C (up to 40

C for brief

periods in bathrooms, shower rooms, etc.) and 35% - 90%
humidity.

・Do not subject handset to strong impact; do not poke Mic,

Earpiece, Speaker, etc. with a cotton swab or sharp object;
water resistance may be affected.

・Avoid placing handset directly on sand. Sand may penetrate

Earpiece, Speaker, etc., resulting in low volume.

with wet fingers.

・Do not move handset directly from a cold place to a warm

humid place; condensation may occur. Should this happen,
dry handset naturally at room temperature.

・Handset does not float on water.

・Do not let liquid-exposed handset remain wet; exposure to

cold may freeze liquid causing malfunction.

・Damaged Card Slot Cover affects water resistance; contact

a SoftBank Shop.

malfunction or burns due to electric shock or short
circuiting. Be sure to dry it before use.

occur.

・Do not use Charger in rooms in which water is regularly in

use (kitchens, bathrooms, shower rooms, etc.); may cause
fire or electric shock.

・If External Device Port is exposed to liquid, never charge

handset; follow these steps first:
1 Holding handset firmly by its sides, shake it about 20
times
2 Pat against dry cloth to remove moisture from External
Device Port
3 Leave handset on dry cloth for approximately 2 - 3 hours
at room temperature

・Proper care of Card Slot Cover gasket is crucial for

continued handset water resistance. Observe the following:
・Do not remove or damage gasket. Keep it clean.
・Do not insert sharp objects into Card Slot Cover gap,
Headphone Port or External Device Port; may damage gasket
and affect water resistance.
・If Card Slot Cover is damaged or deformed, contact a
SoftBank Shop.

・To maintain water resistance, replace Card Slot Cover every

2 years regardless of its condition. Customer-requested
Card Slot Cover replacement incurs fees and requires
handset submission. For details, contact a SoftBank Shop or
SoftBank Customer Support,
