Important safety information
Operating environment
Make sure that no special regulation is
in force that imposes restrictions on the
use of mobile telephones. Restrictions to
mobile telephones would also apply to
this phone.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from radio frequency (RF) sig-
nals. However, certain electronic equip-
ment may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend
that a minimum separation of 20 cm (6
inches) be maintained between a hand-
held wireless phone and a pacemaker
The same restriction should apply to the
external antenna of the phone. If you
have any reason to suspect that interfer
-
ence is taking place, switch off the phone
immediately.
Hearing aids
The phone radio signals may interfere
with some hearing aids. In such event
move the antenna as far away as practi
-
cal or consult your hearing aid supplier.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting
equipment, including the phone, may
interfere with the function of inadequately
protected medical devices. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the
medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF
energy or if you have any questions.
Switch off your phone in health care
facilities when any regulations posted
in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive
to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles (e.g. electronic
fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid
(anti-lock) braking systems, electronic
speed control systems, airbag systems).
Check with the manufacturer or its rep
-
resentative regarding your vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of
any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Do not install the phone or site the anten-
na in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and in-
structions. Areas with a potentially explo-
sive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles
using liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane): areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as
grain, dust or metal powders.
Emergency calls
Important! The phone, like any wireless
phone, operates using radio signals,
wireless and landline networks, as well
as user-programmed functions, which
cannot guarantee connection in all
conditions. Therefore, you should never
rely solely upon any wireless phone for
essential communications (e.g. medical
emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls
the phone must be switched on and in a
service area with adequate cellular signal
strength. Emergency calls may not be
possible on all wireless phone networks
or when certain network services and/or
phone features are in use. Check with lo
-
cal cellular service providers. Emergency
calls may be made even when a SIM
card is not installed (subject to network
availability) using the 112 dialling code.
