Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.

⬤For optional call performance, please do not obstruct the internal antenna.

⬤Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

⬤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.

Note:	For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should
	service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the
	warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE

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.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from Radio Frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
