Safety

⚠️ WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

A faulty electrical installation or a mains voltage that is too high can lead to an electric shock. Before use, check the mains voltage of the socket against the information on the rating plate. Connect the mains adapter so that it is easily accessible to quickly disconnect the charging cable in case of a fault. If you notice any visible damage to your GPS tracker or the charging cable, do not use it. Only use the original parts supplied to charge the GPS tracker. If the charging cable is damaged, replace it only with original accessories from the manufacturer. Never place the GPS tracker near flames or hot surfaces. The GPS tracker is not waterproof; use it in dry environments if possible. The charging cable should only be used indoors. Keep it away from moisture and do not bend it. Do not open the housing of the GPS tracker. Leave repair work to qualified specialists.

The Battery

⚠️ WARNING! EXPLOSION AND FIRE HAZARD!

The GPS tracker is powered by a lithium polymer battery, which is not replaceable and must not be removed or opened. Keep the GPS tracker away from heat sources and high temperatures, such as direct sunlight in a vehicle (even when charging). Failure to observe this warning may result in battery destruction, overheating, explosion, and fire. These hazards also exist if you use non-original accessories to charge your device. Do not burn or puncture the GPS tracker. Protect it from mechanical damage. Do not remove, drop, disassemble, or modify the battery with pointed or sharp objects. If a child swallows the battery, seek medical help immediately! For battery replacement, please contact our support team.

⚠️ WARNING! RISK OF CHEMICAL BURNS!

Batteries that leak due to damage can cause burns if they come into contact with the skin. Therefore, never open the battery. If the battery leaks, please wear protective gloves.

9. Electromagnetic Compatibility

Please observe all prohibitions and switch off the GPS tracker immediately in dangerous areas or if it can cause interference. It should not be used near medical equipment, fuels, chemicals, or in blasting areas. Mobile devices may cause interference affecting performance. Avoid transformers and very strong magnetic fields, as this may cause transmission deviations.

? NOTE! Failure to observe these recommendations may result in malfunctions or damage to the GPS tracker.
