This chapter provides information to help you take proper
care of your pdQ™ smartphone and prolong battery life. It
also discusses how to reset pdQ smartphone.
Caring for the pdQ Smartphone
pdQ smartphone is designed to be rugged and reliable and
to provide years of trouble-free service. However, you
should observe the following general tips when using pdQ
smartphone:
■ Take care not to scratch the screen of pdQ smartphone.
When working with pdQ smartphone, use the supplied
stylus or plastic-tipped pens intended for use with a touch-
sensitive screen. Never use an actual pen or pencil or other sharp object
on the surface of the pdQ smartphone screen.
■ pdQ smartphone is not waterproof and should not be exposed to rain or
moisture. Under extreme conditions, water may enter the circuitry
through the front panel buttons. In general, treat pdQ smartphone as
you would a pocket calculator or other small electronic instrument.
■ The touch-sensitive screen of pdQ smartphone contains a glass
element. Take care not to drop pdQ smartphone or subject it to any
strong impact. Do not carry pdQ smartphone in your back pocket: if you
sit on it, the glass may break.
■ Protect pdQ smartphone from temperature extremes. Do not leave pdQ
smartphone on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and keep it away
from heaters and other heat sources.
■ Do not store or use pdQ smartphone in any location that is extremely
dusty, damp or wet.
■ Use a soft, damp cloth to clean pdQ smartphone. If the surface of the
pdQ smartphone screen becomes soiled, clean it with a soft cloth
moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.
■ Do not let unauthorized personnel install or service pdQ smartphone or
its accessories. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous, and will
invalidate your warranty.
