Maintaining Your Echo Auto

Do not expose your device to extreme heat or cold. Store Echo Auto in a location where temperatures remain within the Echo Auto device storage temperature range set forth in this guide. For example, if your car will be parked in extreme heat or cold conditions for a prolonged period, remove your Echo Auto device from its mount and store it in another place, such as your house.

Echo Auto, the included in-car power adaptor and cables are designed to function within the temperature rating set forth in this guide. If it is too hot or too cold inside the vehicle, Echo Auto may not turn on or function properly until it has cooled or warmed, as the case may be, to within the temperature rating. Echo Auto and its included accessories may become hot during normal use especially in warmer environments. To reduce the risk of overheating or heat-related injuries, keep the device and its accessories well ventilated and use care when handling them.

Your Echo Auto ships with an in-car power adaptor. You should only use the Echo Auto with these included accessories. Do not use the included power adaptor with any other device.

Install your dc power adaptor into an easily accessible socket-outlet located near the equipment that will be plugged into, or powered by, the dc adaptor.

Not recommended to use the device adaptor to charge the device after leaving your car.

Make sure the device or the adaptor are not covered with blanket, clothes or gloves.
