IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Traffic Safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a vehicle. Always secure the
phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where it can
break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always
switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause
interference or danger.
Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.
Parts of the phone are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the
phone, and persons with a hearing aid should not hold the phone to the ear with
the hearing aid. Always secure the phone in its holder, because metallic materials
may be attracted by the earpiece. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic
storage media near the phone, because information stored on them may be
erased.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 20 cm (6
inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 20 cm (6 inches) from their
pacemaker when the phone is switched on;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for
interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off
your phone immediately.
