Tips and Recommendations
- While using some applications that use a lot of the device’s processing capacity, the device may become warm. If this occurs, take a short break from using the device to let it cool down.
- Keep the unit clean by wiping it with a slightly damp cloth.
- The Kurio® bumper protects your tablet in most cases, but is only intended to make the product more resistant to damage due to falls, bumps or other impact damages. Like any other electronic device, Kurio® is fragile and despite the presence of the protective bumper, can break or be damaged from forces like dropping, banging, or being hit by other things. Please handle with care.
- Broken screens and touch panels are not covered by the warranty, and no bumper can prevent all damage.
- Do not damage or deform the power supply USB cord. If it is damaged or deformed, it may cause electric shock or malfunction when used. When removing from wall outlet, be sure to remove by holding the plug attachment and not by pulling the cord.
The power adapter & cord should be plugged in near the unit, so it is easily accessible and does not strain the cord.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the
FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can
be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output. While there may be differences between
the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement.

limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
