*1
and
IPX7 (former JIS protection code 7)
*2
standards if the external
connector terminal cover is securely closed as well as the back
cover is attached and locked.
*1 IPX5 means that SH-08A phone keeps functioning after being subjected
to a jet flow (approximately 12.5 liters/min.) discharged from a nozzle
(inner diameter: 6.3 mm), from all directions (approximately 3 m from
the handset) for 3 minutes or more.
*2 IPX7 means that SH-08A phone keeps functioning after it is slowly
submerged to depth of 1 m in static tap water at room temperature, left
there for approximately 30 minutes and then taken out.
Call or watch 1Seg programs without using an umbrella in the rain (for
rainfall of approximately 20 mm per hour).
Rinse off dirt from the FOMA terminal. Wash the FOMA terminal with
low-pressure water flow (6 liters/min. or lower and tap water at room
temperature (between 5°C and 35°C)), holding it approximately 10 cm
below faucet or shower head. Wash by using only your hands, not a
brush or sponge, with the back cover attached and locked, and the
external connector terminal cover held in position. Drain the handset
before use (

P. 26).
Use the FOMA terminal at a poolside. Do not soak the FOMA terminal in
the water of a swimming pool. If the FOMA terminal gets wet with water
from the swimming pool, wash it as described above.
Use the FOMA terminal in a bathroom. Do not soak the FOMA terminal in
the bathtub.
To maintain waterproof performance, check the followings.
Securely close the external connector terminal cover and the back cover.
Be careful not to place too much force on the rubber gasket when
opening and closing them.
Make sure that the external connector terminal cover and the back cover
are completely closed without floating.
Before using, make sure that the back cover lever is at the LOCK
position.
The external connector terminal cover and the back cover are structured
to be closed securely to maintain the waterproof performance. Note that,
if trying to open them forcibly, your nail or finger may be injured.
