Tips on Mobile Maintenance
Looking after your mobile helps to ensure it has a long and productive life. There
are 8 easy maintenance tips to help you get the best out of your mobile phone. All of
the points below should also apply to your battery, charger and any other accessories.
KEEP YOUR MOBILE:
1. Charged: Ensure your battery is fully charged, and then completely run it down
before recharging. Recharging too early causes your battery to run out of power more
quickly.
2. Secure: For security reasons, enable the PIN on your SIM Card and Phone-lock on
your phone to avoid unauthorized used. These security checks will also be activated
when the phone is power cycled. You can check with your carrier or the phone manual
for the features and also for information on blocking your SIM card and phone IMEI
number if the phone is stolen. For more information please see the Security Tips
located on the AMTA Lost and Stolen website.
3. Protected: Make sure you use a keypad lock to lock your phone. Unplanned calls
can cost a fortune and even though your phone may be in a safe place, such as in a
bag, your phone will still get knocked around to a surprising degree. Rough treatment
can damage electronic circuit boards so avoid dropping or unnecessarily shaking your
phone.
4. Battery: Be safe with your batteries. Use only genuine batteries from your phone
manufacturer and only buy from authorized dealers. Going for the cheap option of a
counterfeit battery can be dangerous.
5. Clean: Don't use harsh detergents, cleaning solvents or harsh chemicals to
clean your phone. Wipe only with a soft cloth.
6. Covered: a protective cover will help repel dust and dirt, and prevent
scratches. Make sure the cover you choose is of good quality. Low quality covers with
no air pockets can damage you phone by creating humidity inside the cover.
7. Storing your phone: Always store your phone in a dry place. Avoid rain, high
humidity and liquids. All of these may contain minerals that could corrode the
electronic circuits.
8. At the right temperature: To ensure a long life, keep your phone in a stable
temperature. Avoid exposing your phone to liquid and/or exposing your phone to extreme
temperature change from hot to cold and vice versa. This might create condensation and
damage the phone.
