Handset Water Resistance/Dustproofing
Handset water resistance/dustproofing provides the
following:
Calling in the rain without umbrella (approximately 20 mm
rainfall per hour)
・Do not open or close SIM Card/SD Card Slot Cover with wet
hands or when handset gets wet.
Washing handset when it gets dirty or stained with liquid
other than tap water
・Wash with tap water at normal temperature (5°C - 35°C)
with weak water flow (less than 6 L/minute) at distance of
approximately 10 cm away from the tap or shower.
・When washing handset, make sure to securely close SIM
Card/SD Card Slot Cover. Do not use a brush or sponge.
Drain and the use handset after washing.
Using handset at a poolside
・Do not get water from a pool on handset or soak it in pool
water.
Maintaining Water Resistance/
Dustproof Performance
Observe the following to avoid water or dust ingress.
・Do not get any liquid other than room temperature tap
water on handset, or soak it in such liquid.
・Firmly close SIM Card/SD Card Slot Cover. Even a fine
particle (one hair, one grain of sand, tiny fiber, etc.) put
between the port contact surfaces may allow water or dust
to ingress.
・Do not push Earpiece/Speaker, Mic, Speaker, Second Mic,
Headphone Port, or USB Type-C Port with a sharp-pointed
object.
・Do not let handset fall. Scratch on handset may degrade
water resistance/dustproof performance.
・Rubber gaskets on inner side of SIM Card/SD Card Slot Cover
play important roles for water resistance/dustproofing.
Do not remove or damage them. Also, prevent dust from
adhering onto them.

Observe the following precautions to use handset properly.
・Packaged accessories are not water resistant/dustproof.
・Do not apply water flow stronger than allowed directly from
a tap or shower. Handset provides IPX5 water resistance,
but doing so may cause malfunction.
・If handset gets wet with salt water, sea water, beverage,
or mud or sand adheres, wash it immediately. If they dry,
they become hard to remove and may cause damage or
malfunction.
・Do not put in hot water, use in a sauna or apply hot airflow
(from a hair dryer etc.).

surface of water.
・Soaking handset in tap water should be no more than 30
minutes.

Cover are damaged or deformed, have them replaced at a
SoftBank Shop or Customer Service.
