Safety precautions
This phone, like any wireless phone, oper-
ates using radio signals, wireless and land-
line networks, and user-programmed
functions. Because of this, connections in
all conditions cannot be guaranteed. There-
fore, you should never rely solely on any
wireless phone for essential communica-
tions (for example, medical emergencies).
Remember – to make or receive any calls,
the phone must be switched on and be used
in a service area that has adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls might not be pos-
sible on all wireless phone networks or
when certain network services or phone
features are in use. Check with local service
providers regarding their network features.
Always make certain that your phone is
properly charged before attempting any
emergency calls. If you allow your battery to
discharge, you will be unable to receive or
make calls, including emergency calls. You
must then wait a few minutes after the
charging begins to place any
emergency calls.
When making an emergency call, remember
to give all of the necessary information as ac-
curately as possible. Remember that your
wireless phone might be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident,
therefore you should not terminate the call
until given permission to do so.

Batteries and Chargers

Only use original batteries (100% mercury-
free) and charging devices. Use of non-orig-
inal batteries and/or charging devices may
cause explosion resulting in serious injury
and/or property damage. Use original ac-
cessories in order to avoid possible injury
and property damage and to ensure compli-
ance with applicable laws and regulations.
Improper use invalidates the warranty.
