Storage.
Do not expose the Remote Control or Charging System
components to excessively hot or cold conditions. Do not leave the
devices in your car or outdoors for extended periods of time. The
sensitive electronics can be damaged by temperature extremes,
particularly high heat. If the Remote Control or the Charging System
is to be stored for a period of time, be careful that the storage
temperature does not exceed -20–60 °C (-4–140 °F).

Handling.
Handle the system components and accessories with care.
Do not drop them or submerge them in water. Although reliability
testing has been performed to ensure quality manufacturing and
performance, dropping the devices on hard surfaces or in water, or
other rough handling, can permanently damage the components. (See
“Limited Warranty” on page 52.)
