Safety information i
Safety information
For your safety, please read the guidelines below carefully before
you use your phone:
Exposure to radio frequency signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power transmitter and
receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency
(RF) signals.
European and international agencies have set standards and
recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy.
•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996
•Verband Deutscher Elektringenieure (VDE) DIN- 0848
•Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in
Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy
•National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11,
1988
•American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1- 1992
•National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Report 86
•Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6
Max. SAR measurement
EU: DCS1800: 0.154 W/Kg.
USA: PCS1900:0.366 W/Kg (head); 0.301 W/Kg (body). GSM850: 0.692
W/Kg (head); 0.927 W/Kg (body).
ii Safety information
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example,
over 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,
government health agencies and industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the updated ANSI Standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used
normally.
Specific operating restrictions
No metallic component allowed in body-worn accessories.
Phone operation
•Normal Position: Hold the phone as you would with any other
telephone.
•To avoid potential RF interference, please do not wear the phone
around your neck or in front your chest for long hours.
Batteries
•For safety concerns, when the temperature of the phone goes over
45°C (113F) or below 0°C (32F), charging will halt.
•Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C (14F) or above
45°C (113F). Always take your phone with you when you leave your
vehicle.
•Use only genuine battery to ensure the phone’s normal operation.
Safety information iii
All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive
material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touches exposed terminals.
The material may complete electrical circuit and become quite hot. To
protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any
charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or
other container with metal objects. When battery is detached from the
phone, your batteries are packed with a protective battery cover; please
use this cover for storing your batteries when not in use.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the
areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while
driving, please:
•Give full attention to driving--driving safety is your first responsibility.
•Use hands-free operation, if available.
•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However,
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6") inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
iv Safety information
•Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
•Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
•Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that the interference is taking place, turn
your phone OFF immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference you may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted
in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may
be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Ve h ic l es
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Turn you r ph one OFF in any facility where posted notice so requires.
Safety information v
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF
your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when
in a “blasting area” or in area posted “TURN OFF TWO-WAY RADIO.”
Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn you r ph one OFF and do not remove the battery when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks, from your battery, in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below
deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
vi Safety information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. this device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal
and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use
of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not
holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm
from your body when the phone is switched on.

Troubleshooting 79
Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs
erratically, you can consult the information in the chart below. If your
particular problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart,
contact the dealer where you purchased the phone.
Problem Possible cause Solution
Poor
reception
•The network signal is too
weak at your current
location—for example, in
a basement or near a tall
building-because wireless
transmissions can not
effectively reach it.
Move to a location where the
network signal can be
properly received.
•The network is busy at
the current time (for
example, during peak
times, there may be too
much network traffic to
handle additional calls).
Avoid using the phone at
such times, or try again after
waiting a short time.
•You are too far away from
a base station for your
network operator.
You can request a service
area map from your network
operator.
Echo or noise
•Poor network trunk quality
on the part of your
network operator.
Hang up the phone and dial
again. You may be switched
to a better-quality network
trunk or phone line.
•Poor local telephone line
quality.
80 Troubleshooting
Shortened
standby time
•The standby time is
related to your network
operator's system
configuration. The same
phone used with different

systems will not provide
exactly the same length
of standby time.
If you are located in an area
where signaling is weak,
temporarily shut off the
phone.
•The battery is depleted. In
high-temperature
environments, battery life
will be shortened.
Use a new battery.
•If you are not able to
connect to the network,
the phone will continue to
send out signals as it
attempts to locate a base
station. Doing so
consumes battery power
and will consequently
shorten standby time.
Change your location to one
where the network is
accessible, or temporarily
turn off your phone.
You cannot
switch your
phone on.
•Battery power has been
depleted.
