Maintaining the Vehicle Computer
For trouble-free service, observe the following tips when using the vehicle computer:
•
Take care not to scratch the screen of the vehicle computer. When working with the vehicle computer,
use your finger tip or plastic-tipped pens intended for use with a touch-sensitive screen. Never use an
actual pen or pencil or other sharp object on the surface of the vehicle computer screen.
•
Use screen protector at all time. See Accessories on page 1-4 for replacement screen protectors.
•
Although the vehicle computer is water and dust resistant, do not expose it to rain or moisture for an
extended period of time. In general, treat the vehicle computer as you would any other electronic device.
•
The screen of the vehicle computer is glass. Do not to drop the vehicle computer or subject it to strong
impact.
•
Protect the vehicle computer from temperature extremes.
•
Do not store or use the vehicle computer in any location that is extremely dusty, damp, or wet.
•
Use a soft lens cloth to clean the vehicle computer. If the surface of the vehicle computer screen
becomes soiled, clean it with a soft cloth moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.
•
Periodically check nuts and bolts to ensure they are tightened to the proper torque.
•
Ensure that you have spare screws when changing desiccant bags and SD cards.
