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
● 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.
