Maintaining Your Kindle Device

Water Protection

Your Kindle has been tested to withstand brief accidental immersion in water under certain
conditions. However, your Kindle is not intended for underwater use and may experience temporary
effects from exposure to water. If your Kindle is immersed in water, follow these instructions:
• Quickly retrieve your Kindle. If your Kindle has a cover, remove the cover.
• If your Kindle was immersed in fresh water, unplug all cables and drain your Kindle by
letting it stand upright with the micro-USB port facing down.
• If your Kindle was immersed in other types of water, unplug all cables, drain your Kindle
by letting it stand upright with the micro-USB port facing down, rinse your Kindle off using
fresh water (such as cold tap water) with the micro-USB port facing the water source, and
drain your Kindle again.
• Let the device dry fully in a well-ventilated location before plugging the USB cable into
your Kindle.
• Do not attempt to dry your Kindle with an external heat source (such as a microwave oven
or hairdryer).
• Do not insert a foreign object into the micro-USB port (such as a cotton bud or paper
towel).
To reduce the risk of damage to your Kindle, follow these instructions:
• Do not intentionally immerse your Kindle in water or expose it to seawater, salt water,
chlorinated water or other liquids (such as beverages).
• Do not spill any food, oil, lotion or other abrasive substances on your Kindle.
• Do not expose your Kindle to pressurised water, high-velocity water or extremely humid
conditions (such as a steam room).
If your Kindle is dropped or otherwise damaged, the waterproofing of the device may be
compromised.
For more information concerning care instructions and the waterproofing of your device, please see

General Care

Clean the screen with a soft cloth; be careful not to wipe it with anything abrasive. When carrying
your Kindle in a bag or briefcase, keep a cover on it to avoid scratches.
