Care for your phone

To clean the screen:

  • While this does not disinfect your phone, the best way to keep your phone clean is to wipe it thoroughly with a dry soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cloths, including paper towels and other materials with rough surfaces.
  • If the screen gets drops of liquid on it, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth.

To disinfect your phone:

  • It is okay to use wipes or cloths moistened with 70% isopropyl alcohol to gently wipe your screen.
  • When disinfecting or cleaning your phone, turn it off and avoid getting any moisture in its openings, including the charging port, headphone jack, microphones and speakers.
  • Don't submerge your phone in any cleaning agents, avoid using any cleaners with bleach or abrasives, and avoid spraying cleaners directly on the screen.

Dust and water resistance

Water-resistant design creates a barrier to help protect against moderate exposure to fresh water such as accidental spills, splashes or light rain. Not designed to be submerged in water, or exposed to pressurized water, or other liquids; may diminish over time. Designed to provide limited dust protection (>1.0mm). However, ingress of dust is not totally prevented. Not waterproof.

Liquid damage is not covered by your warranty.

To prevent water damage to your phone:

  • Do not expose your phone to pressurized water, salt water or liquids other than fresh water
  • Dry your phone and ports thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth
  • Don’t try to charge your phone when it’s wet
  • Don't drop, puncture, or scratch your phone, as this could damage the water repellent features
