WARNING! IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to read and follow these safety instructions could result in fire, explosion, electrical shock or other hazard, causing serious and/or fatal injury and/or property damage.

• Do not modify, disassemble, open, drop, crush, puncture, or shred the KeyFolio™ Pro Performance Keyboard Case for iPad® 2 (which will be known as the KeyFolio for the remainder of this instruction guide).
  • The KeyFolio contains a lithium-polymer battery, which is flammable. Keep away from open flame.
• To prevent short circuit or other potential hazards, prevent metal objects such as coins or keys from coming into contact with the KeyFolio, and do not insert foreign objects into the KeyFolio or its ports.
• Keep your KeyFolio dry, and do not use with wet hands. Moisture in or on the KeyFolio may lead to electrical shock. If exposed to moisture during use, unplug the KeyFolio immediately. If your KeyFolio gets wet, have a qualified technician evaluate the product's safety before resuming use.
• Your KeyFolio may become warm during operation. This is normal. However, to prevent overheating, keep area around KeyFolio ventilated and do not place anything on or around KeyFolio during operation. Do not operate your KeyFolio near a heat source, heat vent, or in direct sunlight. Your KeyFolio should be used in temperatures between 50–80°F (10–27°C).
• If the KeyFolio begins to swell or expand, emits a strong odor, or becomes hot to the touch, discontinue use of the KeyFolio, and have the product examined by a qualified electronic technician.
• Inspect your KeyFolio and cables for damage before use. Have any damaged part repaired or replaced before use.
• Your KeyFolio is not user serviceable. Do not attempt to open, modify, or repair.
• If the battery inside the KeyFolio leaks for any reason, discontinue use, and do not allow the KeyFolio's contents to contact your skin or eyes. In the event of accidental contact wash the affected area with large amounts of water and seek medical attention immediately.
• Your KeyFolio is not a toy. Keep them away from children. Insure that all persons who use this product read and follow these warnings and instructions.
• Do not leave the KeyFolio on prolonged charge when not in use.

Enhancing Performance by Proper Care and Storage of your KeyFolio

- Do not store your KeyFolio either fully charged or discharged. It is best to store your KeyFolio with at least 30 % charge remaining. To check the charge level of your KeyFolio press the battery indicator button.

- Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery in the KeyFolio. Charge your KeyFolio between uses even if it is not fully discharged. The lithium-polymer battery used in this product has no “memory effect.” Therefore, several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better than one full discharge, and will help prolong the life of your KeyFolio. Short battery life in laptops is mainly caused by heat, rather than charge/discharge patterns.

• Do not store your KeyFolio at elevated temperatures (such as in your car) or in high humidity.

Disposing of your KeyFolio

• Do not incinerate or dispose of your KeyFolio in a fire or microwave.
• Do not dispose of your KeyFolio as ordinary refuse, as it contains a lithium-polymer battery. Consult your local municipal or civil authority for instructions on correctly disposing of a lithium-polymer battery.
• In the USA and Canada: This mark 📋 indicates your KeyFolio can be recycled by the Rechargeable Battery Recovery Corporation (“RBRC”). When you are ready to dispose of the KeyFolio, please contact the RBRC at 1-800-8-BATTERY or www.rbrc.org.
