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 the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of 

small children.



Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids contain 

minerals that will 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 slightly dampened in a 

mild soap-and-water solution.



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, a stove or a radiator. The phone may explode 

when overheated.



When the phone or battery gets wet, the label indicating water 

damage inside the phone changes color. 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. 

Unauthorized 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.
