Turn Off your phone when in a blasting area or areas posted: "Turn Off Two-Way Radio or Wireless Devices." Obey all signs and instructions. (See Flag.)

Turn Off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Do not remove, install, or change batteries in

such areas. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. (See Flag.)

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fuelling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or

chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such a propane or butane); areas where oxygen is used; areas where the air contains

chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turned Off your vehicle engine.

Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment

area. If wireless equipment is improperly installed in the vehicle and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

Battery Care and Disposal

Do not leave the phone or the battery in places where the temperature could exceed 140 °F, i.e., on a car dashboard, on a window sill, in direct sunlight, etc.

Do not allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings, to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.

Do not put your phone's battery in your mouth as battery electrolytes may be toxic, if swallowed.

Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected for a long period of time.

Do not dispose of battery packs in a fire.

Keep the battery away from children. It is not a toy and it could be a choking hazard.

Your phone battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts inside; do not attempt to open the battery covering.

Use only a battery approved by NEC for the NEC a232 wireless phone.

Using any battery pack or AC adapter not specified by NEC for use with the NEC a232 may be dangerous and may invalidate any approval given to the wireless phone. Do

not connect more than one charger at any time.

To ensure the maximum life from your battery, allow the battery to fully discharge at least once a week. To fully discharge the battery, leave the phone turned on until the

message "RECHARGE BATTERY" is displayed and the phone shuts itself Off. If left unused, a fully charged battery discharges in approximately one month. Store batteries

uncharged in a cool, dark, and dry place.

Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Contact your cellular carrier or check local laws and regulations.

WARNING: Do not swallow the battery. If you do accidentally swallow the battery, call 911 immediately.

Turn Off the phone and remove the battery

before you enter a hazardous area. The

wireless phone can be a hazard in these areas

even when set in vibrate mode, and the

scheduler or alarm can cause the phone to

power On.
