Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be
handled with care: The following suggestions will help you protect your phone:

moisture can contain minerals that will rust electronic circuits. If your device
does get wet, remove the battery without turning on the device, wipe it
with a dry cloth and take it the service center.

shorten the life of electronic devices and damage batteries.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
Repairing this phone by yourself other than our authorized service
agents/centers goes against the warranty rules.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean
the device. Only use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface of the
device.
Do not store your device near magnetic fields or allow your device to come
in contact with magnetic fields for extended period of time.
