More safety information
Personal medical devices
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac pace-
makers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid plac-
ing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, for example. in
your breast pocket. When using the mobile phone, place it
at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance
of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between the mobile phone and
the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you
have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
immediately turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardi-
ologist for more information. For other medical devices,
please consult your physician and the manufacturer of the
device.
Comply with instructions to switch off the device or deacti-
vate the RF transmitter function when asked to do so, espe-
cially when posted in hospitals and aeroplanes. Equipment
used in these places may be sensitive to radio waves emit-
ted from the device and adversely affect their operation.
Likewise, observe restrictions at gas stations or other areas
with flammable atmosphere or when close to electro-explo-
sive devices.
Child safety
Do not allow children to play with your mobile phone or its
accessories. Keep it out of their reach. They could hurt
themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the
mobile phone or accessories. Your mobile phone and its
accessories may contain small parts, which could be
detached and create a choking hazard.
Emergency calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you
should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essen-
tial communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all cel-
lular networks, or when certain network services and/or
mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local
service provider.
SAR certification
When communicating over the wireless network, the mobile
phone emits low radio waves known as radio frequency
energy or RF. The Specific Absorption Rate or SAR is the
unit used to measure the amount of RF energy absorbed by
the body while using the phone and is expressed in watts/
kilogram. In compliance with the product standards in EN
50360:2001, the allowed limit of SAR averaged for 10g tis-
sue is 2.0 (W/kg).
