Notes on waterproof and dustproof properties
The product has a waterproof property equivalent to JIS waterproof grade (JIS C 0920) IPX5*1 and IPX8*2, as well as a dustproof property equivalent to JIS dustproof grade IP6X*3 on the condition that the cover of microSD memory card/SIM card slot is securely attached (based on in-house testing). Before using the product, thoroughly read “Important items to remember before use” to ensure correct use. Failure to follow the contents described in the sections might cause intrusion of water, sand or other foreign material, resulting in overheating, ignition, electric shock, injury or a malfunction.
*1 IPX5 equivalent means that the product will maintain its operability as a phone even if it is sprayed with water from a 6.3 mm diameter nozzle at a distance of about 3 meters for more than 3 minutes at a rate of about 12.5 liters per minute from any direction.
*2 IPX8 equivalent means that the product will maintain its operability as a phone with no water getting inside the main unit even if it is gently submerged in a tank of still tap water at room temperature to a depth of 1.5 meter for about 30 minutes.
*3 IP6X equivalent means that the product will securely maintain its function of no grit and dust getting inside the main unit even after it has been placed in an apparatus with grit and dust of diameters of 75 m or less and shaken for 8 hours. Since operation of the product on each usage scene was confirmed based on the above assumption, proper operation of the product in every possible condition during actual use is not guaranteed. Malfunctions determined to be caused by mishandling by the customer are not covered by the warranty.
Important items to remember before use
- Make sure that the cover of microSD memory card/SIM card slot is firmly closed. Waterproofness/dustproofness is only effective when the cover is securely closed.

Also, do not use in a place where urine of pet animal is splashed. If it is splashed on the product, immediately wash the product with tap water.
- Do not put the product directly on sand at a beach etc. Sand or other small particles might get inside the earpiece, mouthpiece /microphone, speaker, or second microphone causing the volume to drop. If sand gets inside of the main unit, it might cause overheating or a malfunction.
- Do not use the product underwater.
- Do not leave the product in a humid place such as a bathroom or kitchen for an extended period of time.
- Even after draining, water might remain on the product. Although you can use the product, do not place it near things that must not get wet. Also, take care not to wet your clothes, bag, etc.
- Drain water if it becomes temporarily hard to hear the sound due to water remaining in the earpiece, mouthpiece/ microphone, speaker, or second microphone.
- Do not spray the product with high-pressure water or submerge it in water for extended periods of time, as the product is not designed to withstand high water pressure.

- Use of Bluetooth® function and Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) function may be restricted in some countries/regions. Before using the product overseas, check the relevant laws and regulations of the country/region you visit.
- The 2.4 GHz band used by wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) and Bluetooth® devices is shared by various other devices. For this reason, the communication speed and connectable range may be decreased, or disconnection may occur, due to interference from other devices.
- Do not use the product in places where electromagnetic waves are generated or near electric products, AV and OA equipment, or other magnetized devices.
- Subjecting the product to magnetic or electrical noise may increase noise and prevent it from performing communications (The product is particularly susceptible to noise when it used near a microwave oven).
- Using the product near a TV, radio or similar appliance may cause reception interference and disrupt TV images.
- The searching might not be successful if there are multiple wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) access points near to the product or the same channel is being used.
- Use of mobile phones on board is restricted. Follow the instructions of each airline.
- The communication speed and connectable range vary depending on the distance between communication devices, obstacles and the devices used.
2.4 GHz frequency band precautions
The frequencies used by the Bluetooth® and/or wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) function of the product are in the 2.4 GHz band. In this frequency band, other similar wireless stations, in-plant wireless stations for mobile unit identification that require a license to use, such as factory production lines, specific small power wireless stations that do not require licenses, amateur wireless stations (collectively called “other wireless stations” from here on) are operated in addition to home electrical appliances such as microwave ovens, devices for industrial, scientific and medical devices.
- Before using the product, make sure that “other wireless stations” are not in operation nearby.
- In the event that instances of radio wave interference have occurred between the product and “other wireless stations”, immediately either relocate the product or stop operation of the device (stop the emission of radio waves).
