. . . . . . . . . . 162 9 Index 4 Owner's Manual Safety Instructions Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your device and working environment from potential damage. General · User should not operate the device while in motion. User remains responsible for the safety of his/her travel and should obey traffic and pedestrian laws and exercise good judgment at all times. Some of the map data may be outdated, incomplete or inaccurate and the device may produce inaccurate or inappropriate results. Due to road, weather and other conditions, some route guidance and/or directions may not be appropriate. Do not attempt to service the device yourself unless you are a trained service technician. Always follow installation instructions closely. If you use an extension power cable with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension power cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable. Do not push objects into air vents or openings of your device. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components. Keep your device away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents. Avoid placing loose papers underneath your device; do not place your device in a closed-in wall unit or on a bed, sofa, or rug. Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor, when you use it to run the device or to charge the battery. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter inside a carrying case. The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of your device. Use care when handling the adapter during or immediately after operation. Do not use your device in a wet environment, for example, near a bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a wet basement. · · · · · · · Owner's Manual 5 www.dell.com | support.dell.com · To help avoid the potential hazard of electric shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm. Do not use your device during an electrical storm unless all cables have been disconnected and the device is operating on battery power. Before you clean your device, disconnect the device from the electrical outlet. Clean your device with a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, which may contain flammable substances. Do not expose the GPS receiver to temperatures above 60 degree Centigrade (128 degrees Fahrenheit). Failure to follow those instructions may present risk of explosion, fire or high temperature. In particular do not leave your GPS receiver exposed to direct sunlight in your vehicle for extended time periods when you are not using your navigation system. · · Power · Use only the Dell-provided DC charger or the standard Dell AC adapter provided with your DellTM AximTM PDA approved for use with this device. Use of another AC adapter or DC charger may cause a fire or explosion. Before you connect the device to an electrical outlet, check the DC charger or AC adapter voltage rating to ensure that the required voltage and frequency match the available power source. To remove the device from all power sources, turn the device off, and disconnect the DC charger and/or the AC adapter from the electrical outlet. To help prevent electric shock, plug the AC adapter and device power cables into properly grounded power sources. These power cables may be equipped with 3-prong plugs to provide an earth grounding connection. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from the power cable plug. If you use a power extension cable, use the appropriate type, 2prong or 3-prong, to mate with the AC adapter power cable. · · · 6 Owner's Manual · · Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter's power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on. If you are using a multiple-outlet power strip, use caution when plugging the AC adapter's power cable into the power strip. Some power strips may allow you to insert the plug incorrectly. Incorrect insertion of the power plug could result in permanent damage to your device, as well as risk of electric shock and/or fire. Ensure that the ground prong of the power plug is inserted into the mating ground contact of the power strip. Do not leave the GPS receiver or the PDA connected to the car charger when the car is not running. · Battery · · The GPS receiver contains an internal battery. This battery is not user serviceable. The GPS receiver poses a burn hazard if you handle it improperly. Do not disassemble it. Handle a damaged or leaking GPS receiver pack with extreme care. If the battery within the GPS receiver is damaged, electrolyte may leak from the cells and may cause personal injury. Keep the GPS receiver away from children. Do not store or leave your device near a heat source such as a radiator, fireplace, stove, electric heater, or other heat-generating appliance or otherwise expose it to temperatures in excess of 60ºC (140ºF). When heated to excessive temperatures, battery cells could explode or vent, posing a risk of fire. Do not dispose of your GPS receiver in a fire or with normal household waste. The Battery cells may explode. Discard the device according to the manufacturer's instruction ...
