    Safety Information For your safety, please read the guidelines below carefully before you use your phone: Exposure to radio frequency signals Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. European and international agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.

    its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power lev- els so as to use only the poser required to reach the network.

  • Page 5: Electronic Devices

    Batteries All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The material may complete electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal objects.

    • If you have any reason to suspect that the interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interfer- ence you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. Other medical devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to deter- mine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.

  • Page 7: Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

    Potentially explosive atmospheres Turn your phone OFF and do not remove the battery when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks, from your battery, in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explo- sive atmosphere are often, but not always clearly marked.
