residue may cause malfunction if allowed to dry.
・Do not soak handset in bath or pool; never use it in water
(including key operation).
・Handset is not resistant to water pressure. Avoid high-
pressure water/shower (over 6 liters/min.) and water
immersion.
・Do not expose handset to high humidity for long periods;
avoid prolonged use in bath/shower rooms.
・Volume may be low when an opening such as Mic, Recorder
Mic, Receiver or Speaker is wet; dry handset before use (see
"Drying Handset").
・Charger and other optional accessories are not water or
dust proof. Do not use in high humidity or near water
(outdoors, in bathrooms, shower rooms, etc.); may cause
fire, electric shock or malfunction.
・Do not subject handset to strong impact (e.g., from a fall);
do not poke Mic, Receiver, Speaker, Recorder Mic, Pressure
Vent, etc. with a sharp object; water/dust resistance may
be affected.
・Avoid placing handset directly on sand. Sand may penetrate
Receiver, Speaker, etc., resulting in low volume.
・To prevent condensation, warm handset to room
temperature before bringing it from a cold place into a
warm place such as a bathroom. If condensation occurs,
leave handset at room temperature until it is dry.
・Handset does not float on water.
・Keep handset out of heavy rain.
Charging Cautions
・Never connect Micro USB plug while handset or Charger is
wet.
Handset is water resistant; however, if Micro USB plug
is inserted while it is wet, liquid (tap water, beverage,
sea water, pet urine, etc.) or a foreign object adhered to
handset or Micro USB plug may cause overheating, burnout,
fire, malfunction, burns, etc. due to electric shock, short-
circuiting, etc.
・Do not use Charger where water is regularly in use
(kitchens, bathrooms, shower rooms, etc.); may cause fire or
electric shock.
Care & Maintenance
・Proper care of Card Slot Cover gasket is crucial for
continued handset water/dust resistance. Observe the
following:

・If Card Slot Cover is damaged or deformed, contact a
SoftBank Shop.
・Do not insert a sharp object into Card Slot Cover gap,
Earphones-Microphone Port or External Device Port.
・To maintain water/dust resistance, it is recommended to
replace Card Slot Cover every 2 years regardless of its
condition. Customer-requested Card Slot Cover replacement
incurs fees and requires handset submission. For details,
