Safety and usage information
Protect batteries and chargers from
damage
• Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or
very hot temperatures (below 0° C/32°
F or above 45° C/113° F). Extreme
temperatures can reduce the charging
capacity and life of your batteries.
• Prevent batteries from contacting
metal objects, as this can create a
connection between the + and -
terminals of your batteries and lead to
temporary or permanent battery
damage.
• Never use a damaged charger or
battery.
• Risk of explosion if a battery is
replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose
of used batteries according to the
instructions.
Handle your device carefully and
sensibly
• Do not allow your device to get wet—
liquids can cause serious damage. Do
not handle your device with wet hands.
Water damage to your device can void
your manufacturer’s warranty.
• Avoid using or storing your device in
dusty, dirty areas to prevent damage
to moving parts.
• Your device is made of complex
electronics—protect it from impacts
and rough handling to avoid serious
damage.
• Do not paint your device, as paint can
clog moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
• Avoid using the device’s camera flash
or light close to the eyes of children or
animals.
