Safety Information
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury or
burns if a conductive material, such as jewelry, keys or bead-
ed chains, touches exposed terminals. The material may
complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become
quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery,
particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse, or other
container with metal objects. To protect against a short cir-
cuit when the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries
are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover
for storing your batteries when not in use (see pages 16-17).
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular telephones
in the areas where you drive. Some jurisdictions prohibit
your using a cellular telephone while driving a vehicle. Even
if your jurisdiction does not have such a law, we strongly
suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use extreme caution
when operating the cellular telephone while the vehicle is in
motion. Always obey them. Also, when using the phone while
driving, please:
give full attention to driving,
use hands-free operation, if available, and
pull off the road and park before making or answering a
call if driving conditions so require.
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, RF energy from cellular telephones may affect
inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems
