Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and
manufactured to the highest of standards
and should be treated with great care. The
suggestions below will help you to enjoy
your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and
humidity. Precipitation, humidity and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits. Should your phone
become wet, disconnect it immediately
from the power supply to avoid electric
shock. Do not place your phone (even to
dry it) on/in a source of heat such as a
microwave oven, oven or radiator. The
phone may become overheated and
possibly explode.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty,
dirty areas. Its moving parts may be
damaged and the casing may become
deformed and discoloured.
• Do not store your phone in hot
environments (e.g. vehicle instrument
panel in the summer). High temperatures
can shorten the life of electronic devices,
damage batteries and warp or melt
certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold
environments. When the phone warms
up again (to its normal ambient
temperature), moisture can form inside
the phone, which may damage electronic
circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.
Rough handling can damage internal
circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
phone.
• The phone has better protection against
splashes, dust and knocks if the supplied
seals are used.
The suggestions given above apply equally
to your phone, battery, charger and all
accessories.
Battery quality statement
The capacity of your mobile phone battery
will reduce each time it is charged/emptied.
Storage at too high or low temperatures will
also result in a gradual capacity loss. As a
result the operating time of your mobile
phone may be considerably reduced, even
after a full recharge of the battery.
Regardless of this, the battery has been
designed and manufactured so that it can be
recharged and used for six months after the
purchase of your mobile phone. After six
months, if the battery is clearly suffering
from loss of performance, we recommend
that you replace it. Please buy only original
batteries.
Display quality statement
For technological reasons, a few small dots
with different colours may appear in the
display in exceptional cases.
Just remember that the appearance of
brighter or darker dots generally does not
mean that a fault has occurred.
