Stands up to life
Your Motorola DEFY stands up to water, dust and life,
because accidents happen. Now your investment is
safe and protected from life’s little challenges like that
sudden rain shower and other everyday mishaps.
Of course, your phone isn’t indestructible, so to avoid
damage from natural elements, such as water, sand
and dust intrusion, always make sure that the battery
door cover and connector covers are closed and
secure.
If your phone gets wet and/or dirty:
•Wipe with a soft cloth and shake to remove excess
water from the entire phone, especially the display
screen, speaker and microphone ports.
•Allow your phone to air-dry for at least 1 hour before
using it again.
•Always make sure you clean all dirt and debris from
the battery door cover/seals and connector covers.
Note: Your phone is not designed to float or work
underwater.
