Equipment warnings

WARNING! To reduce the risk of personal injury, electrical shock, fire or damage to the
equipment:
• Plug the wall charger into an electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
• Disconnect power from the equipment by unplugging the wall charger from the electrical
outlet or unplugging the synchronization cable from the host computer.
• Do not place anything on the wall charger cord or any of the other cables. Arrange them so
that no one may accidentally step on or trip over them.
• Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging the wall charger from the electrical outlet,
pull on the plug, not the cord.
Use only wall chargers intended for your MapSight. Using any other external power source can
damage your product and void your warranty.

Using your MapSight in extreme temperatures

MapSight operates in ranges from -22°F to 122°F (-30°C to 50°C). To help your device function
properly, store the device indoors when possible.
Other tips:
• If your MapSight is exposed to temperatures below 14°F (-10°C), the device may slow down
or the display backlight may become dim to reduce the load on the battery power.
• Extremely low or high temperatures may prevent the battery pack from charging. Charge
the battery pack in temperatures between 32°F and 104°F (0° C and 40° C). For best results,
charge the battery pack at room temperature (68°F or 20°C)
