Safety, Handling, & Support
Important safety information
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in re, electric shock, or other
injuries, or damage to iPad or other property. Read all the safety information below before
using iPad.
Handling Handle iPad with care. It is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive
electronic components inside. iPad can be damaged if dropped, burned, punctured, or crushed,
or if it comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged iPad, such as one with a cracked
screen, as it may cause injury. If you’re concerned about scratching, consider using a case
or cover.
Repairing Don’t open iPad and don’t attempt to repair iPad by yourself. Disassembling iPad may
damage it or may cause injury to you. If iPad is damaged, malfunctions, or comes in contact with
liquid, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can nd more information
about getting service at www.apple.com/support/ipad/service/faq.
Battery Don’t attempt to replace the iPad battery yourself—you may damage the battery, which
could cause overheating and injury. The lithium-ion battery in iPad should be replaced only by
Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, and must be recycled or disposed of separately
from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For information about battery recycling and
replacement, go to www.apple.com/batteries.
Distraction Using iPad in some circumstances may distract you and might cause a dangerous
situation. Observe rules that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile devices or headphones (for
example, avoid texting while driving a car or using headphones while riding a bicycle).
Navigation Maps, directions, Flyover, and location-based apps depend on data services.
Charging Charge iPad with the included cable and power adapter or other third-party “Made for
iPad” cables and power adapters that are compatible with USB 2.0 or later. Using damaged cables
or chargers, or charging when moisture is present, can cause electric shock. When you use the
Apple USB Power Adapter to charge iPad, make sure that the AC plug or AC power cord is fully
inserted into the adapter before you plug it into a power outlet.
Prolonged heat exposure iPad and its power adapter comply with applicable surface
temperature standards and limits. However, even within these limits, sustained contact with
warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. Use common sense
to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device or its power adapter when it’s
operating or plugged into a power source for long periods of time. For example, don’t sleep or
place a device or power adapter under a blanket, pillow, or your body when it’s plugged into a
power source. It’s important to keep iPad and its power adapter in a well-ventilated area when
using or charging them. Take special care if you have a physical condition that aects your ability
to detect heat against the body.
