AQUAPAD+ System User’s Manual 2 Safe use of your AQUAPAD+ Your AQUAPAD+ is designed to be as safe as possible. The guidelines that follow ensure correct usage. Routine Care To keep your AQUAPAD+ working properly: ?? Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your AQUAPAD+. ?? Do not place anything on the display. ?? Avoid using or storing the AQUAPAD+ in places where static electricity or electrical interference is likely to occur. ?? Avoid using or storing the AQUAPAD+ in places where there are sudden temperature variations or condensation. ?? Avoid using or storing the AQUAPAD+ in direct sunlight. ?? Keep your AQUAPAD+ away from excessive moisture and temperature extremes. Do not expose the device to liquids or precipitation. ?? Operate your AQUAPAD+ with the main battery pack installed, even when using external power. This ensures the system has the necessary power to operate when disconnected from external power. ?? Store your AQUAPAD+ in its cradle when not in use. ?? To clean the device, wipe the display and the exterior with a soft, damp cloth moistened only with water. Do not use soap or other cleaning products, as they will discolor the finish and damage the display. Battery Care ?? Do not heat or attempt to disassemble the battery. Do not place the battery in water or expose it to flames. ?? Do not subject the battery to strong impact, such as hitting it with a hammer, stepping on it or dropping it. ?? Do not puncture the battery. ?? Do not attempt to service the battery. ?? Replace only with batteries designed for this product. ?? If the battery has not been used for three months, charge and discharge it for two full cycles before recommencing normal use.
Welcome to AQUAPAD+! 3 AC-DC Adapter Care ?? Use only the supplied AC-DC adapter or as specified by the manufacturer. Other adapters may cause damage to the AQUAPAD+; such damage is not covered under the warranty. ?? Grasp the plug, not the cord, when unplugging the adapter from a wall socket. ?? If the power cord or adapter becomes damaged (has exposed or severed wires, etc.), replace with a new AC-DC adapter. Use of damaged adapters may cause fire or electrical shock. ?? Power off and disconnect the AQUAPAD+ from the AC-DC adapter before unplugging the adapter from the wall socket. TFT LCD Display Care ?? Do not spray liquid directly on the display or allow excess liquid to drip inside the device. ?? Do not place anything on the display. ?? Do not scratch the surface of the display with hard objects. ?? Do not expose the display to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time. Travel Care ?? Take the AQUAPAD+ AC-DC adapter with you. ?? Pack your AQUAPAD+ in the Carrying Bag or a protective case and carry it as cabin baggage. Do not check it with your luggage. ?? Do not use your AQUAPAD+ on an airplane. The radio may function even though you are working off-line, and interfere with aircraft navigation. ?? Be aware of the possible effect of airport security devices on your device. There are three types of airport security devices: X-ray machines, magnetic detectors (the device you walk through), and security magnetic wands. It is recommended that you prevent exposure of your device to magnetic detectors and security magnetic wands. Shipping Care ?? Safeguard your data by making a backup copy. ?? Turn off your AQUAPAD+ and disconnect all external devices. ?? Pack your AQUAPAD+ and all external devices (e.g. power cords and AC-DC adapter) in the original packing boxes or in similar packaging with sufficient protective packing material.
