pinched, resulting in injury.

Do not use or keep the product in places with extremely high temperature (places in 
direct sunlight, close to a heater, in a closed car, etc.) or high humidity (bathroom, 
outside on a rainy day, etc.). Doing so may result in deformation, discoloration, 
damage or deterioration.

When cleaning the product, do not use benzine, thinner or alcohol as it may result in 
discoloration or deformation. Please wipe with a soft cloth or a damp cloth that has
