Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device and maintain dust and
water resistance performance:
CAUTION To avoid electric shock and damage to your device, do not charge
device while it is wet or in an area where it could get wet. Do not handle device,
charger or cords with wet hands while charging.
Water resistant based on IP68 rating, which tests submersion in fresh water deeper
l
than 1.5 meters or keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes. If your device is
exposed to fresh water, shake it to remove any excess water and dry the device
thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
If your device is exposed to liquids other than fresh water (such as saltwater), rinse
l
your device with fresh water and dry it with a clean, soft cloth and shake it to
remove any excess water.
Any device which uses accessible compartments or ports that can be opened
l
should have these sealed or closed tightly to prevent liquid from entering the
system.

l
sound may not be heard clearly during a call while the device is immersed or the
microphone or speaker is wet.

Samsung-authorized service center for inspection.
