Safety and Care
All wireless devices are susceptible to interference, which might affect the
performance of a Wireless Stick.
Do not switch on a Wireless Stick in restricted areas or areas where wireless
devices are prohibited. When instructed to do so, switch off the Wireless
Stick in restricted areas such as those near medical equipment,
fuel/chemicals, or blasting areas, or when instructed to in aircraft.
The Wireless Stick contains a lithium polymer battery that has been fully
tested for safety. However, several precautions should be taken when using
a Wireless Stick:
30
 When a Wireless Stick is in a pocket with other metallic objects, make
sure the cap is in place.
 Never charge a Wireless Stick unattended.
 Charge a Wireless Stick in an area away from flammable materials.
 Never intentionally heat a Wireless Stick in a microwave oven or dryer
or place in a fire. Never use the Wireless Stick in temperatures above
60°C (140°F).
 Stop using a Wireless Stick if any abnormal heat, odor, deformation,
discoloration, or other abnormal condition is detected. If any liquid
leaks from a Wireless Stick, wash your hands well with fresh water
immediately. If liquid gets into your eyes, wash with edible oil and see
a doctor immediately.
The Wireless Stick is not water resistant.
Do not store a Wireless Stick in extreme temperatures. High temperatures
can shorten the life of the device by damaging the battery or cause warping
or melting of the plastic enclosure. Cold temperatures can also shorten the
life of the Wireless Stick by damaging the battery, causing plastic enclouse to
crack, or causing moisture to condense on or inside the device.
Keep the Wireless Stick dry. Water or other liquids can damage it. In
addition, high humidity can cause condensation to form. If a Wireless Stick
gets wet, turn it off, place it in a low‐humidity environment, and allow it to
completely dry.
31
Do not store a Wireless Stick in a dusty or dirty area because mechanicals
parts may be damaged or cease to work.
Do not attempt to open or modify a Wireless Stick. It contains no internal
serviceable parts. Attempting to modify a Wireless Stick can damage the
device and cause it to operate in violation of government regulations and can
cause a safety concern.
Do not drop, shake, strike, crush, or blend a Wireless Stick as this may
damage the device.
If a Wireless Stick becomes damaged, halt use immediately.
Cleaning
Before cleaning a Wireless Stick, disconnect it from any USB port and turn off
device. If the outside of the Wireless Stick is soiled, use a cloth that has been
slightly dampened with water to clean the outside. Do not allow water to
enter the Wireless Stick around the power button or USB connector.
Maintenance and Storage
The Wireless Stick contains a lithium polymer battery that needs proper care
for best usage. Note that while the lithium polymer battery does not have
any memory effect, proper case is required for the best usage
Standard Maintenance
32
For proper maintenance of the battery, it is best to periodically let the
Wireless Stick discharge. We do not recommend keeping the Wireless Stick
plugged in. For the best battery life, we recommend charging and discharging
the Wireless Stick at least one a month.
Long Term Storage
If the Wireless Stick will not be used, it is best to keep the battery around 50%
charged. To charge the battery to approximately 50%, fully discharge the
Wireless Stick until it turns itself off, then let it charge for 1 hour. Store the
Wireless Stick at a temperature between 20°C and 45°C (4°F and 113°F) at a
relative humidity of 65% +/‐ 20%
Recycling
Please recycle all the Wireless Stick packaging.
When the Wireless Stick has reached the end of its useful life, return it to a
recycling station in your community to prevent uncontrolled waste disposal
and dispose of the battery properly.
