• Storage: Store the guitar in its provided carrying case when not in use to protect it from dust, humidity changes, and physical damage. Avoid extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Battery Care: For optimal battery life, avoid fully discharging the guitar's internal battery frequently. If storing for extended periods, charge the battery to approximately 50-70%.
