Body-worn operation: Important safety information regarding radio frequency (RF) radiation
exposure: To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a
minimum of 1.5 cm (0.6 in.) separation from the body. Failure to observe these instructions
could result in your RF exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields: For individuals concerned about limiting
their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides the following
advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might
choose to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using
'hands-free' devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.

WHO Fact sheet 193: June 2000.
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery's performance.
Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching
fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or
inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing
standards. Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Carrier Stores or
through your device's manufacturer. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way
to ensure they are genuine and safe.
• In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 0° C to
45° C.
• Don't use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the
bathroom.
• Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
• Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
• Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
• The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
• It's best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be
recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
• Don't store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It's best to follow
these storage rules:
• Less than one month: -20° C to 60° C
• More than one month: -20° C to 45° C
