Maintaining water and dust resistance
Your device is water- and dust-resistant and meets the following international
standards.
•
IP68 water resistance rating certification: According to the requirements of the
IEC 60529 standard, it was tested in 15-35 °C, 86-106 kPa, 1.5 m fresh water for
30 minutes without moving.
You must follow the guidelines to maintain the water- and dust-resistance of your
device.
•
Do not expose the device to swimming pool water or sea water.
•
If the device is exposed to unclean water or other liquids, such as soapy water, oil,
perfume, sunscreen, hand cleaner, chemical products such as cosmetics, or liquids
that include the alcohol, clean the device with fresh water that does not flow, wipe
it with a soft and clean cloth, and then dry it thoroughly before use to maintain the
water resistance.
•
Do not expose the device to water moving with force. A sudden rise in the water
pressure may exceed the guaranteed level of water resistance.
•
In places, such as a sauna or steam room, the water-resistant performance may be
damaged because of sudden changes in the temperature.
•
If the device is subjected to an external shock or is damaged, its water resistance
may decrease.
•
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.
•
The back cover may be loosened if the device is dropped or receives an impact.
Ensure that all the covers are properly aligned and tightly closed.
