Mounting and Positioning
Any mounts used should be fitted by a qualified person. Failure to install the mounting
system according to the manufacturer's instructions may result in an injury to the user.
Be certain that the user’s view is not obstructed by the mounting.
Analysis of positioning by a qualified person is required to prevent repetitive stress
injuries to the user.
Vision and Hearing
The communication partner should ensure that the user takes frequent breaks to avoid
eye strain.
Consult your vision care provider about device positioning considerations for the user.
Excessive volume or sound pressure level when using earphones or headphones can
cause hearing loss over extended periods of time. Set the volume at a low level and
increase it only enough that you can hear comfortably.
Ports and Connectors
Keep the device ports and mating cable connectors clean so that they make the best
possible contact and are able to maximize the service life of your device. Dirty cable
connectors will transfer the contaminate to the mating connector on the device and
may degrade performance.
If your device has been exposed to water, each USB port must be completely dry before
a USB cable is inserted into it. To remove moisture from the USB ports, shake the
device several times with each USB port facing downward, and then use a microfiber
cloth to wipe the device dry. You should then check the USB port area again. If
moisture is still visible in any USB port, repeat the shaking and drying procedure.
Do not try to force a connector into a port. Be sure you are inserting the connector into
the correct port and that you have the connector turned so that it matches the
orientation of the port.
