Limits and cautions

• Touchscreens do not work underwater or with wet fingers. Follow the closure instructions and test with paper before use; keep sharp objects separate.
• Neither flotation nor unlimited immersion is established. Practise reaching and unlocking the phone in the intended clothing before relying on it.
• The dated offer uses the upper carrier-dependent delivered budget, not an Eircode quote. The checkout may offer a different carrier and price.
