Make it last
Your phone is a complex electronic device;
think of it as a mini-computer. Here are
some tips to help you extend the life of your
new phone.
Do not get your phone wet.
Even a small
amount of moisture can damage your
phone and accessories.
Protect your phone’s touch screen.
Your
phone’s touch screen is delicate. Guard
against scratches by using a screen
protector or a protective case.
Use the original manufacturer’s batteries
and accessories.
Non-approved batteries
and accessories can harm you and damage
your phone.
Do not use damaged accessories.
If your
charger or any other accessory is damaged,
replace it or take it to a qualified service
dealer. Do not attempt to charge your phone
if the charger has been dropped, received
a sharp blow, or has been otherwise
damaged; doing so may harm your phone.
SAFETy TipS
Consider device compatibility
If you have a pacemaker or a hearing aid,
check with your doctor to make sure it’s
safe for you to use a cell phone. In some
cases, cellular radio frequencies can
disrupt the performance of other electronic
equipment. If you have questions about the
interaction between your phone and any
other piece of electronic equipment, ask the
equipment manufacturer.
Drive safely
T-Mobile encourages you to use your phone
in a safe and sensible manner while driving.
Here are a few safety tips:
n
Assess road conditions before
answering your phone. Your safety
is more important than any call.
n
Prepare your hands-free headset,
if you have one, or turn on your
speakerphone, before you
start moving.
n
Keep your phone close. If it rings
and you discover it’s in the back
seat, do NOT crawl over the seat
to answer it while driving.
