Instructions for safety and use:

Only qualified persons may perform technical work on the product. The product may not be opened or changed. The components cannot be serviced by the user.

Never expose the device to moisture, condensation and liquids.

Protect the device from extremely high and low temperatures and temperature fluctuations. Use the device within an ambient temperature of 10º C until 40º C.

Never place the device close to a source of heat, and protect it from direct sunlight.

Make sure that the surroundings are as dust-free as possible when you use and store the device.

Never clean the surface of the device with solvents, paint thinners, cleansers or other chemical products. Instead, use a soft, dry cloth or soft brush.

The capacity indicated by your operating system can be different than the actual capacity of your device. Like most manufacturers of computer hardware, TrekStor uses the prefixes for units (e. g. 1 GB = 1.000.000.000 bytes) as prescribed by the International System of Units (SI). Unfortunately, many operating systems do not comply with this norm and display a lower capacity because they base their calculations on the assumption that 1 GB = 2 bytes = 1.073.741.824 bytes. Caution: Please note that this device uses radio technology and may only be used for its intended purpose in all countries of the European Union, Switzerland and Norway. Notes:

In certain circumstances, exposing the device to an electrostatic discharge may interrupt the data transfer between the device and the computer and impair the functions of the device. If this occurs, the device should be unplugged from the USB port and then plugged in again.

Do not use USB cables longer than 3 meters.

The eBook reader is optimized for the provided earphones (32 Ohm impedance). Using other earphones/ headphones with a lower impedance can damage the eBook reader or earphone/headphone.

This device can produce high sound volumes. In order to avoid hearing loss that can occur immediately, in the future, or gradually, you should not listen at high volumes for extended periods. This applies regardless of whether you listen with speakers, headphones, or earphones. If you notice a ringing noise in your ears, lower the volume immediately or stop using the eBook reader. Please keep in mind that permanent hearing loss can first appear at a later point in time. While you may become accustomed to higher volumes over time so that they may seem normal to you, your sense of hearing may still have been impaired by this. The higher you set the volume, the faster your sense of hearing can be damaged.

Using earphones/headphones while driving a motor vehicle is not recommended and is prohibited in some countries. Always drive carefully and with full concentration. Stop using your eBook reader if you become distracted or interrupted by it when driving a motor vehicle or during other activities that require your full attention.
