• Do not leave the device charging for extended periods after it has reached 100% to prolong battery health.

2. Cleaning Your Device

• Gently wipe the screen and back panel with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a screen cleaner.

• Use a soft brush or compressed air to carefully clean dust from ports (USB-C, speaker grilles).

3. Water Resistance

The VIVO V29 5G is rated as Water Resistant. This means it can withstand splashes and light rain but is not designed for submersion in water. Avoid exposing the device to pressurized water, seawater, or chlorinated water. If the device gets wet, dry it thoroughly before charging or using ports.
