Health and safety information SAR certification information This phone meets European Union (EU) requirements concerning exposure to radio waves. Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured to not exceed the limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as recommended by the EU Council. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
Precautions when using batteries • • • • • • • • Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places because the capacity and lifetime of the battery will be reduced. Try to keep the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below 0°C (32°F). Do not short-circuit the battery.
Health and safety information When you are driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone while driving, follow local regulations in the country or region you are in. Operating environment Remember to follow any special regulations in force in the area you are in, and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
Potentially explosive environments If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Health and safety information Emergency calls Other important safety information This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless, and landline networks as well as userprogrammed functions, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications like medical emergencies. • To make or receive calls, the phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal strength.
Care and maintenance • • • • • • Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of small children. Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity, and liquids contain minerals that corrode electronic circuits. Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to the phone. Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as its moving parts may be damaged. Do not store the phone in hot areas.
