Storage: 30 % to 90 % RH (No condensation)
Even within the above temperature/humidity ranges, operation for a long time in extreme environments, smoking nearby, or operation in places where oil is used or where there is a lot of dust will result in product deterioration and will shorten the product life.
Also, when using the product in cold environments, the product may take longer to start up and battery operation time may be reduced.
If the product is wet in temperatures of 0 °C (32 °F) or below, freeze damage may occur. Make sure to dry off the computer in such temperatures.
*1 Do not directly touch this product with your bare hands when using it in a hot or cold environment.
- Do not place the product in the following areas, as doing so may damage the product.
- Near electric appliances. The image may be distorted or noise may occur.
- This product is designed to reduce physical shock applied to the LCD and internal electrical components. However, protection against malfunction due to such shock is not guaranteed. As with any portable device, precautions should be taken to avoid any damage.
- When operating the screen using the dedicated stylus, do not firmly press it down. Doing so may damage the dedicated stylus or result in scratches or dents on the screen.
- Do not place objects on the surface of the product or press down hard on the product with sharp objects. The screen surface may get scratched.
- Do not scratch the rear camera, barcode reader, or flash panel.
- Do not use the dedicated stylus (sold separately) when dust or dirt (e.g., oil) is on the screen. Otherwise foreign particles on the screen/dedicated stylus may scratch the screen surface or obstruct operation of the dedicated stylus.
- Use the dedicated stylus only for touching the screen. Using it for any other purpose may damage the dedicated stylus and result in scratches on the screen.
- Confirm the safety and security of software before downloading or installing it on the product. Installing malware or viruses can cause malfunction and the disclosure of any private information stored in the product, or may cause excessive sound volume.
- Turn off the product before removing the SIM card or SD card. Failure to do so can result in data loss or damage to the SIM card, SD card, or product.
- Do not place the product near a television or radio receiver. This may cause television or radio interference.
- Keep the product away from magnets. Failure to do so may cause malfunction.
- It is illegal in many areas to record a call without permission. Always ask the other party for permission before recording a call.
- Follow these instructions and the Reference Manual to avoid any damage to the devices. Carefully read the instruction manuals of the peripheral devices.
- Use peripheral devices that conform to the product's specifications.
- Connect to the connectors in the correct direction.
- If a connector is hard to insert, do not try forcibly. Check its shape, direction, alignment of pins, etc.
Protecting your data
- To prevent accidental loss of data, we recommend that you back up any important data that you store in the product, SIM card, and SD card.
• To prevent the unintended disclosure of private information, always confirm the destination before sending messages, file attachments, or any other communications, such as email.
- To prevent the unintended disclosure of sensitive information stored in the SD card, we recommend using the unit's SD card encryption feature to encrypt the SD card (see the Reference Manual for more information).
- Before disposing of the product or handing the product over to a third party, remove the SIM card, SD card, and any other accessories.
- Before disposing of the product or handing the product over to a third party, perform a factory data reset (page 28) to erase any data stored in the product.
- Before using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth features, take appropriate action to secure your data.
Waterproof/dustproof
- The product is waterproof/dustproof when the interface cover and headset jack cover are closed, and the battery and battery cover are attached. Therefore, keep water and dust away from the product's internal components, accessories, and optional products.
- To prevent liquids, sand, dust, or any foreign objects from entering the product, always keep the battery cover and battery clean and make sure to firmly close the cover after opening. Take care not to get anything caught between the cover or battery and the product.
- If the product is exposed to water droplets, wipe them off with a dry, soft cloth and shake the product to remove the water droplets. Next, remove the battery cover, and shake the product while holding down the battery so that it does not detach to remove the water. Then, with the battery still attached, wipe off the water droplets on the battery and back side of the battery cover, and dry thoroughly.
- Do not leave any water droplets on the product. Water droplets may cause the micro USB port or headset jack to short circuit, or create smears on the screen.
- If the unit is wet, wipe off the moisture before connecting with peripheral devices.
- Do not dry the product with an appliance or heat source such as a microwave oven or dryer.
- Accessories
Do not use in the rain or in very humid places such as bathrooms because the accessories are not waterproof/dustproof. Stop use if they are worn on the body, because the inside may corrode due to humidity from sweat and cause malfunction.
Maintenance
- When cleaning the product, make sure to turn it off.
- When cleaning the product, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. An alcohol-based disinfectant may be used if necessary.
- If the product is particularly dirty, thoroughly wring a cloth soaked in water, wipe off the dirt, and then wipe with a dry cloth.
- Do not clean the product with solvents such as benzene, thinner, or strong alkaline detergent because they may affect the surface of the product.
Battery
- The battery is a consumable item, and battery life varies with usage conditions. Typical battery life is approximately one year or about 500 charge cycles. As the battery reaches the end of its life, the amount of time it can be used becomes dramatically shorter and repeated charging does not restore its performance. When this occurs, the battery should be replaced with a new one.
- Do not touch the terminals of the battery. Failure to observe this may cause poor contact.
- When the battery is left installed in the product, it discharges electricity gradually in small amounts even if the product's power is off. If left for a long period (several months or more), the battery will over discharge and its performance may deteriorate.
- Store the battery in environments with an ambient temperature of -20 °C to 35 °C (-4 °F to 95 °F). If the battery is stored in other environments, battery performance and battery life may be reduced.
- When storing or transporting the battery, make sure that the battery's terminals do not become dirty and that no foreign objects or debris become attached to the battery's terminals.
- If battery charging is not completed after the specified charging time has passed, remove the battery from the unit. The battery protection device may be damaged.
- You cannot charge an installed battery if it is not recognized by the product. Make sure that you use the specified battery.
