Safety precautions

Using a mobile phone while driving may be prohibited.

Please check local laws and regulations with regard to the prohibition of mobile phone use while driving, and comply with them.

Use of your phone while you are driving may disturb your concentration and so cause an accident. Always switch your phone off to drive safely. You should use your phone in an emergency, either use a hands free device built into your car or pull over in a safe place first.

Switch off in restricted areas

Always switch your phone off in areas where mobile phone use is restricted.

Switch off in explosive or dangerous areas

Always switch your phone off in areas with explosive or dangerous materials (such as fuels, fuel stations or areas containing chemical goods) and obey any instructions or signals. Do not remove your mobile phone’s battery in such areas.

Switch off in aircraft

Always switch your phone off or select Flight Mode (press the Menu

>Settings > Profiles > Flight Mode) when you are in an aircraft. The electromagnetic waves emitted by your phone may affect the electronic navigation equipment in the aircraft.

Switch off in hospitals and near medical equipment

Always switch your phone off in hospitals, and obey the regulations or rules of the hospital.

Switch your phone off when using medical equipment for private purposes, if possible. Always consult with the medical equipment’s manufacturer or an expert regarding phone use near the medical equipment.

Installing a hands free device in your vehicle

Install vehicle hands free devices away from the steering wheel and airbag expansion area, otherwise injury may result.

Mobile phones and other electronic devices

Mobile phones emit electromagnetic waves that may affect nearby electronic devices. When it is switched on, do not place your phone close to delicate electronic equipment.

About the battery usage

Your phone is powered by a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. This means that, unlike other forms of battery technology, you can recharge your battery while some charge remains without reducing your phone’s autonomy due to the“battery memory effect”inherent in those technologies.

Do not use a damaged battery or charger.

Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred.

Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.

Do not put your battery into contact with conductive objects.

Dispose of and recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Do not dispose of batteries by burning; they may explode.

Do not use an unauthorized charger.

Only use the battery for the device for which it is specified.

Only use the battery with a charging device that has been qualified with the device per this standard. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.

Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals.

Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified with the device per this standard, IEEE-Std-1725-2006. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.

Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations

Battery usage by children should be supervised.

Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.

Use your battery for the specified purpose only.

The closer you are to your network’s base station, the longer your phone usage time because less battery power is consumed for the connection.

– The battery recharging time varies depending on the remaining battery

01

capacity and the battery and charger type you use.

02

– Battery life inevitably shortens over time.

– Use an authorized battery and charger only.

03

– Since overcharging may shorten battery life, remove the phone from

04

its charger once it is fully charged. Unplug the charger, once charging

is complete. Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, especially inside

05

a car in summer or winter, may reduce the capacity and life of the

battery. Always keep the battery within normal temperatures.

06

– To prevent injury or burns, ensure that no metal objects come into

07

contact with the + and – terminals of the battery.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)

08

 

Regulations for Wireless Devices

On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities.
