Health and Safety Information
166
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation and humidity contain minerals that
may corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric
shock to you or damage to the phone.
Do not use or store the phone in dusty or dirty areas. Moving parts may
become damaged or clogged.
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the
life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics.
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its
normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone,
which may damage the phone’s electronic circuit boards.
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to
clean the phone. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild
soap-and-water solution.
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and
prevent proper operation.
Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as a microwave
oven, a stove or a radiator. The phone may explode when overheated.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas or modified accessories may damage the phone
and violate regulations governing radio devices.
If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not working properly,
take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
