Phone care
Use these guidelines to optimize the performance and life of your phone, antenna, and battery.
Phone
❑ Do not let unauthorized personnel install or service your phone or accessories.
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
❑ Only use approved accessories. Use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and
will invalidate your phone warranty if the accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone.
❑ Keep the phone dry. If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately. Let it dry before
you use it again. In general, treat the Kyocera 7135 smartphone as you would a pocket
calculator or other small electronic instrument.
❑ To avoid scratching the screen, always use the stylus or other plastic-tipped pen intended
for a touch-sensitive screen. Never use a pen, pencil, or other sharp object on the surface of
the screen.
❑ Treat the phone gently. The touch-sensitive screen contains a glass element. Do not drop the
phone or subject it to any strong impact. Do not carry your phone in your back pocket. If you
sit on it, the glass may break.
❑ Protect the phone from temperature extremes. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car on a
hot day, and keep it away from heaters and other heat sources. Store it out of direct sunlight.
❑ Do not store or use the phone in any location that is extremely dusty, damp, or wet.
❑ Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the phone. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the screen.
❑ Avoid using suntan lotion around the phone. Chemicals in suntan lotions can damage
your phone.
Antenna
❑ Fully extend the antenna when you place or receive a call.
❑ Do not touch the antenna while you are on a call. Do not bend or twist the antenna.
❑ When using the headset, keep the headset wire away from the antenna.
❑ When using the phone to connect to the Internet or send and receive email, make sure the
extended antenna is at least 20 centimeters (8 inches) away from other people and is pointed
away from them.
Battery
The Kyocera 7135 smartphone has a rechargeable lithium ion battery. You can charge the phone
battery in either of these ways:
■ Plug the power cable directly into the base of the phone. Plug the other end into an
AC power outlet.
