5 Taking Care of your Device
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be handled with care: The following
suggestions will help you protect your phone:
• Use a dry soft cloth to wipe general dirt.
• Do not use a hard cloth, benzene or thinner to wipe the phone, otherwise, the surface of the phone will be
scratched or could even result in the fading of color.
• Always keep the small parts of the phone away from children.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will
rust electronic circuits. If your device does get wet, remove the battery, and allow the device to dry completely
before replacing it.
• Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and electronic components can be
damaged.
• Do not store the device in high or cold temperature. High temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices
and damage batteries.
• Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the device. Only use a soft, clean,
dry cloth to clean the surface of the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Use indoor chargers only.
