Maintaining Water and DustResistance
Notice: Water-resistant and dustproof based on IP68 rating, which tests submersion
up to 5.0 feet for up to 30 minutes.
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 30minutes). 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.

the straps first. If you experience skin irritation when wearing the device, stop wearing
the device and consult a physician.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the mobile
device. Wipe it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution. If
the mobile device has a retractable camera lens, do not use soap and water to clean the
lens. Use a blower or brush or lens cleaning paper dampened in a lens cleaning solution.
