Safety and use ............................

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your cellphone.The manufacturer

disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or use

contrary to the instructions contained herein.

•TRAFFIC SAFETY:

Given that studies show that using a cellphone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even

when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their

cellphone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless

telephones and their accessories in the areas where you drive.Always obey them.The use of these

devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas.

When driving, do not use your cellphone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio. Using

a headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.

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 cellphone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,

- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the car’s electronic devices

are shielded from cellphone RF energy.

•CONDITIONS OF USE:

You are advised to switch off the telephone from time to time to optimize its performance.

Switch the cellphone off before boarding an aircraft.

Switch the cellphone 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 cellphone 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 cellphone 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. In particular when using the cellphone you should

hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.

To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your cellphone 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 your cellphone without supervision.

When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain substances that could

create an allergic reaction.

Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.

Do not allow your cellphone to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions

(moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc.).The manufacturer’s recommended

operating temperature range is -10°C to +55°C (the max value depends on device, materials and

housing paint/texture). Over 55°C the legibility of the cellphone’s display may be impaired, though

this is temporary and not serious.

•RADIO WAVES:

THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO

WAVES.

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), 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 cellphone 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

cellphone while operating can be well below the maximum value.This is because the cellphone 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 cellphone. Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public, compliance

with national regulations and standards must be shown.

The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is:

OT-S319A: 1.07 W/Kg for use at the ear and 0.99 W/Kg for use close to the body.

OT-S321A: 1.18 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.29 W/Kg for use close to the body.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at various

positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation,

the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic

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.
