Cleaning and Drying Procedures
Your phone may be cleaned using a mild dish detergent. It may also be cleaned using alcohol or sanitizer
wipes. Please see the proper procedures below.
Precautions
Please read the following precautions carefully before cleaning and drying your phone.
● Remove all accessories, such as screen protector, phone case and cover, and strap. For details,
refer to the instructions that came with your accessory.
● Before cleaning, be sure the headset jack cover, card slot cover, and charger/USB port cover are
closed firmly to maintain the waterproof capability.
● Kyocera has tested cleaning products and determined they will not damage the surfaces of the
phone when used properly. A table containing these products can be found at the end of this
section. See
Kyocera Tested Products .
● Never apply or spray alcohol directly on the phone as it can lead to damage of the coating and
could affect its waterproof capability.
● Never pour liquid detergent directly onto the phone as this may affect the sound quality. If your
phone is exposed to a concentrated liquid detergent, rinse it immediately with fresh water.
● Do not expose your phone to water at high pressure, and avoid immersing the phone in water for
more than 30 minutes to maintain the waterproof capability.
● Clean by hand only. Do not use a hard brush or sponge as this may damage the surface of the
phone and affect phone’s waterproof capability.
● Do not use a washing machine, ultrasonic cleaner, or dishwasher. Doing so may damage the
phone and affect the waterproof capability.
● Remove all jewelry to avoid scratching the surface of the phone.
● Do not attempt to clean your phone in extreme cold or hot conditions. Water can penetrate the
phone during a rapid temperature change. If the phone has been exposed to extreme
temperatures, allow it to return to room temperature before cleaning.
