The HUAWEI MediaPad may generate excessive heat on its surface after continuously running for a long period
of time, especially in a high temperature environment. When the HUAWEI MediaPad becomes hot, stop
charging, close running applications, and move it to a cool place. Avoid holding on to the overheated HUAWEI
MediaPad for too long for risk of burn injuries.
•
It is strongly recommended that you use the charger and USB cable provided with the HUAWEI
MediaPad to charge the device. Using other chargers or USB cables may cause the HUAWEI MediaPad
performance to decline or impose safety risks. When charging the HUAWEI MediaPad, do not op erat e or
cover it or the power adapter with any objects.
