Security
Your contacts are backed-up on MOTOBLUR, so don’t
worry. Even if you lose your phone, MOTOBLUR can
help you find it or wipe it. And when you get your next
MOTOBLUR product, your stored info makes it a snap
to set up with just your username and password.
Of course, it doesn't stop there. There are plenty of
ways to protect your phone and your information,
in “Security” on page 47.
Stands up to life
Your MOTOROLA DEFY with MOTOBLUR stands up
to water, dust and life, because accidents happen.
Now your investment is protected from life’s little
challenges, like that sudden rain shower and other
everyday mishaps.
Of course, your phone isn’t indestructible, so to avoid
damage from natural elements, such as water, sand
and dust intrusion, always make sure that the battery
door cover and connector covers are closed and
secure.
If your phone gets wet and/or dirty:
Wipe with a soft cloth and shake to remove excess
water from the entire phone, especially the display
screen, speaker and microphone ports.

Allow your phone to air-dry for at least 2 hours
before using it again.
Always make sure to clean all dirt and debris from
the battery door cover/seals and connector covers.

underwater.
