Battery care and safety
Keep the battery in a cool, ventilated place and out of direct sunlight.
Although the battery is rechargeable, it’ll eventually start to lose its ability to
recharge. If you find that the battery won’t recharge, it’s time to replace it.
Please don’t throw old batteries into your household rubbish. You’ll find there are
special bins for batteries at refuse collection points. And some high street
electrical stores provide a battery recycling service too.
Never throw the battery into a fire – it’s highly inflammable and could explode,
hurting you or somebody else.
When you put the battery into your phone, there’s no need to use force. Exerting
too much pressure could make it leak, overheat, explode or burst into flame.
68
Never take the battery apart. This may result in leakage, overheating, explosion
or fire.
If the battery becomes hot, changes colour or shape at any time (when in use,
charging or even while in storage) please stop using it immediately and replace.
Keep the battery dry. Damp or wet conditions can cause it to overheat or
corrode.
Don’t leave the battery in direct sunlight or anywhere really hot, like in a car on a
summer’s day. That could make it leak or overheat, while lowering its
performance and shortening its life.
Don’t charge the battery continuously for 24 hours. Overcharging is not good for
it.
Note:
Please avoid contact with the materials inside a damaged or leaking
battery. If they get on your skin, wash with lots of water and seek medical
assistance if required.
Charger care and safety
Only plug into voltages between 100VAC and 240VAC. Using a voltage outside
that range can damage the phone/charger – and cause the battery to leak or
catch fire.
69
Never short-circuit the charger – this may cause electrocution, overheating or
damage.
Don’t charge the phone in direct sunlight or in an area where it’s damp, dusty, or
on a vibrating surface. And charging your phone near – or on – a TV or radio
could interfere with transmission.
Don’t use the charger if the power cable is damaged. It may cause a fire or give
someone an electric shock.
Keep water well away from the charger. If the charger does get splashed by
water, or any other kind of liquid, immediately unplug it to avoid overheating,
fire or electrocution.
Don’t take the charger apart. It could cause injury, give you an electric shock or
catch fire.
Never touch any charger, electric cable or socket with wet hands.
Don’t place heavy objects on the electric cable.
If the cable is damaged, don’t try to mend it yourself – it could cause a fire or
electrocute you.
Always unplug the charger before you clean it.
When unplugging the charger, hold the plug itself, rather than pulling on the
cable. A damaged cable can cause electrocution or fire.
Care and maintenance
Your phone is a delicate device. The following advice will help you to keep it
looking good and performing well…
70
Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone, battery and charger. Don’t use liquids
such as alcohol, dilution agents or benzene.
From time-to-time, clean the socket where the charger cable connects to the
phone. Dust tends to gather there. This will ensure a really good connection.
Don’t use needles, pen points or other sharp objects on the keypad or screen.
Don’t use your phone with wet hands – it could injure you and damage the
phone.
Don’t use your phone in dusty or dirty environment.
Keep your phone away from extremes of heat – like radiators or ovens. It may
explode if it gets too hot.
If your phone gets wet and the colour of the label on it changes, the warranty
will be void, even if the warranty period hasn’t expired.
If there’s anything wrong with the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory,
please send them to your nearest service centre for inspection.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the United States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF
exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and near the body with the
separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the device 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.
73
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure
limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the
measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528. This device has
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when tested with the
device directly contacted to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
