WARNING: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. To
reduce risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short
external contacts, expose to temperature above 60° C (140° F), or
dispose of in fire or water. Replace only with specified batteries. Recycle
or dispose of used batteries according to the local regulations or
reference guide supplied with your product.
• Take extra precautions
• Keep the battery or device dry and away from water or any liquid as it may
cause a short circuit.
• 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 the
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.
6
• 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.
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 60°C (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 AIRCRAFTS
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.
ENVIRONMENT 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
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with handheld
devices, except in the case of emergency. In some countries, 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 FUNCTIONS
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.
8
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.
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.
Internal
antenna
location
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.
