Safety instructions
Warning!
The unit and the accessories can contain small parts.
Keep all of the equipment out of the reach of small children.
The mains adapter is the disconnect device between the
product and mains power. The mains socket outlet must be
close to the equipment and easily accessible.
Operating environment
Follow the rules and laws that apply wherever you are, and always turn
off the unit whenever its use is prohibited or can cause interference or
hazards. Only use the unit in its normal user position.
This unit complies with guidelines for radiation when it is used either in
a normal position against your ear, or when it is at least 1.5 cm from your
body. If the unit is carried close to your body in a case, belt holder or
other holder, these holders should not contain any metal, and the product

sure that the distance instructions above are followed until the transfer is
complete.
Parts of the unit are magnetic. The unit can attract metal objects. Do not
keep credit cards or other magnetic media near the unit. There is a risk
that information stored on them can be erased.

Consult a doctor or the manufacturer of the equipment to determine if it
has adequate protection against external radio signals, or if you have any
questions. If notices have been put up at health care facilities instructing
you to turn off the unit while you are there, you should comply. Hospitals
and other health care facilities sometimes use equipment that can be
sensitive to external radio signals.
35
English
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers:
 Should always keep the phone more than 15 cm 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 interference is taking place, turn
the phone off immediately.
Areas with explosion risk
Always turn off the unit when you are in an area where there is a risk of
explosion. Follow all signs and instructions. There is a risk of explosion
in places that include areas where you are normally requested to turn off

Follow the restrictions that apply to the use of radio equipment near
places where fuel is stored and sold, chemical factories and places where
blasting is in progress.
Areas with risk for explosion are often – but not always – clearly marked.
This also applies to below decks on ships; the transport or storage of
chemicals; vehicles that use liquid fuel (such as propane or butane); areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powder.

Emergency calls
Important!
Mobile phones use radio signals, the mobile phone network, the terrestrial
network and user-programmed functions. This means that connection
cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances. Therefore, never rely only on a
mobile phone for very important calls such as medical emergencies.
Hearing aids
This device should work with most hearing aid equipment in the market.
However, full compatibility with all equipment can not be promised.
Vehicles
Radio signals can affect electronic systems in motor vehicles (for
example, electronic fuel injection, ABS brakes, automatic cruise control,
air bag systems) that have been incorrectly installed or are inadequately
protected. Contact the manufacturer or its representative for more
information about your vehicle or any additional equipment.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of

level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when
tested for use at the ear is 0.088 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.537 W/kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and
FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF

the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.

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 the positions the handset a minimum of 5/8 inch (1.5 cm) from the
body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC
RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are
not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 5/8

Canadian ICES-003. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
 Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
 Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
The FCC or Industry Canada can require you to stop using your telephone
if such interference cannot be eliminated.

Care and maintenance
Your unit is a technically advanced product and should be treated with the
greatest care. Negligence may void the warranty.
 Protect the unit from moisture. Rain/snowfall, moisture and all types of
liquid can contain substances that corrode the electronic circuits. If the
unit gets wet, you should remove the battery and allow the unit to dry
completely before you replace it.
 Do not use or keep the unit in dusty, dirty environments. The unit’s
moving parts and electronic components can be damaged.
 Do not keep the unit in warm places. High temperatures can reduce the
lifespan for electronic equipment, damage batteries and distort or melt
certain plastics.
 Do not keep the unit in cold places. When the unit warms up to normal
temperature, condensation can form on the inside which can damage
the electronic circuits.
 Do not try to open the unit in any other way than that which is indicated
here.
 Do not drop the unit. Do not knock or shake it either. If it is treated
roughly the circuits and precision mechanics can be broken.
 Do not use strong chemicals to clean the unit.
Do not expose your product to extreme high or low temperatures. Your phone
operates best in temperature between 0 °C and 40°C. Minimum and maximum
temperatures recommended by the manufacturer are 0°C and 40°C.
The advice above applies to the unit, battery, mains adapter and other
accessories. If the phone is not working as it should, please contact the
place of purchase for service. Don’t forget the receipt or a copy of the
invoice.
