Maintenance
• Place the unit on a level surface away from sources of direct sunlight or excessive heat.
• Protect your furniture when placing your unit on a natural wood and lacquered finish. A cloth or other protective material should be
placed between it and the furniture.
• Clean your unit with a soft cloth moistened only with mild soap and water. Stronger cleaning agents, such as thinner or similar materials
can damage the surface of the unit.
Long-term Storage of Your Product
• Store in a cool, dry place.
• Unit should be charged before storing.
• If stored for a long period of time, unit may be unresponsive until charged for a number of hours (depending on discharge level)
• Do not store for more than a year without charging as this can permanently harm the battery.
• After long term storage, if unit is unresponsive after charging, RESET unit while connected to AC and recharge the unit.
Internal Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
This device uses an internal rechargeable lithium-ion battery that should last the lifetime of the device. If you suspect your battery may be
dead, try charging it several times and try resetting the unit.
WARNING/DISPOSAL OF UNIT
Please do NOT attempt to change the battery yourself. If the battery has died and you do not want us to replace your battery, you should
follow the disposal instructions below:
• Never dispose of used batteries/electronics with ordinary solid wastes, since they contain toxic substances.
• Always dispose of used batteries/electronics in accordance with the prevailing community regulations that apply to the disposal of
batteries/electronics. If there are no local regulations concerning battery/electronics disposal, please dispose of the device in a waste
bin for electronic devices.
• Many electronics retailers now recycle batteries and other electronic components at no charge. Check to see which ones in your area
do so.
GENERAL BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
• Never use or charge a battery if it appears to be leaking, discolored, deformed, or in any way abnormal.
• Never disassemble the unit or attempt to remove battery as that could cause leakage of alkaline solution or other electrolytic substance.
• Always confirm that the temperature is 5°C - 35° C (41° - 95° Fahrenheit) before you charge the battery. Leakage or deterioration of
the battery may occur if this warning is not heeded.
