Important Safety Information

This section contains important operational
and safety information that will help you
safely use your phone. Failure to read and
follow the information provided in this
section may result in serious bodily injury,
death, or property damage.

General Precautions

There are several simple guidelines to
operating your phone properly and
maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
To maximize performance, do not touch
the portions of your phone where the
internal antennas are located while
using the phone.
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
Avoid exposing your phone and
accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your
phone does get wet, immediately turn
the power off and remove the battery.
Do not expose your phone to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time
(such as on the dashboard of a car).
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is
a complex piece of equipment and can
be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting,
bending, or sitting on it.
Any changes or modifications to your
phone not expressly approved in this
document could void your warranty for
this equipment and void your authority
to operate this equipment.
Note: For the best care of your phone,
only Kyocera-authorized personnel
should service your phone and
accessories. Failure to do so may be
dangerous and void your warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of

and Access to Your Phone

Do Not Rely on Your Phone

for Emergency Calls

Mobile phones operate using radio signals,
which cannot guarantee connection in all
conditions. Therefore you should never rely
solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communication (e.g., medical
emergencies). Emergency calls may not be
possible on all cellular networks or when
certain network services or mobile phone
features are in use. Check with your local
service provider for details.

Using Your Phone While

Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or
operating the phone without a hands-free
device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Laws vary as to specific restrictions.
Remember that safety always comes first.
