Maintaining Water and Dust
Resistance

This device is rated IP67 using the Ingress Protection
rating system.

Your device has been tested in a controlled
environment and shown to be water and dust resistant
in certain circumstances (meets requirements of
classification IP67 as described by the international
standard IEC 60529 - Degrees of Protection provided
by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15-35°C,
86-106 kPa, 1.0 meters, for 30 minutes). Despite
this classification, your device is not impervious to
water damage in any situation. It is important that all
compartments are closed tightly.

Getting Started

Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the
device.

Whenever your device gets wet, dry it thoroughly

•

with a clean, soft cloth.

Do not expose the device to salt water or ionized

•

water, or to water over 1.0 meters deep for more
than 30 minutes. If your device is exposed to fresh
water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth. If
the device is exposed to any liquid other than fresh
water, rinse the device with fresh water immediately
and dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
Failure to rinse the device in fresh water and dry it
as instructed may cause the device to suffer from
operability or cosmetic issues.

Do not expose the device to water at high pressure.

•

If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the

•

water and dust resistant features of the device may
be damaged.

6

Assemble Your Device

The touchscreen and other features may not work

•

properly if the device is used in water or in other
liquids. [040616]
