Operating temperature iPad is designed to work in ambient temperatures between 32° and 95°
F (0° and 35° C) and stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). iPad can be
damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges.
Avoid exposing iPad to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. When you’re using iPad or
charging the battery, it is normal for iPad to get warm.
If the interior temperature of iPad exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a hot
car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it
attempts to regulate its temperature:
iPad stops charging.
The screen dims.
A temperature warning screen appears.
Some apps may close.
Important: You may not be able to use iPad while the temperature warning screen is displayed.
If iPad can’t regulate its internal temperature, it goes into deep sleep mode until it cools. Move
iPad to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few minutes before trying to use
iPad again.
