Precautions / Warnings
Please read the following precauons to avoid fire, excessive
heat, chemical leakage, and explosion:
Do not disassemble or modify the baery.
Do not expose the baery to heat (fire) or water/moisture.
When disposing of used/old baeries, wrap with insulaon
tape to shield the baery from electrical contact with
metallic objects, which might ignite a fire or explosion.
If the unit is plugged into the power adapter and the baery
seems to be overheang, or if there is smoke or peculiar
odors emanang from the unit, unplug immediately to avoid
the possibility of fire.
Do not touch the cables if there is heat emanang from or
near the cables as melted or deformed cables could expose
wiring and result in burns or electric shock.
Do not use cloth or anything to wrap or cover the equipment
while charging – this could cause the unit to overheat,
melng the casing or causing fire.
If the unit is accidently immersed in water, or if moisture has
seeped inside, or metal objects have dropped into the
casing, immediately remove the baery to avoid fire or
electric shock.
Do not operate or store the baery in high-temperature
environments. This will cause baery leakage and/or
shorten the life of the baery.
Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents
to clean the equipment. This may damage the exterior finish
or touch screen and may even ignite a fire.
