FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN

FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR OTHER INJURY OR DAMAGE.

Maintaining Your Kindle Device

Do not use your Kindle device or its accessories in rain, or near sinks or other wet locations.
Take care not to spill any food or liquid on your Kindle. If your device does get wet, unplug
all cables, turn off the wireless (tap the Menu button, select Settings, and enable Aeroplane
Mode) and let the screen revert to the screen saver. Wait for the device to dry completely
before pressing the power button to wake it again. Do not attempt to dry your Kindle with
an external heat source, such as a microwave oven or hair dryer. Clean the screen with a soft
cloth; be careful not to wipe it with anything abrasive. When carrying your Kindle in a bag
or briefcase, keep a cover on it to avoid scratches.

Do not expose your Kindle to extreme heat or cold. For example, do not leave it in the boot
of your car in sub-zero or high-heat conditions.

The use of third-party accessories may affect your Kindle's performance. In limited
circumstances, the use of third-party accessories may void your Kindle's limited warranty.
Read all safety instructions for any accessories before using them with your Kindle.
