ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone
while the plane is in the air.

Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting
area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off.
Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn your phone off when you are in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks.
Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:

● Fueling areas such as gas stations.
● Below deck on boats.
● Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
● Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal

powders.

● Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s

engine.

Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or explosives in the

compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone

Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt
themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your invoice.

Waterproof Capability

Your Hydro LIFE is waterproof and meets IPX5 and IPX7 standards, immersible for up to
30 minutes at a depth not exceeding one meter (about 3.28 feet). Exposing your phone
to water outside these limits or not following the precautions can result in water
damage.

To ensure that your phone maintains waterproof capability, the following precautions
must be observed.

● Make sure the battery cover is properly sealed by squeezing around the edges of

the cover. The charger/accessory jack and headset jack ports do not have covers
because they are waterproof.
