To ensure the water resistance (equivalent to IPX5 and IPX8) or the dust resistance (IP6X)
of the product, use the product with the au IC card/microSD memory card tray tightly
closed.
Note that resistance is not guaranteed in every usage condition. Do not allow water to get
inside the product, or splash water on a specified charger (sold separately) or optional
accessories. Do not open/close the au IC card/microSD memory card tray in the rain or
