Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be
treated with care. The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty
coverage.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture
can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.
• Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal
temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic
circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
• Use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean any light sensors lenses.
If the device is not working properly, take it to your nearest authorized service
facility for service.
