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.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of cellphone use on aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems: Turn off your mobile device in
any location where posted notices instruct you to do so. In an aircraft, turn off your
mobile device whenever instructed to do so by airline staff. If your mobile device
offers an airplane mode or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
24 25
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

awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. To limit the likelihood of
such symptoms, please take the following safety precautions:
- Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.
When you play games on your cellphone, 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.
Prolonged exposure to music at full volume using the music player may damage
your hearing. Set your cellphone’s volume to it’s lowest setting prior to inserting

Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):
Travel charger: Input: 100~240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15A
Output: 5V, 400/550 mA
Battery: Lithium 1000 mAh
• 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
28 29
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 0.505 W/Kg for
use at the ear and 0.926 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.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.phonefacts.net
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.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio service
(e.g. FM broadcast), they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Your cellphone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you
should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other
than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with
the guidelines when used with headset or usb data cable. If you are using another
accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it
positions the cellphone at least 1.5 cm away from the body.
