MAINTENANCE
CLEANING: Disconnect the device from all power sources and devices prior to cleaning. Use clean, dry, soft, lint-free cloth to wipe down the entire unit. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
STORAGE: If storing for more than 1 month, charge completely before storage, and recharge approximately every 3 months to avoid full discharge. Store in cool temperatures, mild humidity, and away from direct sunlight (See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Leaving the unit in a vehicle or other confined spaces in extreme hot temperatures can lead to decrease in service life, overheating, or fire. Extreme cold temperatures below the specified storage range can also harm performance and service life. Keep away from corrosive chemicals and gases. After taking out of storage, inspect visually to make sure device and all accessories look satisfactory. Allow unit to return to ambient conditions before recharging or charging other devices.
RECHARGING: Recharge as needed. There are no predesignated intervals at which to recharge as long as you are using the unit regularly. Avoid discharging completely on a regular basis, as this can impact overall life. Regularly inspect ports and charging cable for any debris, dirt, damage, and corrosion. DO NOT attempt to fix. Replace device and/or cable as needed.
