Leaving the sun cover in place while the boat is moving could result in the sun cover becoming detached and possibly becoming lost or falling into the water. Some protective covers contain magnets. Under certain circumstances, magnets may cause damage to some electronic devices, including hard drives in laptop computers. Use caution when the sun cover is near electronic devices. The protective cover protects the screen when the device is not in use. To remove the cover, hold the edge, and pull forward.
