SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The unit and the accessories can contain small parts. Keep all of the equipment out of the reach of small children. The AC power adapter is the disconnect device between the product and AC power. The AC power outlet must be close to the equipment and easily accessible.

Network services and costs
Your device is approved for use on the WCDMA 850/1900 MHz, GSM 850/1800/1900 MHz networks. To use the device, you need a subscription with a service provider.

Using network services may result in trafic costs. Some product features require support from the network, and you may need to subscribe to them.

Operating environment
Follow the rules and laws that apply wherever you are, and always turn off the unit whenever its use is prohibited or can cause interference or hazards. Only use the unit in its normal user position.

This unit complies with guidelines for radiation when it is used either in a normal position against your ear, or when it is at least 0.6 in from your body. If the unit is carried close to your body in a case, belt holder or other holder, these holders should not contain any metal, and the product should be placed at the distance from your body speciied above. Make sure that the distance instructions above are followed until the transfer is complete.

Parts of the unit are magnetic. The unit can attract metal objects. Do not keep credit cards or other magnetic media near the unit. There is a risk that information stored on them can be erased.

Medical units
The use of equipment that transmits radio signals, for example, mobile phones, can interfere with insuficiently protected medical equipment. Consult a doctor or the manufacturer of the equipment to determine if it has adequate protection against external radio signals, or if you have any questions.

Comply with any notices at health care facilities instructing you to turn off the unit while you are there. Hospitals and other health care facilities sometimes use equipment that can be sensitive to external radio signals.

Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers:

• Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when the phone is turned on.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the phone off immediately.

Areas with explosion risk
Always turn off the unit when you are in an area where there is a risk of explosion, typically these are areas where you normally requested to turn off your car engine. Follow all signs and instructions.

In these areas, sparks can cause explosion or ire that can lead to personal injury or even death.

Turn off the unit at illing stations, and any other place that has gas pumps and auto repair facilities.

Follow the restrictions that apply to the use of radio equipment near places where fuel is stored and sold, chemical factories and places where blasting is in progress.

Areas with risk for explosion are often – but not always – clearly marked. This also applies to below decks on ships; the transport or storage of chemicals; vehicles that use liquid fuel (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powder.

Protect your hearing

Excessive exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing damage. Exposure to loud sounds while driving may distract your attention and cause an accident.
Listen to a headset at a moderate level, and do not hold the device near your ear when the loudspeaker is in use.

Emergency calls

Mobile phones such as this unit use radio signals, the mobile phone network, the terrestrial network and user-programmed functions. This means that connection cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances. Therefore, you should never rely solely on a mobile phone for very important calls such as medical emergencies.

Vehicles
Radio signals can affect electronic systems in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel injection, ABS brakes, automatic cruise control, air bag systems) that have been incorrectly installed or are inadequately protected. Contact the manufacturer or its representative for more information about your vehicle or any additional equipment.

Do not keep or transport lammable liquids, gases or explosives together with the unit or its accessories. For vehicles equipped with air bags: Remember that air bags ill with air with considerable force.

Do not place objects, including ixed or portable radio equipment in the area above the airbag or the area where it might expand. Serious injuries may be caused if the mobile phone equipment is incorrectly installed and the airbag ills with air.

It is prohibited to use the unit while in light. Turn off the unit before you board a plane. Using wireless telecom units inside a plane can pose risks to air safety and interfere with telecommunications. It may also be illegal.

Driving safely
Adapted from CTIA-The Wireless Association®

Use of this unit alone or with headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle is dangerous and is illegal in some areas, and the user should not engage in such conduct. Driving while operating a mobile phone is distracting and could cause serious injury or death.

If you use this unit while driving or riding a bicycle, keep in mind the following guidelines:

• Give full attention to driving and to the road.
  Using a mobile device while driving may be distracting. If you ind it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle, riding a bicycle, or performing any activity that requires your full attention, pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.
• Get to know your phone and its features such as phone book, call memory, and speakerphone.
  These features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road. See the applicable portion of this user's guide for more information.
• Use a hands-free device.
  Add an extra layer of convenience and safety to your unit with one of the many hands-free accessories available.
  Use of a headset or other hands-free device may be legally required. Several states have in recent years passed laws making it unlawful to operate a motor vehicle while talking on a wireless phone without use of a headset, speakerphone, or other hands-free device. County and municipal ordinances may also limit or ban wireless conversations for automobile drivers. Check the status of such laws in your area and in locations to which you travel by car. For SMS text messaging, it is a recommended safety practice that you never send or view received text messages while driving; in California, and likely other states in the future, SMS messaging by a driver is also a legal violation.
• Position phone within easy reach.
  Keep your eyes on the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
• Assess the trafic before dialing, or place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into trafic.
  Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. Never dial, send SMS text messages, or enter other text while you are driving.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving.
  If necessary, suspend the call in heavy trafic or hazardous weather conditions. Driving in rain, sleet, snow, ice, fog, and even heavy trafic can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes, look up phone numbers, or perform any other activities that require your attention while driving.
  Jotting down a to-do list or lipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
  Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

Your unit is a technically advanced product and should be treated with the greatest care. Negligence may void the warranty.
