1.5 Care and Maintenance
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will
corrode electronic circuits. If your device does get wet, allow it to dry completely.
• 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.
• 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.
• Unauthorized modifications or attachments could damage the device and may violate regulations governing
radio devices.

2.5 Handling Recommendations
The populated Samtec connectors require certain mechanical force to insert the SoM into its mating baseboard con-
nectors. To avoid mechanical damage to the components populated on M100PF it is strongly recommended not to
apply mechanical force on the Ball Grid Array (BGA) components. The BGA components are marked as shaded in
the figure below:
