Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use n o s . c In industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1). Since its introduction in the mid 1980s the mobile phone is one of the most exciting and innovative products ever developed. Your phone can help you to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency services and others. s c i r The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Driving Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against RF signals from your wireless phone. s c i r • Use handsfree operation, if available. • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Blasting Areas want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives). Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Product Care and Operation Ericsson suggests you read an observe the following for safe care and operation of your phone: n o s • To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit from the power source before attempting any cleaning. Once unplugged, use a soft cloth lightly dampened with water for cleaning. • Do not allow children to play with your phone. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the phone.
n o s • Do not attempt to take a battery apart. • Do not expose a battery to open flame. This could cause the battery to explode.
