Important Health Information and Safety Precautions
When using this product, the safety precautions below must be taken to avoid
possible legal liabilities and damages.
Retain and follow all product safety and operating instructions. Observe all
warnings in the operating instructions on the product.
To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electric shock, fire, and damage to the

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
This product is intended for use when supplied with power from the designated
battery or power supply unit. Other usage may be dangerous and will invalidate
any approval given to this product.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER GROUNDING INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Connecting to an improperly grounded equipment can result in an
electric shock to your device.
This product is equipped with a USB Cable for connecting with desktop or
notebook computer. Be sure your computer is properly grounded (earthed) before
connecting this product to the computer. The power supply cord of a desktop or
6
notebook computer has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet which is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR POWER SUPPLY UNIT

required, consult your authorized service provider or local power company.
For a product that operates from battery power or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions that are included with the product.
Handle battery packs carefully
This product contains a Li-ion battery. There is a risk of fire and burns if the
battery pack is handled improperly. Do not attempt to open or service the
battery pack. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts or
circuits, dispose of in fire or water, or expose a battery pack to temperatures
higher than 60˚C (140˚F).
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.
7
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.
The phone should only be connected to products that bear the USB-IF
logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
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.
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.
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.

SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT
Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation
system and its communications network, using this devices 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 your phone by switching to
Airplane 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, chemical plants, 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
9
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.
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 phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of
a building).
Avoid using your phone 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 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.
10
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.
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. 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.

screen. Cracked display screens due to improper handling are not covered by
the warranty.
