29 Unboxing and setup

Charging the battery

Before you turn on and start using HTC U11+, it is recommended that you charge the battery.
§ If the battery has been discharged for several days, you may need to charge HTC U11+ for several minutes before powering it on.
§ Use only the adapter and the USB Type-C cable that came with HTC U11+ to charge the battery. When the battery power is too low, make sure to use the power adapter to charge, not the USB cable connection with your computer.
1. Insert the small end of the USB Type-C cable into the USB Type-C connector.
2. Insert the other end of the USB Type-C cable into the power adapter.
3. Plug in the power adapter to an electrical outlet to start charging the battery.
§ As a safety precaution, the battery may stop charging to avoid overheating.
§ Avoid charging the battery in hot environments.
§ When you're using the web browser and charging the battery, HTC U11+ may become warmer.
This is normal.
§ To conserve energy, unplug the power adapter from the electrical outlet after you finish charging.

Water and dust resistant

HTC U11+ is water and dust resistant and has an IP68 rating as defined in the International Standard IEC 60529. With the nano SIM/microSD slot covered and closed tightly, this phone is water resistant if it is briefly submerged by accident in fresh water less than 1.5 meter deep and no longer than 30 minutes at room temperature.
HTC U11+ must not be exposed to non-fresh water, high water pressure, strong or fast-moving water, or sand since these may cause overheating, electric shock, or damage to the phone. Do not attempt to charge or otherwise use the USB port when HTC U11+ is wet. Normal wear and tear may decrease the water and dust resistance over time.
Warranty will be void if the phone is not used in accordance with the instructions and precautions addressed in this user guide, including, but not limited to, using the phone in environments or
30 Unboxing and setup
situations that exceed the limitations of the IP68 rating. For usage precautions and tips on care and maintenance, see Care and maintenance tips on page 30 and Cleaning and drying on page 31. Also make sure to read the Safety guide that comes with the phone.

Care and maintenance tips

Follow these tips and precautions to help maintain water and dust resistance for your phone.
Never attempt to insert or remove the nano SIM and microSD cards with gloves, wet hands, or when the phone is wet.
§ Before inserting the tray and closing the card slot, wipe off every drop of water or dirt with a clean, dry cloth. Also make sure that no hairs, fibers, or small particles are caught between the tray and the slot opening to prevent water from entering the phone.
§ Parts that maintain water resistance such as the tray—which acts as the card slot cover—may degrade over time. If these parts degrade or get damaged, the phone will no longer be water resistant. If this happens, contact your retail store or mobile operator. You may be charged for parts replacement.
Do not intentionally submerge HTC U11+. If the phone accidentally gets immersed in water, avoid pressing the controls—such as the POWER and VOLUME buttons—and do not operate the phone.
Do not expose the phone to fast or strong-moving water such as shower spray, running taps or faucets, waterfalls, or ocean waves.
Do not expose the phone to or let the USB port come in contact with the following:
§ Water containing soap, detergent, or shower gel
§ Sea water, swimming pools, spas, hot water, and hot springs
§ Any liquid besides tap water such as alcohol, juices, and condiments
§ Sand
If the phone is exposed to fresh water, make sure to dry it thoroughly. To avoid damaging the phone, do not charge when contaminants are present or the USB port is not completely dry. In these circumstances, do not connect any external device.
Never use a hair dryer to dry wet parts of the phone.
The power adapter and accessories are not water resistant. Never use them in wet areas such as in the bathroom or kitchen since contact with water may cause malfunction, electric shock, or other hazards.
Avoid leaving the phone in humid places such as the bathroom or kitchen for too long since it is not moisture-proof.
