Handling precautions

General notes

SH-08A is waterproof, however, do not
allow water to seep into the FOMA
terminal and do not allow accessories
or optional parts to get wet.
The FOMA terminal is waterproof to IPX5 and
IPX7 standards if the external connector
terminal cover is securely closed as well as
the back cover is attached and locked,
however, it is not completely waterproof. In
the rain or with the handset wet, do not
attach/remove the battery pack or open/close
the external connector terminal cover or back
cover. Seeped water may cause corrosion
inside the terminal. Accessories and optional
parts are not waterproof. Note that if problem
is found to be due to moisture, handset and
parts are not covered by warranty and in
some cases may be irreparable. Even where
repairs are possible, repair charges will be
incurred since damage is not covered by
warranty.

Clean only with a soft and dry cloth
(such as the type used for eyeglasses).
The surface of the handset's LCD has a
special coating to improve the visibility of the
color display. Forceful rubbing of LCD with a
dry cloth may scratch LCD surface. Handle
the handset carefully and clean using a soft
and dry cloth (such as the type used for
eyeglasses). Note also that LCD coating may
peel off or stain if moisture or soiling is left on
the surface for a long period. Never use
chemicals such as alcohol, thinners, benzene
or detergents, as these agents may erase the
printing on the handset or cause
discoloration.
Occasionally clean terminals with a dry
cotton swab, etc.
Unclean terminals may result in poor
connections and loss of power. Keep terminal
clean with a dry cotton swab, etc.
Take care of the terminal while cleaning it.
Do not place the handset near an air
conditioning vent.
Condensation formed due to rapid changes in
temperature may cause internal corrosion
and lead to malfunction.
Do not apply excessive force to the
FOMA terminal and battery pack when
using them.
Carrying the handset in a tightly packed bag, or
sitting on the handset in your pocket may cause
a damage to display, other internal components
or battery pack, or result in malfunction.
Keeping an external connector device plugged
into the external connector terminal (earphone/
microphone terminal) may cause a damage to
the connector or result in malfunction.
Read the manuals supplied with the
FOMA terminal, adapters, and desktop
holder carefully.
Do not rub or scratch the display with
metal, etc.
May scratch the handset and cause
malfunction or damage.
Notes about the FOMA terminal
Avoid using the handset in extremely
high or low temperatures.
Use the FOMA terminal within the range of a
temperature between 5°C and 40°C (for
temperatures of 36°C or higher, such as in a
room with a bath, limit usage to a short period
of time) and a humidity between 45% and 85%.
Malfunctions deemed to be caused by using
under the conditions of extreme temperature
and humidity are not covered by the warranty
and not repaired.
Do not subject the display or the solar
panel to strong force or impacts
intentionally.
May be scratched and cause a malfunction.
Clean the solar panel part only with a
soft and dry cloth (such as the type
used for eyeglasses).
May cause malfunction if cleaning with a wet
cloth or glass cleaner.
Using the handset close to landline
phones, TVs or radios may affect the
operation of such equipment. Move as
far away as possible from such items
before use.
