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 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 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.
Hard drives are fragile components that must be

handled with care. All impacts caused by shock,

vibration, bumping, and dropping; other

mishandling of the device; extreme

temperatures; humidity and liquids may cause

the hard drive to malfunction and data to be lost

or corrupted.

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.

Use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean any lenses,

such as camera, and proximity sensor lenses.

Use only the supplied or an approved

replacement antenna. Unauthorised 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.
