Appendix E
CLEANING THE CASING
The aera is constructed of high-quality materials and does not require user
maintenance other than cleaning. Clean the outer casing (not the touchscreen) using
a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution, and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical
cleaners and solvents that can damage plastic components.
CLEANING THE TOUCHSCREEN
Clean the touchscreen with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Use water, isopropyl alcohol,
or eyeglass cleaner, if needed. Apply the liquid to the cloth, and then gently wipe the
touchscreen.
PROTECTING THE UNIT
• Do not store the aera where prolonged exposure to extreme temperature can
occur.
• Though a PDA stylus can be used to operate the touchscreen, never attempt this
while operating an aircraft or vehicle. Never use a hard or sharp object to operate
the touchscreen.
