Maintaining water and dust resistance

This device is rated IP67 using the Ingress Protection rating
system. The dust rating is 6 (highest level of protection), and
the water resistance rating is 7 (water resistant up to 1 meter

for up to 30 minutes). Despite this classification, your device
is not impervious to water damage in any situation. It is
important that all compartments are closed tightly.

Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device.

Whenever your device gets wet, dry it thoroughly with a clean,

soft cloth.

Do not expose the device to salt water or ionized water, or to

water over 1 meter deep for more than 30 minutes. If your device
is exposed to salt water, wash the device with fresh water then
dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. Otherwise, when it dries,
salt may accumulate and block the microphone, earpiece, and
speaker.

When drying off your device, be sure to pat the earpiece (top front
of phone), microphone (bottom of phone), and speaker (rear of
phone) with a clean, soft cloth to remove as much water as
possible.

When making a call immediately after your device is wet, the

microphone may have water in it which may lower the volume
that the other person will hear. After drying off the device, allow
the device to air-dry before making a call.

The back and multipurpose jack covers may be loosened slightly

if the device is dropped or receives an impact. Ensure that all the
covers are properly aligned and tightly closed. Otherwise, they
may not provide protection from water and dust.

Always keep the multipurpose jack cover clean and be careful to

avoid damaging it.

Note: The touch screen may not be active in water.
