Safety Information

GENERAL STATEMENT ON RF ENERGY

The phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimised for best performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low. Under poor network conditions the phone transmits at a higher power, may get hot and have a shorter battery life.

Demagnetisation

To avoid the risk of demagnetisation, do not allow electronic devices or magnetic media close to your phone for a long time.

Do not place your phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area as an airbag inflates with great force and serious injury could occur.

Place your phone safely before driving your vehicle.

Seizures/Blackouts

Your phone can produce a bright or flashing light. A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games or watching videos. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history of such occurrences, please consult a physician. To reduce the risk of blackouts or seizures, you can use your phone in a well-lit room and take frequent breaks.

Emergency Calls

This phone, like any other wireless phone, operates using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should not rely solely on any wireless phone for emergency communications.

Electrical Safety

Use only approved accessories.
Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories.
Take care not to touch metallic objects, such as coins or key rings, or allow them to contact or short-circuit the charging jack.
Never puncture the surface of the phone with sharp objects.

Radio Frequency Interference

General Statement on Interference

Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturers to determine if the operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical devices.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.

Hearing Aids

People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference depends on the type of the hearing device and the distance from the interference source. Increasing the separation between them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Medical Equipment

Switch off your wireless device when you are requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.

Aircraft

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft and enable flight mode of your phone when boarding an aircraft.

Interference in Vehicles

Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.

Explosive Environments

Gas Stations and Explosive Atmospheres

In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

This phone is designed for exclusive use on the Optus network. If you unlock and use this phone on alternate networks it might not have network coverage.
