Page 5: Safety And Precautions
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before use. CONDITIONS OF USE Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft. Use could lead to legal action against the user. Switch the phone off when in health care facilities except in areas specified. Like many other types of equipment now in regular use, mobile telephones can interfere with other electric or electronic devices. - Page 6 CONDITIONS OF USE FOR BATTERIES: Only use batteries, battery chargers and accessories approved by the manufacturer. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage caused by use of other batteries, chargers or accessories. Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the phone is switched off.

Page 7: Traffic Safety
TRAFFIC SAFETY: Remember to always check whether local legislation allows operation of a mobile phone while driving a vehicle. It is vital to connect the phone to an external antenna when it is used in a vehicle. Electromagnetic waves may otherwise interfere with the vehicle electronics. - Page 8 Several expert groups belonging to or having been appointed by official national or international bodies have analysed all the existing publications and, to date, have concluded that there is a lack of evidence as to any credible or convincing hazardous effects of mobile phones on health. These studies have, in particular, focused on the fact that mobile handsets receive and emit electromagnetic waves via their antenna.
