Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards
• Do not put your device in a place subject to excessive dust and keep the
minimum required distance between the power cord and heat sources.
• Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning your device, and clean the power
plug pin when it is dirty.
• When using the power plug, ensure that it is firmly connected. If it is not, it
may cause excessive heat or fire.
• If you put your device in a pocket or bag without covering the receptacle
of the device (power plug pin), metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip
or pen) may short-circuit the device. Always cover the receptacle when not
in use.
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Metallic articles such as a coin, paperclip
or pen in your pocket or bag may short-circuit the + and – terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the battery) upon moving. Short-circuiting of the
terminal may damage the battery and cause an explosion.
