The following suggestions will help you care for the powerhorn so you can enjoy it for years. • Keep the powerhorn dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that corrode the electronic circuits. • Handle the powerhorn gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage its circuit boards and case and cause it to work improperly. • Use and store the powerhorn in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts. • Keep the powerhorn away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts. • Occasionally wipe the powerhorn with a damp cloth to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the powerhorn. • Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type. Always remove weak or dead batteries. They can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.
