• Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving
parts and prevent proper operation.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or
attachments could damage the phone and may vi-
olate regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory are
not working properly, take them to your nearest
qualified service facility. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
Important Safety
Information
Traffic Safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a ve-
hicle. If using a hand-held phone park the vehicle be-
fore conversing. Always secure the phone in its holder;
do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where
it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle's lights
or horn on public roads is not permitted.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in
any area and always switch off your phone whenever
it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interfer-
ence or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to an-
other device, read its Owner’s guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of
the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is rec-
ommended that the equipment should only be used in
the normal operating position (Held to your ear with
the antenna pointing over your shoulder.).
Do not point the infrared beam at anyone’s eye or al-
low it to interfere with other infrared devices.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from ra-
dio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a mini-
mum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be maintained be-
tween a hand-held wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Tech-
nology Research.
Persons with pacemaker:
• Should always keep the phone more than 20 cm (6
inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is
switched on;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to min-
imize the potential for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place, switch off your phone immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your operator or service provider.
Other Medical Devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, in-
cluding cellular phones, may interfere with the func-
tionality 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 ener-
gy.
