Your smartphone is waterproof and dust resistant in compliance with the Ingress Protection ratings IP5X, IPX5 and IPX8 (see details below). Always firmly attach all covers to ensure the water and dust resistance of the device. If liquid is detected inside the device, for example, underneath one of the covers or on the battery, your warranty will be void. Never submerge your device in salt water or let the micro USB port or headset jack come in contact with salt water. Also, never expose the device to any liquid chemicals, or to moist environments with extreme high or low temperatures. The waterproof ability of the micro USB port and the headset jack is not guaranteed in all environments or conditions. After using the device in water, dry off the areas around the micro USB port cover and the headset jack cover.
If the speaker or microphone get wet, dry these areas and wait for three hours before using them again. You can, however, use other features in the device that do not utilise the speaker or microphone.
All compatible accessories, including batteries, chargers, handsfree devices and micro USB cables, are not waterproof and dust resistant on their own.
Your warranty does not cover damage or defects caused by abuse or improper use of your device. If you have any further questions about the use of your products, refer to our Customer support service for help.
