Maintaining Your Kindle
Do not use your Kindle or its accessories in rain, or near sinks or other wet locations.
Take care not to spill any food or liquid in your Kindle. If your device does get wet,
unplug all cables, turn off the wireless (go to Menu, and choose Turn Wireless Off) and
let the screen revert to the screen saver. Wait for the device to dry completely before
sliding the switch to wake again. Do not attempt to dry your Kindle with an external
heat source, such as a microwave oven or hair dryer. Clean the screen with a soft cloth;
be careful not to wipe it with anything abrasive. When carrying your Kindle in a bag or
briefcase, keep a book cover on to avoid scratches.
Don't expose your Kindle to extreme heat or cold. For example, don't leave it in the
trunk of your car in sub-zero or high-heat conditions.
