18 Barnes & Noble NOOK User Guide
Electronic Equipment
If you are around sensitive electronic equipment–for example, if you are in a hospital–ask if you may use your
NOOK. Settings such as intensive care units might forbid the use of any electronic device, with or without network-
ing turned on.
Battery
Your NOOK includes a non-replaceable, rechargeable battery. Do not attempt to replace the battery. If you suspect
your battery is having problems, please contact Customer Service at
1-800-THE-BOOK (1-800-843-2665).
Caring for Your NOOK
To take the best possible care of your NOOK, please follow the recommendations below.
Temperature Ranges
Your NOOK should function as designed in these temperature ranges:
• Operation: 0 C to 35 C, 32 F to 95 F
• Storage: -25 C to 60 C, -13 F to 140 F
Outside of these ranges, your NOOK might develop power, display, and/or software issues. If temperatures are ex-
tremely cold or hot, permanent physical damage can result. Such damage is not covered by the limited warranty. Stor-
age applies to temporary locations like the trunk of your car (or other motor vehicle) as well as long-term storage.
Even on a day that is not very hot, the passenger compartment or trunk of a car can be extremely hot. Do not leave
your NOOK in a car.
High storage temperatures reduce battery life. For more information, see “Charging Recommendations”.
Caring for the Touchscreen
You should clean the touchscreen on your NOOK from time to time. Clean the screen with a damp soft cloth, such
as a micro-fiber cloth. Micro-fiber cloths are available from Barnes & Noble stores and from partner retailers. Do not
use any chemicals to clean the screen.
B&N and Designer Covers
You can purchase an optional B&N or designer cover for your NOOK at your local Barnes & Noble Bookstore, at
partner retailers, and online at BN.com. The cover helps protect your NOOK from daily wear and tear. It keeps dust
from accumulating on the screen, reducing the need to clean it. The cover also provides some protection against
spills.
Limited Warranty Coverage and the B&N Protection Plan
Your NOOK is backed by a one-year manufacturer’s limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
For a copy of this limited warranty, see “One Year Limited Warranty”. The limited warranty is also available at:
NOOK.com/warranty
In the event of any changes to the limited warranty, the version in eect on the Web site as of the date of purchase
shall apply.
