Mobile phones may affect the operation of some implanted cardiac pacemakers and other medically implanted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be aware that the use of a mobile phone very close to a pacemaker might cause the device to malfunction. Avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, e.g., in your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6’’ inches) is kept between the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist for more information.

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy.

Turn your mobile phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.

AIRCRAFT

Turn off your mobile phone before boarding any aircraft.

To prevent interference with communication systems, you must not use your mobile phone while the plane is in the air.

Do not use it on the ground without permission from the crew.

BLASTING AREAS

Turn off your mobile phone when in a blasting area or in areas posted “turn off two-way radio” to avoid interfering with blasting operations. Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn off your mobile phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your mobile phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that contains your mobile phone and accessories.

POWER SUPPLY

Connect the AC power adapter only to designated power sources as marked on the product.

To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it from the outlet by holding onto the AC adapter rather than the cord.

T68i specifications

The Sony Ericsson T68i, launched in 2002, marked a significant milestone in mobile communication technology, blending functionality with a stylish design. This innovative mobile phone emerged during a time when mobile devices were beginning to shift towards more advanced features beyond mere voice calls and text messaging.

One of the standout features of the T68i was its color display, a groundbreaking development for its time. The phone boasted a 101 x 80 pixels LCD screen that could display up to 256 colors, providing users with a more vibrant and engaging interface compared to the monochrome screens that were prevalent before. This attractive visual upgrade was complemented by a light-responsive design, making it easier to view in various lighting conditions.

The T68i was equipped with a sturdy set of features including SMS and MMS capabilities. Users could send and receive multimedia messages alongside traditional text messages, paving the way for a more interactive communication experience. The phone also supported email functionality, allowing users to stay connected with work and personal contacts on the go.

Another notable technology integrated into the T68i was Bluetooth. As one of the first phones to include this technology, it enabled users to connect wirelessly to other devices such as headsets, allowing for hands-free communication. This was particularly important as it marked the beginning of a shift toward wireless peripherals that would eventually become standard in mobile technology.

The phone's design was sleek and compact, with a simple interface that provided easy navigation through its features. The presence of customizable themes allowed users to personalize their experience, making the T68i appealing to a diverse range of consumers.

In terms of battery life, the T68i was robust, providing a talk time of up to 7 hours and a standby time of up to 300 hours. This ensured that users could depend on their device for extended periods without the constant need for recharging.

Overall, the Sony Ericsson T68i was a pioneering device that encapsulated the transition into the modern era of mobile phones. With its combination of a color display, multimedia messaging capabilities, and wireless connectivity, the T68i played a key role in setting the stage for the smartphones that would follow in the years to come. Its legacy lives on as a testament to innovation in mobile technology.
