The droplets will disappear at room temperature. The Sonim XP10 is dust-resistant, rugged and shock-resistant. However, it is not dust-proof or unbreakable if subjected to overwhelming impact. For best results and long product life, one should protect the Sonim XP10 from salt
water, dust and strong impacts.

AVOID HIGH TEMPERATURES
Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces the capacity and lifetime of the battery. For the best results, try to use the device between -20°C and +55°C (-4°F and 131°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
PERSONAL MEDICAL DEVICES
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, for example in your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you suspect that interference is taking place, immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist for more information. For other medical devices, consult your physician and the manufacturer of the device. Comply with instructions to switch off the device or deactivate the RF transmitter
when required, especially when posted in hospitals and airplanes. Equipment used in these places may be sensitive to radio waves emitted from the device and adversely affect their operation. Also, observe restrictions at gas stations or other areas with flammable atmosphere or when close to electro- explosive devices.
CHILD SAFETY
Do not allow children to play with your mobile phone or its accessories. Keep it out of their reach. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the mobile phone or accessories. Your mobile phone and its accessories may contain small parts, which could be detached and create a choking hazard.
EMERGENCY CALLS
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all cellular networks, or when certain network services and/ or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider.
EU/UK SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
Your phone is tested to comply with applicable requirements and regulations of the European Union/UK of human exposure to radio wave. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure radio waves absorbed by a body. The device complies with RF specifications when the device is used at a distance of 5 mm from your body. The SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10gram of Tissue in the European Union/UK.  This product was tested and recorded the maximumSAR value as 0.98 W/kg for the head, 1.15 W/kg for the body, 2.38 W/kg for the limbs.

The ambient temperature during charging shall be in the range 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)
Only the power supplies with outputs meeting the SELV requirements can be used for charging. The maximum allowable input voltage for the phone is 5V. There is a risk of explosion while charging if the battery has been replaced by an incorrect type. If the battery is completely out of charge, it can take several minutes for the charging icon to appear when the charger is connected.
PROPERLY CHARGING THE DEVICE

  1. INSERT CHARGER Insert the charger plug into a power outlet.
  2.  CONNECT TO THE PHONE The charging port is located on the bottom center of the phone. Open the port cover and insert the charging connector to the charging port.
  3. CHARGING ANIMATION/ICON
    • If the battery is being charged when the phone is switched off, a battery charging animation with current battery level is displayed.
    • If the battery is being charged while the phone is switched on, the battery icon on the status bar shows the animation indicating that the battery is being charged.
    • After the battery is fully charged the charging animation stops and you can disconnect the charger from the phone. A message is displayed as Battery is full. Please unplug the charger.

STORING YOUR PHONE OR BATTERY
If you plan to store your phone or your battery for an extended time, please follow the recommendations below to ensure long battery life and minimize battery self-discharge:

  • Charge your battery to a level between 40% to 80%
  •  Store phone and battery separately to minimize battery trickle drain
  • Insulate the battery terminals to avoid discoloration and potential shirt circuits with other battery terminals
  •  Store the battery in dry and cool conditions in a vibration-free environment
  •  If you use a climate-controlled storage location, set  the temperature to 50° to 64° F (10° – 18°Celsius) and keep the relative humidity between 40% – 50%
  • Recharge the battery once every 6 months, using the original Sonim wall charger and charging cable
