Charging the battery
When charging the battery for the very first time, you should charge it for at least 12 hours via the USB cable
with your device turned off. Do not disconnect the device from the power source during charging.
CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery:
Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct sunlight).
Recharge the battery when it is nearly discharged. When recharging, make sure that the battery is fully charged. Doing
so can extend the battery life.
If you will not use the product for a long period of time (over one month) or find the discharge/recharge time has been
shortened, be sure to fully discharge the battery first before recharging it. You are also advised to fully discharge and
recharge the battery once every 1~2 months.
Failure to follow the battery usage instructions could cause damage to your Mio, battery and even bodily injury or
property damage and will void the warranty.
1. Turn off your Mio so that it takes less time to charge the battery.
2. Turn on the computer.
3. Connect the mini-USB end of the USB cable to the left side of your Mio and the other end to a USB port in
your computer.
Note: If your Mio is on when connected to a computer, a screen appears to prevent you from using your Mio.
Note: When the Mio is connected to a computer, it is recognised as an external mass storage device. Do not delete any files
pre-installed in the Mio. Deleting files of which the function is unknown can cause programs or features to malfunction.
Note: Mio is not responsible for product quality caused by file deletion by users.

Using your Mio in a vehicle
CAUTION:
Select an appropriate location for mounting the Mio in a vehicle. Never place the Mio where the driver’s field of vision is
blocked.
If the car’s windscreen is tinted with a reflective coating, it may be athermic and impact the GPS reception. In this
instance, please mount your Mio where there is a “clear area.”
To protect your Mio against sudden surges in current, connect the car charger only after the car engine has been
started.

Caring for your Mio
Taking good care of your Mio will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your Mio.
Keep your Mio away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
Avoid exposing your Mio to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.
Do not place anything on top of your Mio or drop objects on your Mio.
Do not drop your Mio or subject it to severe shock.
Do not subject your Mio to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could cause moisture
condensation inside the unit, which could damage your Mio. In the event of moisture condensation, allow
the Mio to dry out completely before use.
The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic
screen protectors designed specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used to help
protect the screen from minor scratches.
Never clean your Mio with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen and the exterior of
your Mio.
Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to your Mio. Disassembly, modification
or any attempt at repair could cause damage to your Mio and even bodily injury or property damage and
will void any warranty.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment as your
Mio, its parts or accessories.
To discourage theft, do not leave the device and accessories in plain view in an unattended vehicle.
Do not expose the device to extreme heat or direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Overheating may
damage the device.
