Precautions

Radio waves
Your cellular mobile phone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is
operating, it sends and receives radio waves. The radio waves carry your voice or data
signal to a base station that is connected to the telephone network. The network controls the
power at which the phone transmits.
• Your phone transmits/receives radio waves in the GSM frequency (900 /1800 / 1900 MHz).
• The GSM network controls transmission power (0.01 to 2 watts).
• Your phone complies with all relevant safety standards.
• The CE mark on your phone shows compliancy with European electromagnetic compatibility
(Ref. 89/336/EEC) and low voltage directives (Ref. 73/23/EEC).
Your cellular mobile phone is your responsibility. To avoid damage to yourself, to others or to
the phone itself, read and follow all the safety instructions and make them known to anyone
borrowing your phone.
Furthermore to prevent unauthorised use of your phone:
Keep your phone in a safe place and keep it out of small children's reach.
Avoid writing down your PIN code. Try to remember it instead.
Switch off the phone and remove the battery if you are going to leave it unused for a long time.
Use the Security menu to change the PIN code after purchasing the phone and to activate call
restriction options.
The design of your phone complies with all applicable laws and regulations. However your
phone may cause interference with other electronic devices. Consequently you should follow
all local recommendations and regulations when using your cellular phone both at
home and when away. Regulations on the use of cellular phones in vehicles and aircraft
are particularly stringent.
Public concern has been focused for some time on the possible health risks for users of
cellular phones. The current research on radio wave technology, including the GSM
technology, has been reviewed and safety standards have been drawn up to ensure protection
from exposure to radio wave energy. Your cellular telephone complies with all applicable
safety standards and the Radio Equipment and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment
Directive 1999/5/EC.
