Caring for your device

Taking good care of your device will

moisture and extreme temperatures.

sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for
extended periods of time.
ƒ Do not place anything on top of your
device or drop objects on your device.
ƒ Do not drop your device or subject it to
severe shock.
ƒ Do not subject your device to sudden
and severe temperature changes. This
could cause moisture condensation
inside the unit, which could damage
your device. In the event of moisture
condensation, allow the device to dry
out completely before use.
ƒ 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.

any attempt at repair could cause
damage to your device and even bodily
injury or property damage and will
void any warranty.

liquids, gases or explosive materials
in the same compartment as your
device, its parts or accessories.

device and accessories in plain view in
an unattended vehicle.

Precautions and notices

in an appropriate place, so as not
to obstruct the driver's view or
deployment of airbags.

material appears near the lens. Please
keep the lens clean.

a coating, it may impact the recording
quality.
