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.
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.

Limited and it’s affiliates.
• PRIVACY:
Please note that you must respect the laws and regulations in force in your
jurisdiction or other jurisdiction(s) where you will use your cellphone regarding
taking photographs and recording sounds with your cellphone. Pursuant to such
laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden to take photographs and/or to
record the voices of other people or any of their personal attributes, and reproduce
or distribute them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy.
It is the user’s sole responsibility to ensure that prior authorization be obtained,
if necessary, in order to record private or confidential conversations or take a
photograph of another person; the manufacturer, the seller or vendor of your
cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liability which may result from
the improper use of the cellphone.
• BATTERY AND ACCESSORIES:

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 jurisdictions:
Items of equipment with this symbol are not to be thrown into ordinary bins
if your jurisdiction or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities;
instead they are to be taken to collection points for them to be recycled.
In the United States you may learn more about CTIA’s Recycling Program at
www.recyclewirelessphones.com
CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN
INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS
• CHARGERS:
Home A.C./ Travel chargers will operate within the temperature range of: 0°C (32°F)
to 40°C (104°F).
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety
of information technology equipment and office equipment use. They are also
compliant to the ecodesign directive 2009/125/EC. 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, 1000 mA
Battery: Lithium 1400 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.
9 10
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 for use at the
ear is 1.41 W/Kg @ 1 gram and when properly worn on the body is 1.35 W/
Kg @ 1 gram
To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device should
be positioned at least 1.0 cm away from 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 10 mm 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.
