Safety Precautions for Direct Sunlight
Store this product away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not leave the product or its battery
inside a vehicle or in places where the temperature may exceed 60°C (14F), such as on a car dashboard, window sill,
or behind glass that is exposed to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time. This may damage
the product, overheat the battery, or pose a risk to the vehicle.
Environmental Restrictions
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in
potentially explosive atmospheres such as fueling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or
metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
Aircraft Safety
Due to the possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation system and its communications
network, using this wireless device on board is prohibited in most countries. Please switch your device off before
boarding an aircraft.
Safety Precautions for RF Exposure
1. Use of non-original, non-manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines and
should be avoided.
2. Use only original, manufacturer-approved accessories when such accessories contain metal of any kind.
3. Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and
radio.
4. Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
Explosive Atmospheres
When in an area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the device should be
turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the device at refueling points such as service or gas
stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical
plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked such as fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and
including, but not limited to areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Interference with Medical Equipment Functions
This device may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is prohibited in most hospitals and
medical clinics for which regulations and rules are commonly posted in such facilities. In these instances, turn your
device OFF as health care facilities frequently use equipment that is adversely affected by RF energy. If you use any
personal medical device(s), consult the manufacturer of your device(s) to determine if the device(s) is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your health care provider may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Non-ionizing Radiation
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative
performance and safety from interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the device and for personal safety, it is recommended that no part of the human body should
come too close to the antenna during equipment operation.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage
the device, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits, as well as causing
non-compliance with local and national regulatory requirements. In order to limit RF energy exposure and to ensure
optimal device performance, operate the device only it its normal-use position. Contact with the antenna area may
impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed which can reduce antenna
performance and battery life.
