Do not paint it. Paint can clog the device’s moving parts and prevent proper operation.

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the phone and may vi- olate regulations governing radio devices.

If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory are not working properly, take them to your nearest qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.

Important Safety

Information

Traffic Safety

Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a ve- hicle. If using a hand-held phone park the vehicle be- fore conversing. Always secure the phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.

The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle's lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.

Remember road safety always comes first!

Operating Environment

Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interfer- ence or danger.

When connecting the phone or any accessory to an- other device, read its Owner’s guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is rec- ommended that the equipment should only be used in the normal operating position (Held to your ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder.).

Do not point the infrared beam at anyone’s eye or al- low it to interfere with other infrared devices.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from ra- dio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a mini- mum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be maintained be- tween a hand-held wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Tech- nology Research.

Persons with pacemaker:

Should always keep the phone more than 20 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is switched on;

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to min- imize the potential for interference.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your phone immediately.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your operator or service provider.

Other Medical Devices

Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, in- cluding cellular phones, may interfere with the func- tionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions.

Switch off your phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF ener- gy.
