Important information
Safety standards
The mobile telephone has been manufac- tured in accordance with all of the applica- ble radio frequency (RF) safety standards and recommendations determined by the government offices and organisations re- sponsible (e.g. the VDE standard DIN- 0848).
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 and has now spread throughout the world.
Using the mobile Radiophone, you can make the same telephone calls as you can with a cellular phone.
Important: You must be located in an area serviced by the GSM radio network and have the access privileges provided by a valid SIM card. This SIM card must be inserted into the unit (refer to the section on ”KeyCard and SIM card”if necessary).
Effects of RF (radio frequency) energy
Your Radiophone is both a transmitter and a receiver. It generates minimum amounts of energy in the RF range. While it is in use, the GSM system keeps a constant 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 efforts have concentrated on what effects RF energy may have on your health. Scientists have also begun research- ing the latest radio technologies such as GSM.
According to research results and by com- plying with the corresponding safety stand- ards, it is safe to say that GSM equipment can be used without reservations with re- spect to its biological effects.
If the Radiophone has been installed prop- erly in your vehicle, using it is even safer than using a portable cellular phone.
If you should still be concerned about the effects of RF energy, there is a lot you can do personally to ensure that you are ex- posed 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 using this equip- ment.
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 this equipment.
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 audio equipment while you are driving.
Using the telephone while driving
Please observe all laws and regulations re- garding the use of mobile telephones in mo- tor vehicles.
• Concentrate fully on your driving.
