Keep metal objects away so they don’t come in contact with the battery or its connectors as it may
lead to short circuit during operation.
•
Do not use a battery that appears damaged, deformed, or discolored, or one that has any rust on its
casing, overheats, or emits a foul odor.
•
Always keep the battery out of the reach of babies and small children, to avoid swallowing of the
battery. Consult the doctor immediately if the battery is swallowed.
•
If the battery leaks:
• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with skin or clothing. If already in contact, flush
the affected area immediately with clean water and seek medical advice.
• Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with eyes. If already in contact, DO NOT rub; rinse
with clean water immediately and seek medical advice.
• Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away from fire as there is a danger of ignition or
explosion.
•
Communicate the appropriate steps immediately in case a hazard occurs.
6
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR DIRECT SUNLIGHT
Keep this product away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not leave the product or its
battery inside a vehicle or in places where the temperature may exceed 140°F, such as on a car dashboard,
window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of
time. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a risk to the vehicle.
PREVENTION OF HEARING LOSS
CAUTION: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or headphones are used at
high volume for prolonged periods of time.
SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT
Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation system and its communications
network, using this device’s phone function on board an airplane is against the law in most countries. If you want
to use this device when on board an aircraft, remember to turn off the phone by switching to Flight Mode.
ENVIRONMENTAL RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress,
or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust,
or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product
should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling
points such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially
explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
7
ROAD SAFETY
In some states or local jurisdictions, vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with
handheld devices, except in the case of emergency. In some countries outside the US, using hands-free devices
as an alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
•
Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound speakers,
TV and radio.
•
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not contain any metal.
•
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines and
should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most hospitals
and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it
is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn the 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.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure the
radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users
are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended
that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
8
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and
damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as
result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human
exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in
the relevant standards, always use your device only in its
normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna
area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call.
Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and
cause your device to operate at a higher power level than
needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the
phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and
the battery life.
