environments where workers need to keep application sessions
open at all times, throughout the working day, as the user
connects via various wireless networks, encounters gaps in
coverage, or suspend-and-resumes their devices to preserve
battery life. A conventional VPN cannot survive such events
because the network tunnel is disrupted, causing applications
to disconnect, time out, fail, or even the computing device itself
to crash.

Product safety information

RF exposure
General statement on RF energy
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON,
it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power
level at which your phone transmits.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific organisation ICNIRP and
include safety margins designed to ensure the protection of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg
and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear
was 1.126 W/kg (1) and when tested near the body (at a distance
of 10 mm) the highest SAR value was 1.101 W/kg. As mobile
devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other
positions, such as on the body as described in this user guide.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest transmitting
power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes
to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum power required to communicate with the network.
Body worn operation
Important safety information regarding radiofrequency radiation
(RF) exposure.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone
must be used with a minimum of 10 mm separation from the
body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF
exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.

Switch off in explosive environments
Only use approved accessories
(1)

The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard PT62209-1.

Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF
fields, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the following
advice:
Precautionary measures: present scientific information does
not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of
mobile phones. 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 mobile
phones away from the head and body.
Further information on this subject can be obtained from the
WHO home page http://www.who.int/peh-emf WHO Fact sheet
193: June 2000.

Regulatory information
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as

Emergency calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore,
you must never rely solely on any wireless phone for emergency
communications.
Loud noise
This phone is capable of producing loud noises which may
damage your hearing. Prolonged exposure to music at full
volume on the music player may damage the listener’s hearing.
Use the recommended headphones only.
PROTECT YOUR HEARING

Take care not to touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or key
rings, to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
Connection to a car
Seek professional advice when connecting a phone interface to
the vehicle’s electrical system.
Faulty and damaged products
Do not attempt to disassemble the phone or its accessories.
Only qualified personnel must service or repair the phone or its
accessories.
If your phone or its accessories have been submerged in water,
punctured, or subjected to a severe fall, do not use them until you
have taken it to be checked at an authorised service centre.

Battery handling & safety
Always switch the device off and disconnect the charger before
removing the battery.
Only use the battery and charger supplied, or manufacturer
approved replacements intended for use with your phone. Using
other batteries and chargers could be dangerous.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery. Accidental shortcircuiting can occur if a metallic object such as a key, paper clip,

Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other
hazard. If you believe the battery has been damaged, do not use
it, take it to a service centre for testing.
Interference
General statement on interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and
a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
To achieve this use the phone on the opposite ear to your
pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may
experience interference noises when using wireless devices or
when one is nearby. The level of interference will depend on the

use your telephone by entering * # 0 6 # and keep it in a safe
place. It may be requested by the police or your operator if your
telephone is stolen. This number allows your mobile telephone
