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 cellphones 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 cellphone from time to time to optimize its
performance.
Switch the cellphone off before boarding an aircraft to avoid prosecution.
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.
• Damage from exposure to water or other liquids, moisture, humidity,
excessive temperatures or extreme environmental conditions, sand,
excess dust and any condition outside the operating guidelines;
• Defects in appearance, cosmetic, decorative or structural items such
as framing and non-operative parts.
There are no express warranties, whether written, oral or implied,
other than this printed limited warranty or the mandatory warranty
provided by your jurisdiction. In no event shall TCT Mobile or any of
its affiliates be liable for incidental or consequential damages of any
nature whatsoever, including but not limited to commercial loss, to the
full extent those damages can be disclaimed by law. Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, or limitation of the duration of implied warranties, so the
preceding limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

40°C.
The chargers designed for your cellphone meet with the standard for safety of
information technology equipment and office equipment use. Due to different
applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one jurisdiction may
not work in another jurisdiction. They should be used for this purpose only.
Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):
Travel charger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A
Output: 5 V, 350/400 mA

• 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 0,606 W/Kg for use
at the ear and 1,26 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.
