Precautions for operating environment
Your device may heat up due to the environment in the following conditions. Use caution to
avoid shortening the battery’s lifespan, damaging the device, or causing a fire.
•
Do not store your device in very cold or very hot temperatures.
•
Do not expose your device to direct sunlight for extended periods.
•
Do not use or store your device for extended periods in very hot areas, such as inside a
car in the summertime.
•
Do not place the device in any areas that may overheat, such as on an electric heating
mat.
•
Do not store your device near or in heaters, microwaves, hot cooking equipment, or high
pressure containers.
•
Never use a damaged charger or battery.
Maintaining water and dust resistance
Your device supports water- and dust-resistance. Follow these tips carefully to maintain the
water- and dust-resistance of your device. Failure to do so may result in damage to your
device.
•
Do not immerse the device in fresh water deeper than 1.5 m or keep it submerged for
more than 30 minutes. If you immerse the device in any liquid other than fresh water,
such as salt water, ionised water, or alcoholic beverage, liquid will enter the device faster.
•
Ensure that the back cover is tightly closed. Otherwise, it may not provide protection
from water and dust.
•
Do not immerse the device in water for extended periods.
•
Do not expose the device to
water moving with force
, such as running water from taps,
ocean waves, or waterfalls.
•
Do not open the device’s covers when the device is in water or in very humid places, such
as swimming pools or bathrooms.
•
Do not open the back cover using wet hands or when the device is wet.
•
The rubber seal fitted to the back cover
is an important component of the device. Take
care when opening and closing the back cover to avoid damaging the rubber seal. Also,
ensure that the rubber seal is free from debris, such as sand or dust to prevent damage to
the device.
