your handset

138
The operation of some medical
electronic devices, such as hearing
aids and pacemakers, may be affected
if a handset is used next to them.
Observe any warning signs and the
manufacturer's recommendations
Avoid damage to your
hearing
Damage to your hearing can occur
if you are exposed to loud sound for
long periods of time. We therefore
recommend that you do not turn on
or off the handset close to your ear. We
also recommend that music and call
volumes are set to a reasonable level.
If you are listening to music whilst
out and about, please ensure that the
volume is at a reasonable level so that
you are aware of your surroundings.
This is particularly imperative when
attempting to cross the street.
