Safety and Compliance Information

Use Responsibly. Read all instructions and safety information before use.

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 Menu, and choose Turn Off Wireless) and let the screen
revert to the screen saver. Wait for the device to dry completely before pressing the power
button to wake 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 to
avoid scratches.

Don’t expose your Kindle to extreme heat or cold. For example, don’t leave it in the trunk of
your car in sub-zero or high-heat conditions.

Use of third party accessories may impact your Kindle’s performance. In limited
circumstances, use of third party accessories may void your Kindle’s limited warranty. Read
all safety instructions for any accessories before using with your Kindle.
