capacity in the battery. The top battery indicates an estimated remaining battery life of 100-75%, the second light down indicates 74-50%, the third one down indicates 49-25% and bottom LED indicates less than 25% battery life remaining. To check the estimated battery level, press the “BATT” button on the faceplate of the HR200 Unit and the corresponding battery level indicator LED will illuminate, informing you of the estimated remaining battery life.

4. LOW BATTERY WARNING: When the HR200 unit determines that the battery has been depleted, the bottom red LED will ﬂash for 5 seconds and then the unit will automatically shut down.

5. BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL NOTE: When you receive your HR200 unit, it comes with a battery that is not fully charged speciﬁcally for storage purposes. This battery should be fully charged in the HR200 battery charger before use. To get optimal performance out of your HR200 unit, always start your hunt with a fully charged battery.

6. CHARGING THE BATTERY: To charge the battery, take the Ozonics HR200 battery charger and plug the AC wall supply into an available wall outlet. The LED on the AC wall supply will illuminate green. Insert the HR200 battery into the charger pocket. The LED on the AC wall supply will turn red, indicating the battery is charging. When the battery is fully charged, the LED on the AC wall supply will turn green and is ready for use. Remove the battery from the charger. Do not store the battery in the charger.

7. INCORPORATED UTILITY LIGHTS ARE GREEN SO GAME WON’T SEE THEM: External LED lights are for use whenever extra illumination is needed. Push the “LITE” button to activate or deactivate. These lights are green because green lights have been proven to minimize alerting game while maximizing illumination for the user.

8. TRANSPORTING BATTERIES WITHIN PASSENGER BAGGAGE: Certain restrictions apply to the carriage of lithium ion batteries when carried by passengers as baggage. Ozonics™ original batteries have successfully passed testing outlined in Part III, Sub-Section 38.3 of the UN Manual of tests, allowing them to be carried in passenger baggage. Because of the risks associated with the carriage of batteries, these may NOT be transported within passenger CHECKED BAGGAGE. Batteries MUST be in CARRY-ON BAGGAGE. Batteries must be installed in the device or individually protected to prevent short circuit by insulating the terminals (e.g., taping over terminals, or by placing batteries in a separate bag or protective pouch). Although not deﬁned, a “reasonable” number of spare batteries can be carried within a passenger’s carry-on baggage in context of the equipment used by the passenger and his or her itinerary.

3. BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION: On the left side of the faceplate are four battery level indicator LEDs. Next to each LED is a battery level symbol indicating the amount of remaining capacity in the battery. The top LED indicates a remaining battery life of 100-75%, the second from top indicates 74-50%, the third one down indicates 49-25% and the bottom LED indicates less than 25% battery life remaining. The HR300 Unit and the battery work on a “Smart Battery” platform that allows the Unit to better gauge the precise level of run time left in the battery based on the current Mode setting of the unit.

4. LOW BATTERY WARNING: When the HR300 Unit determines there is less than 20 minutes of battery run time remaining, the bottom red LED will ﬂash once every 20 seconds, as a warning to be prepared to change the battery. When the Unit determines the battery has been fully depleted, the bottom red LED will ﬂash for approximately 5 seconds and then the Unit will turn itself off.

5. BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL NOTE: When you receive your HR300 Unit, it comes with a battery that is not fully charged for storage purposes. This battery should be fully charged in the HR300 battery charger before use. To get optimal performance out of your HR300 Unit, always start your hunt with a fully charged battery.

6. CHARGING THE BATTERY:

To charge the battery, plug the AC cord into the supplied power supply, and then into an AC outlet. The green light on the power supply will illuminate, letting you know it’s functioning properly. Plug the DC barrel connector into the back of the HR300 charger. After plugging the power supply into the charger, allow 10 seconds before you place the HR300 battery into the charger (the charger performs a self-check during this time period). If you put the battery into the charger during this time, the charger might either a) display no LEDs or b) the red LED might ﬂash. If either of these happen, remove the battery, wait 10 seconds and then re-insert the battery. The red “charging” LED should illuminate. Leave the battery in the charger until the red LED turns off and the green “ready” LED illuminates.

7. STORAGE MODE: The HR300 battery charger is equipped with a “Storage Cycle,” which is to be used only at the end of the hunting season to put the battery into optimal charge level for prolonged periods of non-use. To initiate the Storage Cycle, place the battery into a powered battery charger. Once the battery is in the charger, press and hold the “Storage” button until the red LED begins to ﬂash. Once the LED starts to ﬂash, release the button and the charger will complete the storage cycle on its own. When the cycle is complete, the LEDs will toggle between red and green. Caution: During the Storage Cycle, the battery and charger might get very warm to the touch—this is normal.

8. DRIWASH MODE: The HR300 Unit has a special mode that’s used in companion with the DriWash accessory bag (sold separately). To use the DriWash system, hang the DriWash bag and loosely hang your clothing inside. You can then zip the front panel closed. Take the HR300 Unit and turn it on and cycle through the Mode Settings by pressing the Mode button until the DriWash indicator illuminates. Place the HR300 Unit in the slot on the top of the DriWash bag so the output of the unit projects into the hole in the back of the slot and the fan on the unit is pointing up. Secure the HR300 Unit in the DriWash bag with included clip straps. The HR300 unit will run for approximately 10 minutes in the DriWash mode and then turn itself off.
