Care and
maintenance
Your device is a product of superior
design and craftsmanship and
should be treated with care. The
following suggestions will help you
protect your warranty coverage.
• 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, remove
the battery, and allow the device to
dry completely before replacing it.
• Do not use or store the device in
dusty, dirty areas. Its 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 attempt to open the device
other than as instructed in this
guide.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the
device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the device.
• Do not paint the device.
• Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments
could damage the device and may
violate regulations governing
radio devices.
• Use chargers indoors.
• Always create a backup of data
you want to keep, such as
contacts and calendar notes.
• To reset the device from time to
time for optimum performance,
power off the device and remove
the battery.
