this handset continues to function as a phone and
no water seeps inside after being gently lowered
into a tank filled with still tap water (at room
temperature) to the depth of 1 m, and immersed at
the bottom for approximately 30 minutes.
3
IP5X protection standard compliant means that
ingress of dust (75 µm or smaller in diameter;
used in the dustproof test) will not affect
performance or safety of this handset.
