74Care and maintenance
Your phone has been designed and manufactured to the highest of standards and should be treated with great care and attention. The suggestions below will help you to enjoy your phone for many years.
•Protect your phone from moisture and humidity! Precipitation, hu- midity and liquids contain miner- als that will corrode electronic circuits. Nevertheless, should your phone become wet, disconnect it immediately from the power sup- ply and remove the battery!
•Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts may become damaged.
•Do not store your phone in hot ar- eas. High temperatures can short- en the life of electronic devices, damage batteries and warp or melt certain plastics.
•Do not store your phone in cold ar- eas. When the phone warms up again (to its normal ambient tem- perature), moisture can form in- side the phone, which may damage electronic circuit boards.
•Do not drop, knock or shake your phone. Rough handling can dam- age internal circuit boards!
•Do not use harsh chemicals, clean- ing solvents, or strong detergents to clean the phone!
The suggestions given above apply equally to your phone, battery, charger and all accessories. If any of these parts are not working properly, take them to your nearest qualified service outlet. The personnel there will assist you and, if necessary, repair the device.
