Important safety information

WARNING:  

Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire, electric shock,

injury, or damage to iPhone or other property. Read all the safety information below before

using iPhone.

Handling  Handle iPhone with care. It is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive

electronic components inside. iPhone can be damaged if dropped, burned, punctured, or

crushed, or if it comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged iPhone, such as one with a

cracked screen, as it may cause injury. If you’re concerned about scratching the surface of iPhone,

consider using a case or cover.

Repairing  Don’t open iPhone and don’t attempt to repair iPhone yourself. Disassembling iPhone

may damage it or may cause injury to you. If iPhone is damaged, malfunctions, or comes in

contact with liquid, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can find more

information about getting service at

www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/

.

Battery  Don’t attempt to replace the iPhone battery yourself—you may damage the battery,

which could cause overheating and injury. The lithium-ion battery in iPhone should be replaced

only by Apple or an authorized service provider, and must be recycled or disposed of separately

from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For information about battery service and

recycling, see

www.apple.com/batteries/service-and-recycling/

.

Distraction  Using iPhone in some circumstances can distract you and may cause a dangerous

situation (for example, avoid using headphones while riding a bicycle and avoid texting while

driving a car). Observe rules that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile phones or headphones.

Navigation  Maps, directions, Flyover, and location-based apps depend on data services.

These data services are subject to change and may not be available in all areas, resulting in

maps, directions, Flyover, or location-based information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or

incomplete. Some Maps features require Location Services. Compare the information provided

on iPhone to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to resolve any discrepancies. Do not

use these services while performing activities that require your full attention. Always comply

with posted signs and the laws and regulations in the areas where you are using iPhone and

always use common sense.
