2222Maintenance  & accessories
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should 
be treated with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfill any 
warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this product for many years. 
When using your wireless phone, battery, charger or any accessory:
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of 
small children.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids  contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas as its moving parts  can be damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten  the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain 
plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone warms up to its  normal operating temperature, moisture can form inside the phone, 
which may damage the electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the phone (other than to change covers). Non- expert handling may cause damage.
• Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough handling can break  internal circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or strong detergents to  clean the phone. 
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent  proper operation.
• Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage  the phone and may violate regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not working properly,  take it to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there 
will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
