Speaker Care for your phone To clean the screen: • While this does not disinfect your phone, the best way to keep your phone clean is to wipe it thoroughly with a dry soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cloths, including paper towels and other materials with rough surfaces. • If the screen gets drops of liquid on it, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth. To disinfect your phone: • It is okay to use wipes or cloths moistened with 70% isopropyl alcohol to gently wipe your screen. • When disinfecting or cleaning your phone, turn it off and avoid getting any moisture in its openings, including the charging port, headphone jack, microphones and speakers. • Don't submerge your phone in any cleaning agents, avoid using any cleaners with bleach or abrasives, and avoid spraying cleaners directly on the screen. Set up phone 3 Prevent water damage Mobile phones marketed as water repellent are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, and do not submerge in water.
