Care and maintenance

Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many years.

• Keep your phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children and pets. They may accidentally damage these things or choke on small parts.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids contain minerals that corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the phone.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, which may damage the phone’s electronic circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth.
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave oven, stove, or radiator. The phone may explode when overheated.
• When the phone or battery gets wet, the label indicating water damage inside the phone changes colour. In this case, phone repairs are no longer guaranteed by the manufacturer's warranty, even if the warranty for your phone has not expired.
• If your phone has a flash or light, do not use it too close to the eyes of people or animals. This may cause damage to their eyes.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas or modified accessories may damage the phone and violate regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is not working properly, take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
