Important usage information

Handle SIM cards and memory cards with care

Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring or accessing information, as this could result in loss of data and/or damage to the card or phone.

Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical noise from other devices.

Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory cards.

Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth.

Ensure access to emergency services

Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible in some areas or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information

Your phone conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile phones that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts per kilogram of body tissue.

During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.692 watts per kilogram. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the phone has been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your phone reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.
