Assemble Your Device

This section helps you to assemble your device.
Install the SIM Card and a Memory Card
Note: Your phone comes with the SIM card already installed. If you need to replace your SIM card, follow these steps.
When you subscribe to a cellular network, you are provided with a plug-in SIM card. During activation, your SIM card is loaded with your subscription details, such as your Personal Identification Number (PIN) , available optional services, and other features.
Warning: Please be careful when handling the SIMcard to avoid damaging it. Keep all SIM cards outof reach of small children.
You can also install an optional microSD™ or microSDHC™ memory card (not included) to add more memory space to your device.
Note: To improve performance and reliability with high-definition video recording and playback, it is recommended you use a memory card (SD card) that is both rated as at least a Class 10 and provides a high read speed. For 4K video recording, a card with write speed in excess of 45Mbps is recommended.
Caution: Exercise care when using the removal tool to eject the internal SIM card/Memory card tray.

Maintaining Water and DustResistance
This device is rated IP68 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 IP68 as described by the international standard IEC 60529 - Degrees of Protection provided by Enclosures [IP Code]; test conditions: 15-35°C, 86-106 kPa,
5.0feet, 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.
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 5.0 feet 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.
The touchscreen and other features may not work properly if the
•
device is used in water or in other liquids. [040616]
