Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated
with care. The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty coverage.
•
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture
can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your device does
get wet, remove the battery and allow the device to dry completely before
replacing it.
•
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.
•
Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life
of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
•
Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal
temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic
circuit boards.
•
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
•
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean
the device.
•
Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
•
Do not touch the main display with hard or angular materials. Objects like
earrings or jewelry may scratch the display.
•
Use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean any lenses (such as camera, proximity
sensor, and light sensor lenses).
•
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the device and may
violate regulations governing radio devices.
•
Use chargers indoors.
•
Always create a backup of data you want to keep (such as contacts and
calendar notes) before sending your device to a service facility.
All of the above suggestions apply equally to your device, battery, charger,
or any enhancement. If any device is not working properly, take it to the nearest
authorized service facility for service.
