Caring for Your c550

Your c550 contains sensitive electronic

components that can be permanently

damaged if exposed to excessive shock

or vibration. To minimize the risk of

damage to your c550, avoid dropping

your unit and operating it in high-shock

and high-vibration environments.

Cleaning the Unit

The c550 is constructed of high-quality

materials and does not require user

maintenance other than cleaning. Clean

the unit’s outer casing (not the touch

screen) using a cloth dampened with

a mild detergent solution, and then

wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners

and solvents that can damage plastic

components.

Cleaning the Touch Screen

Clean the touch screen with a soft, clean,

lint-free cloth. Use water, isopropyl

alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner, if needed.

Apply the liquid to the cloth, and then

gently wipe the touch screen.

Protecting Your c550

Do not store the c550 where

prolonged exposure to extreme

temperatures can occur (such as in

the trunk of a car), because it can

cause permanent damage.
Do not expose the c550 to water.

Contact with water can cause this unit

to malfunction.
Though a PDA stylus can also be

used to operate the touch screen,

never attempt this while operating

a vehicle. Never use a hard or sharp

object to operate the touch screen or

damage may result.
