Never immerse your device in salt water or let the micro USB port or headset jack come
in contact with salt water. For example, if you’re at the beach, remember to keep your
device away from the sea water. Also, never expose the device to any liquid chemicals.
For example, if you’re washing dishes by hand using liquid detergent, avoid bringing your
device in contact with the detergent. After exposure to non-fresh water, rinse your device
using fresh water.
Normal wear and tear along with damage to your device can reduce its ability to resist
dust or moisture. After using the device in water, dry off the areas around all covers,
including the covers for the micro USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot.
If the speaker or microphone get wet, their function may be impacted until the water has
completely dried. Please note that the drying time can be up to three hours depending
on the environment. During this time, you can, however, use other features in the device
that do not utilize the speaker or microphone. All compatible accessories, including
batteries, chargers, handsfree devices and micro USB cables, are not waterproof and
dust resistant on their own.
Your warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by abuse or improper use of
your device (including use in environments where the relevant IP rating limitations are
exceeded). If you have any further questions about the use of your products, refer to our
Customer support service for help.
IP (Ingress Protection) rating
Your device has an IP rating, which means it has undergone certified tests to measure its
resistance levels to both dust and water. The first digit in the two-digit IP rating indicates
the level of protection against solid objects, including dust. The second digit indicates
how resistant the device is to water.
