leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since overcharging may shorten its

lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.

Never use any charger that is damaged.

Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter

conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the

battery between 15ºC and 25ºC (59ºF and 77ºF). A device with a hot or cold battery may

not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is

particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Do not dispose of batteries in a re as they may explode. Batteries may also explode

if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when

possible. Do not dispose as household waste.

Care and maintenance

Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated

with care. The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty coverage.

· Keep all accessories and enhancements out of the reach of small children.

· Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture can

contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your device does get wet,

allow it to dry completely.

· Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and electronic

components can be damaged.

· Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of

electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.

· Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal

temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic circuit

boards.

· Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal circuit

boards and ne mechanics.

· Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the

device.

· Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper

operation.

All of the above suggestions apply equally to your device, battery, charger, or any

enhancement. If any device is not working properly, take it to the nearest authorized

service facility.
