Maintenance and Cleaning

The e280/e280s V2 device has no user-maintainable parts. It can, however, be 
cleaned.

General Care 

Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be 
treated with care. The following suggestions will help you protect your warranty 
coverage.

•

Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture 
can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your device gets 
wet, switch off the power and allow the device to dry completely before 
replacing it.

•

Do not use or store the device in dusty and dirty areas. Its moving parts and 
electronic components can get damaged.

•

Do not store the device in hot areas. The high temperature can shorten the life 
of electronic devices, damage batteries or melt certain plastics.

•

Do not store the device in cold areas. It can form moisture inside the device 
and damage electronic circuit boards when the device returns to its normal 
temperature.

•

Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal 
circuit boards and fine mechanics.

•

Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper 
operation.

•

Keep the device free from any small and loose items (such as paper clips, 
staples, or coins) that could accidentally get inside it through an opening, such 
as the SAM slots or the primary smart card reader slot.

•

Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide. This 
device has security features that protect it from tampering. For example, the 
file content will be deleted if the device’s outer casing is opened.

•

Use only the power adapter that came with your device. Adapters of other 
electronic devices may look similar, but they may affect your device’s 
performance or damage it.

•

Do not use this device in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. 
Follow all signs and instructions. Potentially explosive atmosphere includes 
areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. 
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury 
or even death.
