Care and safety information

Safety

Use of your phone is subject to safety measures designed to protect users and their environment.

Do not use your phone in damp areas (bathroom, swimming pool…). Protect it from liquids and other moisture. Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures from - 10°C to + 55°C.

The physicochemical processes created by chargers impose temperature limits when charging the battery. Your phone automatically protects the batteries in extreme temperatures.

Do not leave your phone within the reach of small children (certain removable parts may be accidentally ingested).

Electrical safety

Only use the chargers listed in the manufacturer’s catalogue. Using any other charger may be dangerous; it would also invalidate your warranty. Line voltage must be exactly the one indicated on the charger’s serial plate.

Aircraft safety

When travelling by plane, you will need to switch your phone off when so instructed by the cabin crew or the warning signs. Using a mobile phone may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may disrupt the phone network.

Its use is illegal and you could be prosecuted or banned from using cellular networks in the future if you do not abide by these regulations.

Explosive materials

Please comply with warning signs at petrol station asking you to switch your phone off. You will need to comply with radio equipment usage restrictions in places such as chemical plants, fuel depots and at any location where blasting operations are under way.

Electronic medical equipment

Your phone is a radio transmitter which may interfere with electronic medical equipment or implants, such as hearing aids, pacemakers, insulin pumps, etc. It is recommended that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between the phone and an implant. Your doctor or the manufacturers of such equipment will be able to give you any advice you may need in this area.

Hospitals

Always make sure that your phone is switched off in hospitals when so instructed by warning signs or by medical staff.

Road safety

Except in emergencies, do not use your phone when driving unless you have a hands-free kit enabling you to manoeuvre freely. In order to give your full attention to driving, stop and park safely before making a call. You must comply with any current legislation.

Ensure that no part of your body is permanently close to the aerial unless there is a metal screen (e.g.: a vehicle roof…).
