Safety first
Your new phone is a convenient and effective communications tool, but it can be
hazardous when used improperly. To avoid harming yourself or anyone else, please
review the following information before using your phone.
Batteries
Batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if the terminals are touched with a
conductive material (for example, metal jewellery, keys, and so on). Therefore, use
caution when handling a charged battery. Additional precautions and notes are listed
below:
• Never throw a battery into a fire; it may explode.
• Fully recharge the battery if the battery is low or as soon as the low-battery alert beeps.
• Do not drop the battery.
• Do not allow bridging of battery contacts with metallic objects.
• Do not remove the battery from the phone while the phone is powered on. Settings you

by Panasonic or your Service Provider may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury.
Panasonic is not responsible for damage caused by using non-Panasonic accessories.
• Do not expose charging adapters to moisture, water, or the weather.
• Do not use an adapter with a damaged cord.
• When using a DC adapter in an automobile, a small amount of electricity flows
through the adapter, even if the phone is turned off. Remove the plug from the
cigarette lighter whenever the phone will be left in the vehicle for long periods of time.
• Always charge the battery in a well ventilated area, not in direct sunlight, between
41°F (5°C) and 95°F (35°C). It is not possible to recharge the battery if it is outside
this temperature range.
• Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery as ordinary trash. The battery must be
disposed of in accordance with local legislation and may be recycled.
Caution: The cigarette lighter must have a 12V negative ground socket. Do not use the
adapter in a vehicle that has a positive ground system.
General
• Do not use the phone in extreme temperature or humidity. The specified operating
temperature range is -22°F to +140°F (-30°C to +60°C).
• Extreme temperatures may have a temporary effect on the operation of your phone.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault.
• Do not expose the phone (particularly the display) to direct sunlight for extended

the product to which you are connecting it.
Availability of service
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline
networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connection in all conditions
cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for
essential communications (for example, medical emergencies).
Emergency (911) service
If you need to make an emergency (911) call, power the phone on, dial 911, and press D.
Emergency calls can be made regardless of lock setting and with or without a SIM card.
Remember, to make or receive any call, the phone must be switched on and in a service
area that has adequate signal strength. Even if you are within the coverage area of your
Service Provider, you may be in an area with insufficient signal strength to place a 911
call. Emergency calls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when
certain network service and/or phone features are in use.

Safety tips
Following the suggestions in this section will help ensure safe and efficient operation of
your Panasonic phone.
This Model Phone Meets The Government’s Requirements For Exposure To Radio
Waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level
of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required
to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to
the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at
the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR
value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.412 W/kg and when worn
on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.200 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported
SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
NWJ23C002A.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at
http://www.wow-com.com.
Caution: All Panasonic branded accessories are tested and comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements. Non-Panasonic accessories may not comply.

Body-worn operation
This device was tested for body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1.5 cm.
from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only
belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 1.5 cm. separation distance
between the user’s body and the back of the phone. The use of belt-clips, holsters and
similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, and should be avoided.
Antenna care
This mobile phone incorporates an internal antenna for radio communisation. Do not use
the phone if it is damaged. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Driving
Important: Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas
where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving:
• Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your first responsibility;
• Use handsfree operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
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.
Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (6”) or 15 centimeters (15 cm) be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone
OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids: Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, consult your Service Provider and hearing aid manufacturer.
Other Medical Devices: 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 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.
Vehicles: RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding
your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities: Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air; switch off your phone before
boarding an aircraft unless otherwise advised by airline personnel.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting
area” or in other areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey
all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.
They include fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or
portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.
For U.S. Customers: Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane)
must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58).

TEN (10) DRIVER SAFETY TIPS
Your wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice-almost anywhere,
anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that
every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the
wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the
road.
2. When available, use a hands free device. If possible, add an additional layer of
convenience and safety to your wireless phone with one of the many hands free
accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access your wireless
phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet,
snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to do"
list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be
stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the
road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations
that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number
in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call
on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call
9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance
number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard,
a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a
vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency
wireless number.
"The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving."
