Maintaining water and dust resistance
The device may be damaged if water or dust enters the device. Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to 
the device and to maintain the water- and dust-resistant performance of the device.
 
● Do not immerse the device in water deeper than 1 m and keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes.
 
● Do not expose the device to water moving with force, such as water running from a tap, ocean waves, 
or waterfalls.
 
● If the device or your hands are wet, dry them thoroughly before handling the device.
 
● If the device is exposed to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. If the device is 
exposed to any liquid other than freshwater, rinse the device with fresh water immediately and dry it 
thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
 
● If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the water and dust resistant features of the device may 
be damaged.
 
● If the device has been immersed in water or the microphone or the speaker is wet, sound may not be 
heard clearly during a call. Ensure that the microphone or the speaker is clean and dry by wiping it 
with a dry cloth.
 
● The touch screen and other features may not work properly if the device is used in water or in other 
liquids.
 
● Your device has been tested in a controlled environment and shown to be water and dust resistant in 
certain circumstances (meets requirements of classification IP67 as described by the international 
standard IEC 60529 - Degrees of Protection provided by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15 - 35 
°C, 86 - 106 kPa, 1 meter, for 30 minutes). Despite this classification, your device is not impervious to 
water damage in any situation.
