Safety instructions
TIA’s Safety Information
This includes complete security information on wireless phones
from TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association).
It’s required, for CTIA Certification, the inclusion in the user manual of
text covering pacemakers, hearing aids and other medical devices. It’s
encouraged the use of the remaining TIA language when relevant.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a lowpower radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set
by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the
relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
* American National Standards Institute; National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Safety instructions

Suggestions for a more efficient operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily, when the phone is in use. The
contact with the antenna affects call quality, and may cause the phone to
operate at a higher power level than otherwise would be need.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations related to the use of wireless
phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey these
regulations. Also, if using your phone while driving, make sure to:
• Pay full attention to driving; driving safely is your first responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park, before making or answering a
call, if driving conditions demand so.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemaker
The Medical Industry Manufacturers Association recommends a minimum distance
of fifteen (15) centimeters, or six (6) inches, between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker, in order to avoid potential interference between them.
These advices are consistent with independent researches, and
with recommendations based on wireless technology research.
People with pacemakers should:
• Always keep the product more than six (6) inches from their
pacemaker when the product is turned ON.
• Not carry the phone in a shirt pocket.
• Use the ear opposite to the pacemaker, to minimize the potential interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, switch off your phone immediately.
Safety instructions

Anti-Theft Guide
Set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it's been
reset to factory settings without your permission. For example, if
your device is lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone with your
Google account or screen lock information can use the device.
All you need to make sure your device is protected is:
• Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you
have a screen lock set, the device can't be erased using
the Settings menu unless your screen is unlocked.
• Add your Google account on your device: If your device is wiped but
you have your Google account on it, the device can't finish the setup
process until your Google account information is entered again.
After your device is protected, you'll need to either unlock your screen
or enter your Google account password if you need to do a factory
reset. This ensures that you or someone you trust is doing the reset.
• Do not forget your Google account and password you had added to
your device prior to performing a factory reset. If you can't provide the
account information during the setup process, you won't be able to use
the device at all after performing the factory reset.
