If the phone is exposed to fresh water, make sure to dry it thoroughly. To avoid damaging the phone,
do not charge when contaminants are present or the USB port is not completely dry. In these
circumstances, do not connect any external device.
Never use a hair dryer to dry wet parts of the phone.
The power adapter and accessories are not water resistant. Never use them in wet areas such as in
the bathroom or kitchen since contact with water may cause malfunction, electric shock, or other
hazards.
Avoid leaving the phone in humid places such as the bathroom or kitchen for too long since it is not
moisture-proof.

immediately rinse the phone. When the phone is wet, make sure to dry it thoroughly.
§ To avoid damaging HTC EXODUS 1, do not charge the phone when contaminants are present or
the USB port is not completely dry. In these circumstances, do not connect any external device.

Rinsing
1. Before rinsing, make sure the nano SIM/microSD slot is covered and closed tightly.
2. Rinse the phone using fresh water. Rinse by hand only. Don't use a brush or sponge.
While rinsing, do not press on the tray to avoid having gaps around the card slot which may
allow water to enter the phone.
Drying
1. Gently wipe off the water from the phone with a clean, dry cloth. Don't use cotton swabs to
wipe the earpiece, speakers, microphone, and connection port.
2. The display may not respond accurately to touch gestures when it's wet. For the touch screen
and lenses, wipe with a soft dry cloth such as a microfiber cloth that will not scratch the
surface.
3. Leave the phone at room temperature for 3 hours or so to let it dry completely. If buttons and
any connection port such as the USB port are still wet, make sure to let them dry completely
before you use the phone.
If condensation forms inside the display such as when there's a drastic change in temperature, place
the phone at room temperature until condensation disappears.
