●Do not connect a USB device if a connector,
cable or USB port is wet. Allow the connec-
tor, cable, and USB port to dry completely
before connecting the USB device. (Wait for
24 hours or more until it is dry.) If the con-
nector and USB port are exposed to fluids
other than water, evaporative residue may
cause a short circuit between the connector
pins and USB port. In this case, replace the
cable and USB port. Otherwise damage to
the USB device and a loss of function may
occur.
● If the cable is damaged (insulation cut, con-
nectors cracked, contamination such as liq-
uids, dust, dirt, etc. in the connectors) , do
not use the cable. Replace the cable with a
new one.
● Do not put a USB device in a location where
static electricity occurs, electrical noise is
generated or hot air from the air conditioner
blows directly on it. Doing so may cause the
data stored on the USB device to be cor-
rupted.
