Do not allow children to use your mobile phone without supervision. Do not open or attempt to repair your mobile phone yourself.
To clean your mobile phone, use a soft rag or
Only use your telephone with Alcatel batteries, chargers and accessories compatible with your model (see page 82). The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage caused by the use of other chargers or batteries. Do not allow your phone to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (dampness, rain, infiltration, dust, sea air, etc.).The minimum and maximum temperatures recommended by the manufacturer are between
•BATTERY:
Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off. Observe the following precautions for battery use: do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns), do not puncture, disassemble or cause a
•CHARGERS
Mains powered chargers will operate within the temperature range: 0° to 40°. If the temperature of battery pack is out of the range, the handset will display “Temperature High” and not charge the battery for safety consideration.
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and office equipment use.They should be used for this purpose only.

•RADIO WAVES:
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all mobile phone models before they can be put on the market.The protection of the health and safety for the user and any other person is an essential requirement of these standards or this directive.
THIS MOBILE PHONE COMPLIES WITH INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN REQUIREMENTS REGARDING EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter/receiver. It was deigned and manufactured to comply with the radiofrequency (RF) exposure thresholds recommended by international requirements (ICNIRP) (1) and by the Council of the European Union (Recommendation 1999/519/EC) (2). These limits are part of a set of requirements and establish authorised radiofrequency levels for the public. These limits were established by groups of independent experts on the basis of regular and detailed scientific assessments.They include a significant safety margin intended to ensure the safety of all, regardless of age or state of health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones is determined by a measurement unit known as the Specific Absorption Rate or “SAR”. The SAR limit is set by international requirements or by the Council of the European Union at 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The tests used to determine SAR levels were carried out on the basis of standard usage modes with the phones transmitting at their maximum power level over the entire range of frequency bands. Although the SAR was established at the highest certified level, the actual SAR level for the phone during use is generally much lower than the maximum values. In fact, since mobiles are designed to operate at many different power levels, they only use the minimum level of power required to provide a connection to the network. In theory, the closer you are to a base station antenna, the lower the power level required by the mobile phone.
(1)The ICNIRP requirements are applicable in the following regions: Central America (except Mexico), South and North Africa, Pacific Asia (except Taiwan, Korea and Australia).
(2)The European recommendation (1999/519/EC) is applicable in the following regions: Europe, Eastern Europe, Israel.
