When an app needs to use the Internet, iPhone does the following, in order:
•Connects over the most recently used available Wi-Fi network
•Shows a list of Wi-Fi networks in range, and connects using the one you choose
•Connects over the cellular data network, if available
Note: If a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet isn’t available, apps and services may transfer data
over your carrier’s cellular network, which may result in additional fees. Contact your carrier
for information about your cellular data plan rates. To manage cellular data usage, see Cellular
settings on page 157.
Set up mail and other accounts
iPhone works with iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular Internet-based
mail, contacts, and calendar service providers.
You can set up a free iCloud account when you rst set up iPhone, or later in Settings. See
iCloud on page 17.
Set up an account. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account. If you’re setting up
an iCloud account, you can also do that in Settings > iCloud.
You can add contacts using an LDAP or CardDAV account, if your company or organization
supports it. See Add contacts on page 115 .
You can add calendars using a CalDAV calendar account, and you can subscribe to iCalendar (.ics)
calendars or import them from Mail. See Use multiple calendars on page 71.
Apple ID
An Apple ID is the login you use for just about everything you do with Apple, including using
iCloud to store your content, downloading apps from the App Store, and buying songs, movies,
and TV shows from the iTunes Store.
You need only one Apple ID for everything you do with Apple. If you have an Apple ID, use it
when you rst set up iPhone, and whenever you need to sign in to use an Apple service. If you
don’t already have an Apple ID, you can create one when you’re asked to sign in.
Create an Apple ID. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and tap Sign In. (If you’re already
signed in and want to create another Apple ID, rst tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.)

Chapter 2 Getting Started 17
Manage content on your iOS devices
You can transfer information and les between your iOS devices and computers, using iCloud
or iTunes.
•iCloud stores content such as music, photos, calendars, contacts, documents, and more, and
wirelessly pushes it to your other iOS devices and computers, keeping everything up to date.
See iCloud below.
•iTunes syncs music, video, photos, and more, between your computer and iPhone. Changes
you make on one device are copied to the other when you sync. You can also use iTunes to
sync les and documents. See Sync with iTunes on page 18.
You can use iCloud or iTunes, or both, depending on your needs. For example, you can use iCloud
to automatically send the photos you take on iPhone to your other devices, and use iTunes to
sync photo albums from your computer to iPhone.
Important: To avoid duplicates, keep contacts, calendars, and notes in sync using iCloud or
iTunes, but not both.
You can also manually manage content from iTunes, in the device’s Summary pane. This lets you
add songs and videos, by choosing a song, video, or playlist from your iTunes library and then
dragging it to your iPhone in iTunes. This is useful if your iTunes library contains more items than
can t on your device.
iCloud
iCloud stores your content, including music, photos, contacts, calendars, and supported
documents. Content stored in iCloud is pushed wirelessly to your other iOS devices and
computers set up with the same iCloud account.
iCloud is available on devices with iOS 5 or later, on Mac computers with OS X Lion v10.7.2
or later, and on PCs with the iCloud Control Panel for Windows (Windows 7 or Windows 8
is required).
Note: iCloud may not be available in all areas, and iCloud features may vary by area. For more
information, see www.apple.com/icloud.
iCloud features include:
•iTunes in the Cloud—Download previous iTunes Store music and video purchases to iPhone
for free, anytime. With an iTunes Match subscription, all your music—including music you’ve
imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes Store—appears on all of your
devices and can be downloaded and played, on demand. See iTunes Match on page 65.
•Apps and Books—Download previous App Store and iBooks Store purchases to iPhone for
free, anytime.
•Photos—Use My Photo Stream to push photos you take with your iPhone to your other
devices, automatically. Use iCloud Photo Sharing to share photos and videos with just the
people you choose, and let them add photos, videos, and comments. See iCloud Photo
Sharing on page 74 and My Photo Stream on page 75.
•Documents in the Cloud—For iCloud-enabled apps, keep documents and app data up to date
across all your devices.
•Mail, Contacts, Calendars—Keep your mail contacts, calendars, notes, and reminders up to date
across all your devices.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Chapter 2 Getting Started 18
•Backup—Back up iPhone to iCloud automatically when connected to power and Wi-Fi.
All iCloud data and backups sent over the Internet are encrypted. See Back up iPhone on
page 156.
•Find My iPhone—Locate your iPhone on a map, display a message, play a sound, lock the
screen, or remotely wipe the data. Find My iPhone includes Activation Lock, which requires
your Apple ID and password in order to turn o Find My iPhone or erase your device. Your
Apple ID and password are also required before anyone can reactivate your iPhone. See Find
My iPhone on page 39.
•iCloud Tabs—See the webpages you have open on your other iOS devices and OS X
computers. See Share what you discover on page 57.
•iCloud Keychain—Keep your passwords and credit card information up to date across all your
designated devices. See iCloud Keychain on page 38.
•Find My Friends—Share your location with people who are important to you. Download the

backups. Your purchased music, apps, TV shows, and books, as well as your photo streams, don’t
count against your available space.
Sign in or create an iCloud account, and set iCloud options. Go to Settings > iCloud.

Security
Security features help protect the information on your iPhone from being accessed by others.
Use a passcode with data protection
For better security, you can set a passcode that must be entered each time you turn on or wake
up iPhone.
Set a passcode. Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode (iPhone 5s) or Settings > Passcode (other
models), and set a 4-digit passcode.
Setting a passcode turns on data protection, using your passcode as a key to encrypt Mail
messages and attachments stored on iPhone, using 256-bit AES encryption. (Other apps may
also use data protection.)
Increase security. Turn o Simple Passcode and use a longer passcode. To enter a passcode that’s
a combination of numbers and letters, you use the keyboard. If you prefer to unlock iPhone using
the numeric keypad, create a passcode using numbers only.
Add ngerprints and set options for the Touch ID sensor. (iPhone 5s) Go to Settings > Touch ID
& Passcode. See Touch ID sensor, below.
Allow access to features when iPhone is locked. Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode
(iPhone 5s) or Settings > Passcode (other models). Optional features include:
•Voice Dial
•Siri (if enabled, see Siri settings on page 43)
•Passbook (see Chapter 24, Passbook, on page 106)
•Reply with Message (see When someone calls on page 45)
Allow access to Control Center when iPhone is locked. Go to Settings > Control Center. See
Control Center on page 30.
Erase data after ten failed passcode attempts. Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode (iPhone 5s)
or Settings > Passcode (other models), then tap Erase Data. After ten failed passcode attempts, all
settings are reset, and all your information and media are erased by removing the encryption key
to the data.
If you forget your passcode, you must restore the iPhone software. See Restore iPhone on
page 157.

a ngerprint to unlock iPhone, and to make iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store purchases.
Tap Add a Fingerprint and follow the onscreen instructions. You can add more than one
ngerprint (your thumb and forenger, for example, or one for your spouse).
Delete a ngerprint. Tap the ngerprint, then tap Delete Fingerprint. If you have more than one
ngerprint, touch the Home button to nd out which ngerprint it is.

turn on iTunes & App Store.
Note: If you turn iPhone o, you’ll be asked to conrm your passcode when you turn iPhone
back on and unlock it the rst time, and you’ll be asked for your Apple ID password for the rst
purchase you make.
iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your website user names and passwords, and credit card information that
you set up with Safari, up to date on iPhone and your other designated iOS devices and Macs
running OS X Mavericks.
iCloud Keychain works with Safari Password Generator and AutoFill. When you’re setting up a
new account, Safari Password Generator suggests unique, hard-to-guess passwords. You can use
AutoFill to have iPhone enter your user name and password info, making login easy. See Fill in
forms on page 57.
Note: Some websites do not support AutoFill.
iCloud Keychain works on all your approved iOS 7 devices and Macs running OS X Mavericks.
iCloud Keychain is secured with 256-bit AES encryption during storage and transmission, and
cannot be read by Apple.
Set up iCloud Keychain. Go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain. Turn on iCloud Keychain and
follow the onscreen instructions. If you’ve set up iCloud Keychain on other devices, you need to
approve use of iCloud Keychain from one of those devices, or use your iCloud Security Code.
Important: If you forget your iCloud Security Code, you’ll have to start over and set up your
iCloud Keychain again.
Set up AutoFill. Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & AutoFill. Make sure Names and Passwords,
and Credit Cards, are turned on (they’re on by default). To add credit card info, tap Saved
Credit Cards.
The security code for your credit card is not saved—you have to enter that manually.
To automatically ll in names, passwords, or credit card info on sites that support it, tap a text
eld, then tap AutoFill.
To protect your personal information, set a passcode if you turn on iCloud Keychain and AutoFill.

VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use iPhone without seeing it.
VoiceOver tells you about each item on the screen as you select it. The VoiceOver cursor
(a rectangle) encloses the item and VoiceOver speaks its name or describes it.
Touch the screen or drag your nger over it to hear the items on the screen. When you select
text, VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the
item and provide instructions—for example, “double-tap to open.” To interact with items, such as
buttons and links, use the gestures described in Learn VoiceOver gestures on page 130.
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound, then selects and speaks the rst item
on the screen (typically in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when the display
changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen becomes locked or unlocked.
Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specied in International settings, which may be
inuenced by the Region Format setting in Settings > General > International. VoiceOver is
available in many languages, but not all.
VoiceOver basics
Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures you use to control iPhone. When VoiceOver is on,
you must use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPhone—even to turn VoiceOver o.
Turn VoiceOver on or o. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, or use the
Accessibility Shortcut. See Accessibility Shortcut on page 127.

Learn VoiceOver gestures
When VoiceOver is on, standard touchscreen gestures have dierent eects, and additional
gestures let you move around the screen and control individual items. VoiceOver gestures
include two-, three-, and four-nger taps and swipes. For best results using multi-nger gestures,
relax and let your ngers touch the screen with some space between them.
You can use dierent techniques to perform VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can perform
a two-nger tap using two ngers of one hand, or one nger from each hand. You can even use
your thumbs. Many use a split-tap gesture: instead of selecting an item and double-tapping,
touch and hold an item with one nger, then tap the screen with another nger.
Try dierent techniques to discover what works best for you. If a gesture doesn’t work, try a
quicker movement, especially for a double-tap or swipe gesture. To swipe, try brushing the
screen quickly with your nger or ngers.
In VoiceOver settings, you can enter a special area where you can practice VoiceOver gestures
without aecting iPhone or its settings.
Practice VoiceOver gestures. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap
VoiceOver Practice. When you nish practicing, tap Done. If you don’t see the VoiceOver Practice
button, make sure VoiceOver is turned on.
Here’s a summary of key VoiceOver gestures:
Navigate and read
•Tap: Select and speak the item.
•Swipe right or left: Select the next or previous item.
•Swipe up or down: Depends on the rotor setting. See Use the VoiceOver rotor on page 131.
•Two-nger tap: Stop speaking the current item.
•Two-nger swipe up: Read all from the top of the screen.
•Two-nger swipe down: Read all from the current position.
•Two-nger scrub: Move two ngers back and forth three times quickly (making a “z”) to
dismiss an alert or go back to the previous screen.
•Three-nger swipe up or down: Scroll one page at a time.
•Three-nger swipe right or left: Go to the next or previous page (on the Home screen or in
Stocks, for example).
•Three-nger tap: Speak additional information, such as position within a list or whether text
is selected.
•Four-nger tap at top of screen: Select the rst item on the page.
•Four-nger tap at bottom of screen: Select the last item on the page.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix A Accessibility 131
Activate
•Double-tap: Activate the selected item.
•Triple-tap: Double-tap an item.
•Split-tap: As an alternative to selecting an item and double-tapping to activate it, touch an
item with one nger, and then tap the screen with another.
•Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture. The double-tap
and hold gesture tells iPhone to interpret the next gesture as standard. For example, you can
double-tap and hold, and then without lifting your nger, drag your nger to slide a switch.
•Two-nger double-tap: Answer or end a call. Play or pause in Music, Videos, Voice Memos, or
Photos. Take a photo in Camera. Start or pause recording in Camera or Voice Memos. Start or
stop the stopwatch.
•Two-nger double-tap and hold: Change an item’s label to make it easier to nd.
•Two-nger triple-tap: Open the Item Chooser.
•Three-nger triple-tap: Mute or unmute VoiceOver.

Use the VoiceOver rotor
Use the rotor to choose what happens when you swipe up or down with VoiceOver turned on.
Operate the rotor. Rotate two ngers on the screen around a point between them.
Choose your rotor options. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Rotor and
select the options you want to be available in the rotor.
The available rotor positions and their eects depend on what you’re doing. For example, if
you’re reading an email, you can use the rotor to switch between hearing text spoken word-by-
word or character-by-character when you swipe up or down. If you’re browsing a webpage, you
can set the rotor to speak all text (word-by-word or character-by-character), or to jump to the
next item of a certain type, such as a header or link.
When you use an Apple Wireless Keyboard to control VoiceOver, the rotor lets you adjust settings
such as volume, speech rate, use of pitch or phonetics, typing echo, and reading of punctuation.
See Use VoiceOver with an Apple Wireless Keyboard on page 135.
Use the onscreen keyboard
When you activate an editable text eld, the onscreen keyboard appears (unless you have an
Apple Wireless Keyboard attached).
Activate a text eld. Select the text eld, then double-tap. The insertion point and the onscreen
keyboard appear.
Enter text. Type characters using the onscreen keyboard:
•Standard typing: Select a key on the keyboard by swiping left or right, then double-tap to
enter the character. Or move your nger around the keyboard to select a key and, while
continuing to touch the key with one nger, tap the screen with another nger. VoiceOver
speaks the key when it’s selected, and again when the character is entered.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix A Accessibility 132
•Touch typing: Touch a key on the keyboard to select it, then lift your nger to enter the
character. If you touch the wrong key, slide your nger to the key you want. VoiceOver
speaks the character for each key as you touch it, but doesn’t enter a character until you lift
your nger.
•Choose standard or touch typing: With VoiceOver turned on and a key selected on the
keyboard, use the rotor to select Typing Mode, then swipe up or down.
Move the insertion point. Swipe up or down to move the insertion point forward or backward in
the text. Use the rotor to choose whether you want to move the insertion point by character, by
word, or by line.
VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and speaks the character, word, or
line that the insertion point moves across. When moving forward by words, the insertion point
is placed at the end of each word, before the space or punctuation that follows. When moving
backward, the insertion point is placed at the end of the preceding word, before the space or
punctuation that follows it.
Move the insertion point past the punctuation at the end of a word or sentence. Use the rotor
to switch back to character mode.
When moving the insertion point by line, VoiceOver speaks each line as you move across it.
When moving forward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the next line (except
when you reach the last line of a paragraph, when the insertion point is moved to the end of the
line just spoken). When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the
line that’s spoken.
Change typing feedback. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Typing Feedback.
Use phonetics in typing feedback. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Use Phonetics. Text is read character by character. VoiceOver rst speaks the character, then its
phonetic equivalent—for example, “f” and then “foxtrot.”
Delete a character. Use with either standard or touch typing techniques. VoiceOver speaks

Appendix A Accessibility 140
Hearing aid compatibility
The FCC has adopted hearing aid compatibility (HAC) rules for digital wireless phones. These
rules require certain phones to be tested and rated under the American National Standard
Institute (ANSI) C63.19-2007 hearing aid compatibility standards.
The ANSI standard for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings:
•An “M” rating for reduced radio frequency interference to enable acoustic coupling with
hearing aids that are not operating in telecoil mode
•A “T” rating for inductive coupling with hearing aids operating in telecoil mode
These ratings are given on a scale from one to four, where four is the most compatible. A phone
is considered hearing aid compatible under FCC rules if it is rated M3 or M4 for acoustic coupling
and T3 or T4 for inductive coupling.
For iPhone hearing aid compatibility ratings, see www.apple.com/support/hac.
Hearing aid compatibility ratings don’t guarantee that a particular hearing aid works with a
particular phone. Some hearing aids may work well with phones that don’t meet particular
ratings. To ensure interoperability between a hearing aid and a phone, try using them together
before purchase.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this
phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the dierent
features of this phone thoroughly and in dierent locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear
implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or Apple
for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange
policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
Subtitles and closed captions
The Videos app includes an Alternate Track button , which you can tap to choose subtitles and
captions oered by the video you’re watching. Standard subtitles and captions are usually listed,
but if you prefer special accessible captions, such as subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
(SDH), you can set iPhone to list them instead when they’re available.
Prefer accessible subtitles and closed captions for the hard of hearing in the list of available
subtitles and captions. Turn on Settings > General > Accessibility > Subtitles & Captioning >
Closed Captions + SDH. This also turns on subtitles and captions in the Videos app.
Choose from available subtitles and captions. Tap while watching a video in Videos.
Customize your subtitles and captions. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Subtitles &
Captioning > Style, where you can choose an existing caption style or create a new style based
on your choice of:
•Font, size, and color
•Background color and opacity
•Text opacity, edge style, and highlight

Switch Control
Switch Control lets you control iPhone using a single switch or multiple switches. Use any of
several methods to perform actions such as selecting, tapping, dragging, typing, and even
free-hand drawing. The basic technique is to use a switch to select an item or location on the
screen, and then use the same (or dierent) switch to choose an action to perform on that item
or location. Three basic methods are:
•Item scanning (default), which highlights dierent items on the screen until you select one.
•Point scanning, which lets you use scanning crosshairs to pick a screen location.
•Manual selection, which lets you move from item to item on demand (requires multiple
switches).
Whichever method you use, when you select an individual item (rather than a group), a menu
appears so you can choose how to act on the selected item (tap, drag, or pinch, for example).
If you use multiple switches, you can set up each switch to perform a specic action and
customize your item selection method. For example, instead of automatically scanning screen
items, you can set up switches to move to the next or previous item on demand.
You can adjust the behavior of Switch Control in a variety of ways, to suit your specic needs
and style.
Add a switch and turn on Switch Control
You can use any of these as a switch:
•An external adaptive switch. Choose from a variety of popular USB or Bluetooth switches.
•The iPhone screen. Tap on the screen to trigger the switch.
•The iPhone FaceTime camera. Move your head to trigger the switch. You can use the camera as
two switches; one when you move your head to the left, and the other when you move your
head to the right.
Add a switch and choose its action. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control >
Switches.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/

switch. If you are using a single switch, it is your Select Item switch by default.
Display available actions. Select an item using the Select Item switch. Available actions appear
in the control menu that appears.
Tap an item. Use your selection method to choose Tap from the control menu that appears
when you select the item. Or turn on Settings > General > Accessibility > Switch Control >
Auto Tap, then just select an item and do nothing for the Auto Tap interval (0.75 seconds if
you haven’t adjusted it). Or set up a switch specically to perform the tap gesture at Settings >
General > Accessibility > Switch Control > Switches.
Perform other gestures or actions. Select the gesture or action from the control menu that
appears when you select the item. If you have Auto Tap turned on, trigger your switch within the
Auto Tap interval, then select the gesture. If there is more than one page of actions available, tap
the dots at the bottom of the menu to go to another page.
Dismiss the control menu. Tap while all the icons in the menu are dimmed.
Scroll the screen to see more items. Select any item on the screen, then choose Scroll from the
control menu.

Item scanning
Item scanning alternately highlights each item or group of items on the screen until you trigger
your Select Item switch to select the highlighted item. When you select a group, highlighting
continues with the items in the group. Scanning stops and a menu of actions appears when you
select a unique item. Item scanning is the default when you rst turn on Switch Control.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix A Accessibility 144
Select an item or enter a group. Watch (or listen) as items are highlighted. When the item you
want to control (or the group containing the item) is highlighted, trigger your Select Item switch.
Work your way down in the hierarchy of items until you select the individual item you want
to control.
Back out of a group. Trigger your switch when the the dashed highlight around the group or
item appears.

iPhone in Business
With support for secure access to corporate networks, directories, custom apps, and Microsoft
Exchange, iPhone is ready to go to work. For detailed information about using iPhone in
business, go to www.apple.com/iphone/business.
Mail, Contacts, and Calendar
To use iPhone with your work accounts, you need to know the settings your organization
requires. If you received your iPhone from your organization, the settings and apps you need
might already be installed. If it’s your own iPhone, your system administrator may provide you
with the settings for you to enter, or they may have you connect to a mobile device management
server that installs the settings and apps you should have.
Organizational settings and accounts are typically in conguration proles. You might be asked to
install a conguration prole that was sent to you in an email, or one that is downloaded from
a web page. When you open the le, iPhone asks for your permission to install the prole, and
displays information about what it contains.
In most cases, when you install a conguration prole that sets up an account for you, some
iPhone settings can’t be changed. For example, your organization might turn on Auto-Lock and
require you to set a passcode in order to protect the information in the accounts you access.
You can see your proles in Settings > General > Proles. If you delete a prole, all of the settings
and accounts associated with the prole are also removed, including any custom apps your
organization provided or had you download. If you need a passcode to delete a prole, contact
your system administrator.
Network access
A VPN (virtual private network) provides secure access over the Internet to private resources,
such as your organization’s network. You may need to install a VPN app from the App Store that
congures your iPhone to access a particular network. Contact your system administrator for
information about apps and settings you need.
Apps
In addition to the built-in apps and the ones you get from the App Store, your organization may
want you to have certain other apps. They might provide you with a pre-paid redemption code for
the App Store. When you download an app using a redemption code, you own it, even though
your organization purchased it for you.
Appendix
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix C iPhone in Business 150
Your organization can also purchase App Store app licenses that they assign to you for a period
of time, but that the organization retains. You’ll be invited to participate in your organization’s
program in order to access these apps. After you’re enrolled with your iTunes account, you’re
prompted to install these apps as they’re assigned to you. You can also nd them in your
Purchased list in the App Store. An app you receive this way is removed if the organization
assigns it to someone else.
Your organization might also develop custom apps that aren’t in the App Store. You’ll install
them from a webpage or, if your organization uses mobile device management, you’ll receive a
notication asking you to install them over the air. These apps belong to your organization, and
they may be removed or stop working if you delete a conguration prole or dissociate iPhone
from the mobile device management server.

Safety, Handling, & Support
Important safety information
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in re, electric shock, or other
injuries, or damage to iPhone or other property. Read all the safety information below before
using iPhone.
Handling Handle iPhone with care. It is made of metal, glass, and plastic and has sensitive
electronic components inside. iPhone can be damaged if dropped, burned, punctured, or
crushed, or if it comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged iPhone, such as one with a
cracked screen, as it may cause injury. If you’re concerned about scratching the surface of iPhone,
consider using a case or cover.
Repairing Don’t open iPhone and don’t attempt to repair iPhone by yourself. Disassembling
iPhone may damage it or may cause injury to you. If iPhone is damaged, malfunctions, or comes
in contact with liquid, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can nd more
information about getting service at www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq.
Battery Don’t attempt to replace the iPhone battery yourself—you may damage the battery,
which could cause overheating and injury. The lithium-ion battery in iPhone should be replaced
only by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, and must be recycled or disposed of
separately from household waste. Don’t incinerate the battery. For information about battery
recycling and replacement, see www.apple.com/batteries.
Distraction Using iPhone in some circumstances can distract you and may cause a dangerous
situation. Observe rules that prohibit or restrict the use of mobile phones or headphones (for
example, avoid texting while driving a car or using headphones while riding a bicycle).
Navigation Maps, directions, Flyover, and location-based apps depend on data services.
Charging Charge iPhone with the included USB cable and power adapter, or with other third-
party “Made for iPhone” cables and power adapters that are compatible with USB 2.0, or power
adapters compliant with one or more of the following standards: EN 301489-34, IEC 62684,
YD/T 1591-2009, CNS 15285, ITU L.1000, or another applicable mobile phone power adapter
interoperability standard. An iPhone Micro USB Adapter (available separately in some areas) or
other adapter may be needed to connect iPhone to some compatible power adapters. Using
damaged cables or chargers, or charging when moisture is present, can cause electric shock.
When you use the Apple USB Power Adapter to charge iPhone, make sure that the AC plug or AC
power cord is fully inserted into the adapter before you plug it into a power outlet.
Note: Only micro USB power adapters in certain regions that comply with applicable
mobile phone power adapter interoperability standards are compatible. Please contact the

Appendix
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix D Safety, Handling, & Support 152
Prolonged heat exposure iPhone and its power adapter comply with applicable surface
temperature standards and limits. However, even within these limits, sustained contact with
warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. Use common sense
to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with a device or its power adapter when it’s
operating or plugged into a power source for long periods of time. For example, don’t sleep or
place a device or power adapter under a blanket, pillow, or your body when it’s plugged into a
power source. It’s important to keep iPhone and its power adapter in a well-ventilated area when
using or charging them. Take special care if you have a physical condition that aects your ability
to detect heat against the body.
Hearing loss Listening to sound at high volumes may damage your hearing. Background noise,
as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they
actually are. Use only compatible receivers, earbuds, headphones, speakerphones, or earpieces
with your device. Turn on the audio and check the volume before inserting anything in your ear.
For more information about hearing loss, see www.apple.com/sound. For information about how
to set a maximum volume limit on iPhone, see Music settings on page 66.
WARNING: To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for
long periods.
Apple headsets The headsets sold with iPhone 4s or later in China (identiable by dark
insulating rings on the plug) are designed to comply with Chinese standards and are compatible
with iPhone 4s or later, iPad 2 or later, and iPod touch 5th generation. Use only compatible
headsets with your device.
Radio signals iPhone uses radio signals to connect to wireless networks. For information about
the amount of power used to transmit these signals, and about steps you can take to minimize
exposure, see Settings > General > About > Legal > RF Exposure.
Radio frequency interference Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use
of mobile phones (for example, in healthcare facilities or blasting areas). Although iPhone is
designed, tested, and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency
emissions, such emissions from iPhone can negatively aect the operation of other electronic
equipment, causing them to malfunction. Turn o iPhone or use Airplane Mode to turn o the
iPhone wireless transmitters when use is prohibited, such as while traveling in aircraft, or when
asked to do so by authorities.
Medical devices iPhone contains radios that emit electromagnetic elds, and contains
magnets near the bottom. The included headphones also have magnets in the earbuds. These
electromagnetic elds and magnets may interfere with pacemakers, debrillators, or other
medical devices. Maintain at least 6 inches (approximately 15 cm) of separation between your
pacemaker or debrillator and iPhone or the earbuds. If you suspect iPhone is interfering with
your pacemaker or any other medical device, stop using iPhone and consult your physician for
information specic to your medical device.
Medical conditions If you have any other medical condition that you believe could be aected
by iPhone (for example, seizures, blackouts, eyestrain, or headaches), consult with your physician
prior to using iPhone.
Explosive atmospheres Do not charge or use iPhone in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, such as a fueling area, or in areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such
as grain, dust, or metal powders). Obey all signs and instructions.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix D Safety, Handling, & Support 153
Repetitive motion When you perform repetitive activities such as typing or playing games
on iPhone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, wrists, shoulders,
neck, or other parts of your body. If you experience discomfort, stop using iPhone and consult
a physician.
High-consequence activities This device is not intended for use where the failure of the device
could lead to death, personal injury, or severe environmental damage.
Choking hazard Some iPhone accessories may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep
these accessories away from small children.
Important handling information
Cleaning Clean iPhone immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause stains—
such as dirt, ink, makeup, or lotions. To clean:
•Disconnect all cables and turn iPhone o (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, then slide
the onscreen slider).
•Use a soft, lint-free cloth.
•Avoid getting moisture in openings.
•Don’t use cleaning products or compressed air.
The front or back cover of iPhone may be made of glass with a ngerprint-resistant oleophobic
(oil repellant) coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and
abrasive materials will further diminish the coating, and may scratch the glass.
Using connectors, ports, and buttons Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive
pressure to a button, because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If
the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for
obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned
the connector correctly in relation to the port.
Lightning cable Discoloration of the Lightning plug after regular use is normal. Dirt, debris, and
exposure to liquids may cause discoloration. To remove the discoloration or if the cable becomes
warm during use or won’t charge or sync your iPhone, disconnect the Lightning cable from your
computer or power adapter and clean it with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or
cleaning products when cleaning the Lightning connector.
Operating temperature iPhone is designed to work in ambient temperatures between 32° and
95° F (0° and 35° C) and stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). iPhone
can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature
ranges. Avoid exposing iPhone to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. When you’re
using iPhone or charging the battery, it is normal for iPhone to get warm.
If the interior temperature of iPhone exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a
hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it
attempts to regulate its temperature:
•iPhone stops charging.
•The screen dims.
•A temperature warning screen appears.
•Some apps may close.
https://www.mobile-manuals.com/
Appendix D Safety, Handling, & Support 154
Important: You may not be able to use iPhone while the temperature warning screen is
displayed. If iPhone can’t regulate its internal temperature, it goes into deep sleep mode until
it cools. Move iPhone to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few minutes before
trying to use iPhone again.
