How to Clean and Disinfect
Your Rugged Kyocera Phone
Disinfecting, Cleaning & Drying Procedures
CAUTION!
Your phone may be disinfected using alcohol (70% solution) or cleaning wipes. It may also be
cleaned using a mild dish cleaner. Please see the recommended procedures below.
Precautions
● Remove all accessories, such as screen protector, phone case and cover, and strap.
For details, refer to the instructions that came with your accessory.
● Before disinfecting or cleaning, be sure the SIM/SD card slot cover is closed firmly to
maintain the waterproof capability.
● Never apply or spray alcohol directly on the phone as it can lead to damage of the
coating and could affect its waterproof capability.
● Never pour liquid cleaning agent directly onto the phone as this may affect the sound
quality. If your phone is exposed to a concentrated liquid cleaning agent, rinse it
immediately with fresh water.
● Do not expose your phone to water at high pressure, and avoid immersing the phone in
water for more than 30 minutes to maintain the waterproof capability.
● Clean by hand only. Do not use a hard brush, abrasive sponge or any abrasive
cleansers as these may damage the surface of the phone and affect phone's waterproof
capability.
● Do not use a washing machine, ultrasonic cleaner, or dishwasher. Doing so may
damage the phone and affect the waterproof capability.
● Remove all jewelry to avoid scratching the surface of the phone.
● Do not attempt to clean your phone in extreme cold or hot conditions. Water can
penetrate the phone during a rapid temperature change. If the phone has been exposed
to extreme temperatures, allow it to return to room temperature before cleaning.
● To help keep the phone clean avoid handing the phone to other people. Consider using
text messages or other online methods to share images and information.
● Since phones can collect germs, avoid putting your device on public surfaces and
consider using Speaker Mode or other methods to minimize touching the face with your
phone.
