Care and Maintenance

Care and MaintenanceCare and Maintenance

Your P31 is a delicate electronic device and shall be used and handled carefully in compliance with the instructions below. Failure to observe these instructions may cause your product warranty to void.

• Do not use your P31 in dusty and humid areas. It is extremely vulnerable to liquid, and sand grains can cause scratches on the surface of your P31.

• Do not store your P31 in extremely hot or cold areas. Heat can cause damage to both the outer case and inside components. In an extremely cold area, moisture can build from inside of P31 after you turn it on and result in damages.

• Do not drop, shake or knock on your phone.

• Do not use strong detergents, thinners or other corrosive liquid to clean your P31. Instead, use the supplied cloth to clean it. If necessary, use mild detergents.

• Keep your P31, batteries and accessories away from reach of small children.

• Use only supplied or BenQ original or approved accessories with your P31.

• Follow your local regulations concerning the safety of mobile phone usage.

• The battery should be used and charged under normal room temperature. If the battery is charged in environments where

the temperature is higher than 45 (113 ) or lower than

0 (32 ), charging will be stopped automatically and will not continue unless the temperature returns to the normal

range.

• Do not store the battery in locations where the temperature is below -10 (14 ) or above 45 (113 ).
