The mobile telephone has been manufac- tured in accordance with all of the applica- ble RF safety standards and recommenda- tions determined by the government offices and organisations responsible (e.g. the VDE standard
General information
The telephone function of your Radiophone is based on the GSM radio telephone stand- ard. This standard was developed for use in Europe and many other countries.
Using the mobile Radiophone, you can make the same telephone calls as you can with a cellular phone.
This assumes that the GSM radio network is available at your location and that you have access privileges and a valid SIM card. This SIM card must be inserted into the unit (if necessary, refer to the information in the section on “KeyCard and SIM card”).
Effects of radio frequency energy
Your Radiophone is both a transmitter and a receiver. It generates minimum amounts of energy in the radio frequency range. While it is in use, the GSM system keeps a con- stant check on both the frequency and the power.
Warnings that using mobile telephones may be hazardous to your health have recently been a topic of public discussion. For years now, research on the effects of radio fre- quency energy emitted by FM technology has concentrated on possible adverse ef- fects to your health. Scientists have also begun researching the latest radio technol- ogies such as GSM. According to the re- search results and by complying with the corresponding safety standards, it is safe to say that this product can be used without reservations.
When the Radiophone is installed properly in your vehicle, using it is even safer than using a portable cellular phone.
If you should still be concerned about the effects of radio frequency energy, there is a lot you can do personally to ensure that you are exposed to a minimum of these radio waves. Of course, it will help to reduce your call time to a minimum but it is especially important to heed the following tips on us- ing this equipment.
Safety information
Traffic safety
Traffic safety always has the highest priori- ty. As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your responsibility to pay attention to the traffic situation at all times. Never use your car radio in a way that could distract you.
Please keep in mind that you travel a dis- tance of 14 m per second at a speed of only 50 km/h.
Should the traffic situation become particu- larly demanding, we advise you not to use the radio.
Always make sure that you are still able to hear any warning signals coming from out- side of your vehicle, such as police or fire engine sirens, so that you can react accord- ingly.
Consequently, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car radio while you are driving.
Using the telephone while driving
Please observe all laws and regulations re- garding the use to mobile telephones in motor vehicles.
•Concentrate fully on your driving.
•Stop at a safe place before using the telephone.
