KUBO’s safety requirements #
Do not disassemble KUBO. Doing so will void any warranties, implied or otherwise. Be careful when handling KUBO. Applying excessive force or dropping it may cause permanent damage.
To reduce the risk of fire and burns, do not attempt to open, disassemble, or service the battery pack. Do not crush, puncture, short external contacts, expose to temperatures above 60°C (140°F), or dispose KUBO in fire or water.
Battery chargers used with the device must be examined regularly for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure, and other parts. In the event of such damage, do not use the cable until the damage has been repaired. The battery is 3.7V, 800mAH (3.7*0.800=3W). The max. operating current is 700mA.

How to take care of KUBO #
You can use a damp cloth to clean the TagTiles and the Activity Map.
Always use a dry cloth to clean KUBO.
The TagTiles are very resilient and water resistant. However, we recommend that you keep them away from areas of water or sand. We also recommend that you keep the TagTiles in the storage box they came in. You will need the packaging if you need to make a claim.
The activity map included in the 1030 KUBO Starter Set is made of a resilient card. Please keep it away from water, sand, or other abrasive materials. We also recommend that you keep it in the original box.
The activity map included in the original tube is made of natural fibers and is therefore very resilient. You can wipe it with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Store it in the tube or on a flat surface, ideally in a drawer or under a protective cover.
It might also be helpful to tape the maps to the table while the students carry out their activities. By doing so, the maps will not move around or become uneven. This does not apply to the activity map included in the 1030 KUBO Coding Starter Set.
