MAKING IT LAST
Your device is a complex electronic device.
Here are some hints that should help you
extend the life of your new device.
Store your device in a protective case.
The touch screen of your device is delicate
and should be protected from scratches.
Keep your device in a safe place—away from children
who may nd it fun to see if it sinks or oats, and away
from dogs that nd it to be an irresistible chew toy.
Water will damage your device and accessories—
even a small amount such as water droplets from
a soda in your car cup-holder, melting snowakes,
tears of joy, squirt-gun crossre or steam from
hot water in the kitchen or bathroom.
If your charger or any other accessory is damaged,
replace it or take it to a qualied service dealer—Do not
attempt to operate your charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, thrown from a speeding motorcycle or
is otherwise damaged; doing so may damage your device.
