Additional safety information
Small children
Your device and its accessories are not toys. They may contain small parts. Keep them
out of the reach of small children.
Operating environment
This device meets RF exposure guidelines in the normal use position at the ear or at least
2.2 centimeters (7/8 inch) away from the body. Any carry case, belt clip, or holder for
body-worn operation should not contain metal and should position the device the above-
stated distance from your body.
To send data files or messages requires a quality connection to the network. Data files
or messages may be delayed until such a connection is available. Follow the separation
distance instructions until the transmission is completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device. Do
not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because
information stored on them may be erased. Your device contains sensors that use
magnets. External magnets may affect the operation of the device.
Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may interfere
with the function of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the medical device to determine whether they are adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Switch off your device when regulations posted instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment sensitive to external RF
energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend a minimum separation of 15.3 centimeters
(6 inches) between a wireless device and an implanted medical device, such as a
pacemaker or implanted cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential interference with
the medical device. Persons who have such devices should:
Always keep the wireless device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the
•
medical device.
Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
•
Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical device.
•
Turn the wireless device off if there is any reason to suspect that interference is
•
taking place.
Follow the manufacturer directions for the implanted medical device.
•
If you have any questions about using your wireless device with an implanted medical
device, consult your health care provider.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids.
Your mobile device model complies with FCC rules governing hearing aid compatibility.
These require a M3 microphone or higher value. Your device M-value is shown on the box.
A higher M-value generally indicates that a device model has a lower RF emissions level,
which may improve the likelihood that the device will operate with certain hearing aids.
Some hearing aids are more immune than others to interference. Please consult your
hearing health professional to determine whether your hearing aid will work with this
device. More information on accessibility can be found at www.nokiaaccessibility.com.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection, electronic antilock braking, electronic
speed control, and air bag systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer
of your vehicle or its equipment.
Only qualified personnel should service the device or install the device in a vehicle. Faulty
installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate your warranty. Check
regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating
properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories. Remember that air bags inflate
with great force. Do not place your device or accessories in the air bag deployment area.
