Other Things You Should Know
Care
You should be able to take your MyFi along with you
during most of your daily activities. Still, you should
remember:
• Your MyFi is not waterproof. Avoid splashing it with
liquids and never submerge it.
• Take your MyFi with you when you leave your vehicle,
especially on a hot day. Not only can you continue to
enjoy XM programming, but you’ll also prolong the
life of your MyFi’s case, display, and battery.
• If your MyFi gets dirty, wipe the case with a soft cloth
lightly moistened with water, then wipe dry with
another cloth. Avoid chemicals such as paint thinner,
alcohol, or abrasive cleansers.

not disassemble, crush, or puncture the battery. Never
allow metal to touch the battery terminals.

disposed of properly and may need to be
recycled. Contact your local recycler for
details. Never dispose of batteries in a fire
or in water as
they may explode.
