infected with a virus.
When using your device to browse the Internet, do not visit websites that might pose a
•
security risk to avoid your personal information from being stolen.
If you use services such as the portable Wi-Fi hotspot or Bluetooth, set passwords for these
•
services to prevent unauthorized access. Turn these services off when they are not in use.
Install device security software and regularly scan for viruses.
•
Using unauthorized third-party software to update your device may damage your device or
•
put your personal information at risk. It is recommended that you update through your
