3
dust protection standard, with
External Device Port Cover (hereafter
"Port Cover") and Battery Cover closed
firmly.
1
IPX5 compliant means that a handset
continues to function as a phone after being
subjected to a water jet (approximately
12.5 liters/min.) discharged from a nozzle
(inner diameter: 6.3 mm), from all directions
(approximately 3 m from handset) for at
least 3 minutes.
2
IPX7 compliant means that a handset
continues to function as a phone after being
gently submerged to the depth of 1 m in still
tap water at room temperature, left there for
approximately 30 minutes, then removed
from it.
3
IP5X compliant means that a handset
continues to function as a phone and its
safety is maintained after being agitated in a
device containing dust of 75 µm or smaller
in diameter for 8 hours, then removed from
the device.
.
Water/dust resistance may be affected
under some circumstances. Warranty
does not cover malfunctions resulting
from misuse.
.
Handset is compliant with IPX5, IPX7
and IP5X water/dust protection
standards. However, ingress of dirt,
sand, mud, metal powder, food,
beverage, etc. may cause malfunction.
.
Do not subject handset to soap, detergent,
bath powder/oil, sea/pool/spa water, hot
water, etc.
