»Don’t try to charge your phone when it’s wet.
»Don’t expose your phone to salt water or other liquids other than fresh
water.
»Don’t expose your phone to water at high pressure.
»Don't drop, puncture, or scratch your phone, as this could damage the
water repellent features.
Clean your phone
To disinfect your phone:
»Use wipes or cloths moistened with isopropyl alcohol with a
concentration of 70% (specific for electro-electronic products).
