:
Cold temperatures or using Bluetooth wireless technology, Wi-Fi, or the wireless
cellular modem consumes additional battery power and so shortens battery life between
charges.

Electrostatic discharge
Static electricity will destroy internal electronic components.
To prevent electrostatic damage: before touching any internal electronic components
internal, such as memory module, make certain you have released the static carried by the
body. A way you can take is to touch unpainted metal surface first.
S7 series is designed for outdoor use but it can discharge under low humidity or very high
voltage condition. Users should avoid touching the handheld side sunk port with fingers,
thus can minimize the risk of discharging to sensitive electronic component.
