17. Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior
design and craftsmanship and should
be treated with care. The suggestions
below will help you protect your
warranty coverage.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation,
humidity and all types of liquids or
moisture can contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits. If
your device does get wet, remove
the battery and allow the device to
dry completely before replacing it.
• Do not use or store the device in
dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts
and electronic components can be
damaged.
• Do not store the device in hot
areas. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and
warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the device in cold
areas. When the device returns to
its normal temperature, moisture
can form inside the device and
damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the device
other than as instructed in this
guide.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the
device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can
clog the moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
• Use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean
any lenses (such as camera,
proximity sensor, and light sensor
lenses).
• Use only the supplied or an
approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorised antennas,
modifications, or attachments
could damage the device and may
violate regulations governing radio
devices.
• Use chargers indoors.
• Always create a backup of data you
want to keep, such as contacts and
calendar notes, before sending
your device to a service facility.
All of the above suggestions apply
equally to your device, battery,
charger, or any enhancement. If any
device is not working properly, take it
to the nearest authorised service
facility for service.
