8.1 Maintaining your phone
Your phone is a well-designed and engineered product and the following tips
and suggestions will enable you to obtain the best use of your phone for many
years.
Keep the phone in a dry environment. If the phone or battery were
to get wet due to misuse, this can invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
Do not use the phone with wet hands to avoid any shocks and
risks of water entering into the device, thereby increasing the risk of
damage to internal circuits. This applies also if you have to replace the SIM
or micro SD card inside the phone for whatever reason.
Keep the phone and its accessories out of reach of young children
and pets. They may accidentally damage the phone or risk swallowing the
smaller components.
Avoid storing the phone in hot environments as high temperatures
can shorten the life of electronic components. There is the risk that the
plastic casing can warp or melt if the temperature is high enough.
Also please avoid storing the phone in cold environments. When the phone
is switched on and warms up to its normal operating temperature, moisture
can form inside the devices which may damage the circuit boards internally.
Avoid dropping or any hard knocks to the phone as these shocks
can damage the internal circuit boards.
If you need to clean the phone, wipe it with a soft clean cloth – avoid use of
cleaning solvents or detergents. DO NOT use water to clean the LCD
screen.
Do not attempt to respray or paint the phone.
Do not keep the phone in or near heat sources such as a radiator or
microwave oven – this can cause the battery inside the phone to overheat
and explode.
Ensure that the volume is turned down if you are using headphones.
