Maintaining Your Kindle Device

Take care not to spill any food or liquid on your Kindle. If your device does get wet, unplug all
cables, turn off the wireless (tap the Menu button, select Settings, and enable Airplane Mode)

careful not to wipe it with anything abrasive. When carrying your Kindle in a bag or briefcase,

Don't expose your Kindle to extreme heat or cold. For example, don't leave it in the trunk of
your car in sub-zero or high-heat conditions.
