If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine
if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you
in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Nonionizing radiation
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position
to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio
transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for
the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too
close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair
call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the
recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in
your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the
guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position.
Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher
power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes
the antenna performance and the battery life.
