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.
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.
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.
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.
10
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.
