APPENDIX E
Maintenance
The NavTalk is a state-of-the-art device and should receive proper care. To
receive the most benefit from your NavTalk and extended product life, please
follow these recommended procedures for care and maintenance.
Do not store the NavTalk in hot areas, such as a closed automobile. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic components, damage the bat-
tery pack and cause malfunction of the NavTalk. If storing in your car for
extended periods, place the NavTalk under a seat and away from direct sun-
light. In direct sunlight the NavTalk may gain enough heat to be uncomfort-
able to hold against your head during use. Always allow the NavTalk to cool
down before use when exposed to temperatures in excess of 112 degrees F.
(The closed interior of your car or its trunk compartment can reach tempera-
tures approaching 120 degrees F on hot, sunny days)
Clean only with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use harsh cleaners,
solvents, or detergents as they may attack plastic surfaces, (in particular the
lens of the LCD display).
Do not attempt to open the phone case. This will damage waterproofing
seals. The NavTalk is designed for disassembly by trained technicians only.
Do not drop or otherwise impact the NavTalk as rough handling may dam-
age internal circuit boards and other electronic components.
Do not allow children to play with the NavTalk or its accessories. Improper
handling and function key sequencing may remove some of your stored data.
Do not use any other battery charger or external power supply than those
provided for use with the NavTalk.
