Maintenance

Maintaining the smartphone in optimal condition helps give it a very long service life.

There are several ways to make sure the phone remains in top condition.

Use a Case

A form-fitting, shock-absorbing case helps to protect the phone from more than just the occasional scratch or nick. A case can protect against shock from drops, impacts or neglect.

The Display

The touchscreen is a very sensitive, durable but also carefully engineered interactive surface. Scratches, excessive pressure and impacts damage the screen’s ability to sense contact and to display.

Do not use excessive force when touching the screen and do not subject it to impacts.

Avoid Drops and Shocks

This smartphone is a highly complex, precision-made electronic device. Impacts, drops and shocks can damage or even destroy the phone. The touchscreen is especially vulnerable to impacts.

Avoid Water

Water is devastating to electronic devices. Avoid exposure to water and high humidity. If the phone is immersed in water, ensure that it is turned off. Do not reactivate the phone until it is completely dry. The best idea is to have it serviced.
