WARNING!
• To avoid network connection and battery issues:
• DO NOT place a metallic sticker on the antenna area.
• DO NOT use a metallic protective frame/case on your ROG Phone.
• DO NOT cover the antenna area with your hands or other objects while using some functions such
as making calls or using the mobile data connection.
• We recommend that you use ASUS-compatible screen protectors. Using non-ASUS-compatible
screen protectors may cause your ROG Phone's sensor to malfunction.
IMPORTANT!
• We do not recommend using a screen protector as it can interfere with the proximity sensor. If you
want to use a screen protector, ensure that it does not block the proximity sensor.
• Keep the device, particularly the touch screen, dry all the time. Water or other liquids can cause the
touch screen to malfunction.
