Troubleshooting ................................................................56 Safety and Use ...................... We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the instructions contained in this manual. • TRAFFIC SAFETY: Given that studies, which show that using a cellphone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is used (headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their cellphone when the vehicle is not parked When switched on, your cellphone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem: - do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area. - check with your dealer or car manufacturer to make sure that the car’s electronics devices are well shielded. • CONDITIONS OF USE: Your are advised to switch off your cellphone from time to time to optmise performance. Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft to avoid prosecution. Switch the phone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment now in regular use, cellphones can interfere with other electrical or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency. Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere. When the phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump. When using the phone you should hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any. To avoid hearing impairment, pick up the call before holding your phone to your ear. Also move the handset away from your ear while using the “hands-free” option because the amplified volume might cause hearing damage. Do not let small children use the phone without supervision. When replacing the cover please note that your phone may contain substances that could create an allergic reaction. Always handle your phone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place. ELLE_N°2_UM_USA-08-06-06 8/06/06 10:15 Page 5 Do not allow your phone to be exposed to unfavourable environmental conditions (moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc). The manufacturer’s recommended operating temperature range is -20°C to +55°C.Over 55°C the legibility of the phone’s display may be impaired, though this is temporary and not serious. Do not open or attempt to repair your cellphone yourself. Do not drop, throw or try to bend your cellphone. Do not paint it. Use only Alcatel batteries, battery chargers, and accessories that are compatible with your phone model (see page 55). T&A Mobile Phones Limited or its affiliates disclaim any liability for damage caused by the use of other batteries. Your phone should not be disposed of in a municipal dump. Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products. Remember to make back-up copies or keep a written record of all important information stored in your phone. Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when playing video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person never had a previous seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing videos games on your phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone. Parents should monitor their children’s use of video games or other features that incorporate flashing lights on the phones. All persons should discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following safety precautions: - Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need sleep. - Take a minimum of a 15- minute break hourly. - Play in a room in which all lights are on. - Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen. When you play games on your phone, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. Follow these instructions to avoid problems such as tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or other musculoskeletal disorders: - Take a minimum of a 15 minute-break every hour of game playing. - If your hands, wrists, or arms become tired or sore while playing, stop and rest for several hours before playing again. - If you continue to have sore hands, wrists, or arms during or after playing, stop the game and see a doctor. This symbol on your telephone, the battery and the accessories means that these products must be taken to collection points at the end of their life: - Municipal waste disposal centres with specific bins for these items of equipment - Collection bins at points of sale. They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in the environment, so that their components can be reused. In European Union countries: These collection points are accessible free of charge. All products with this sign must be brought to these collection points. In non European Union countries: Items of equipment with this symbol are not be thrown into ordinary bins if your country or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they are to be taken to collection points for them to be recycled. • BATTERY: Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off. Take precautions with the battery and do not attempt to open the battery (chemical substances may cause burns). Do not pierce, disassemble nor cause a short-circuit in a battery. Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in household waste or store it at temperatures above 60 °C. Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental legislation. Batteries should not be used for any other purpose than the one intended. Never use damaged batteries or not recommended by T&A Mobile Phones Limited and/or its affiliates. • CHARGERS: Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range: 0°C to 40°C. The chargers designed for your cellphone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and office equipment use. They should be used for this purpose only. Electrical characteristic of power supply (depending on the country): 110 V charger (used in Mexico): Input: 100-127 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.30 A Output: 4.5 V, 350 mA 220 V charger: Input: 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.30 A Output: 4.5 V, 350 mA Battery: Lithium 650 mAh • RADIO WAVES: THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. ELLE_N°2_UM_USA-08-06-06 8/06/06 10:15 Page 7 Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy. 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. These guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government (FCC), the Australian Communications Authority (ACA) or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions 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 of the phone. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested is: 1.05 W/kg for use at the ear and 0.501 W/kg for use close to the body, While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a nonmetallic accessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of cellphones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using "hands-free" devices to keep cellphones away from the head and body (fact sheet n°193). Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf. Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
