I freely offer these handy tips in case an accident happens with your Kobo ebook reader.*
1) If you’re taking a bubble bath and drop your ebook reader into the tub, quickly rinse it off with lukewarm water to remove any soap bubbles before drying with a hair blower.
2) If you accidentally step on your ebook, always make certain that you first take off your boots to determine if any damage has occurred to the soles of your shoes or to your hardwood floor.
3) If you sit on your ebook, it’s important to first determine if any glass has embedded itself in your posterior. If so, carefully remove the glass, using a hand-held mirror and pliers for exact results.
4) Never leave your ebook in the car when visiting Arizona, Nevada, or New Mexico! If this happens, quickly turn on the air-conditioner and then carefully examine your seat or the dash board – wherever you happened to have left your ebook. If the ebook is too hot to touch, quickly cover it with a cloth or blanket until the ebook has cooled off sufficiently - which may take 9 or 10 months - when the season changes.
5) If your dog is cursed with a restless bladder, remove the dog from the site of the accident. At this point, you can elect to take a bubble bath and then quickly rinse off your ebook reader, removing all traces of urine, and then carefully wipe away all the soap bubbles before applying lukewarm water. After that, you may safely dry the unit with your wife’s hair blower. Always keep in mind that urine is very corrosive to ebook readers. They should never be immersed in the toilet, for example, even if it's clean.
Remember, the above tips are here for your benefit. I’ve used them on all 28 of my ebook readers, although (for some unexplainable reason), I currently have only one working unit.
Although I cannot guarantee that your results will be the same as mine, they most likely will be.
I hope I have been of some help in this matter regarding ebook safety.
