• Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the screen and body. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Water Resistance: While the phone is waterproof (IP68/IP69K), ensure all ports and covers are securely closed before exposing it to water. Rinse with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or other liquids.

• Software Updates: Regularly check for and install software updates to ensure your device has the latest security patches and performance improvements.
