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.
