Using your device in wet and dusty conditions

To ensure the water resistance of your device, all covers, including the covers for the micro
USB port, the SIM card slot and the memory card slot, must be firmly closed.
Your smart device is waterproof and dust resistant in compliance with the Ingress
Protection (IP) ratings IP55 and IP58, as explained in the table below. To view more
specific IP information about your device, go to
legal/testresults/ and click on the relevant device name.
These specific IP ratings mean that your device is dust resistant and is protected
against low pressure water stream as well as against the effects of immersion for 30
minutes in fresh (non-saline) water up to 1.5 metres deep.
You can use your device:
•
in dusty environments, for example, on a windy beach.
•
when your fingers are wet.
•
in some extreme weather conditions, for example, when it's snowing or raining.
•
in fresh (non-saline) water depths of 1.5 metres or less, for example, in a fresh water
lake or river.
•
in a chlorinated swimming pool.
