small children.
Small parts such as the SIM
card, dust cap, lens ring and
lens cap can be dis mantled and
swallowed by small children.
Do not place the phone near to
electromagnetic data carriers
such as credit cards and floppy
disks. Information stored on
them could be lost.
• Only use original batteries
and charging devices.
Otherwise you risk serious
damage to health and
property. The battery could
explode, for instance.
• All batteries can cause
property damage, injury or
burns if a conductive

placing it inside your pocket,
purse or other container with
metal objects. Your batteries
are supplied with a prot ective
cover. Please attach this

Care and maintenance
Your phone has b een designed and
manufactured to the highest of standards
and should be treated with great care. The
suggestions below will help you to enjoy
your phone for many years.
• Protect your phone from moisture and
humidity. Precipitation, humidity and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits. Should your phone
become wet, disconnect it immediately
from the power supply to avoid electric
shock. Do not place your phone (even to
dry it) on/in a source of heat such as a
microwave oven, oven or radiator. The
phone may become overheated and
possibly explode.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty,
dirty areas. Its moving parts may be
damaged and the casing may become
deformed and discoloured.
• Do not store your phone in hot
environments (e.g. vehicle instrument
panel in the summer). H igh temperatures
can shorten the life of electronic devices,
damage batteries and warp or melt
certain plastics.
• Do not store your phone in cold
environments. When the phone warms
up again (to its normal ambient
temperature), moisture can form inside
the phone, which may damage electronic
circuit boards.
• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.
Rough handling can damage internal
circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
phone.
• The phone has better protection against
splashes, dust and knocks if the supplied
seals are used.
The suggestions given above apply equally
to your phone, battery, charger and all
accessories. If any of these parts is not
working properly, obtain fast and reliable
help at our service centres.
Battery quality statement
The capacity of your mobile phone battery
wi ll red uce e ach ti me it is ch arged /emp tied .
Storage at too high o r low temperatures will
also result in a gradual capacity loss. As a
result the operating time of your mobile
phone may be considerably reduced, even
after a full recharge of the battery.
Regardless of this, the battery has been
designed and manufactured so that it can be
recharged and used for six months after the
purchase of you mobile phone. After six
months, if the battery is clearly suffering
from loss of performance, we recommend
that you replace it. Please buy only original
batteries.
Display quality statement
For technological reasons, a few small dots
with differe nt colours may app ear in th e
display in exceptional cases.
Just remember that the appearance of
brighter or darker dots generally does not
mean that a fault has occurred.

contains no metal and that positions the
handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the
body. Use of other enhancements may not
ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory and are not holding the phone at
the ear, position the handset a minimum of
1.5 cm from your body when the phone is
switched on.

If you lose your phone or SIM card contact
your service provider immediately to
prevent misuse.
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televisio n reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and recei ver.
Connect the equipment into an out let on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the grantee
of this device could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
RF exposure warning
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with
provided instructions and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter. End-users and installers
must be provide with antenna installation instructions
and transmitter operating conditions for satisfying
RF exposure compliance.

INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE /
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL
GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It i s designed not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is
2 W/kg and was adopted into the European
Standard EN 50360 and into other national
standards. The CE mark demonstrates that
the EU requirements are met.
The highest SAR value for this device when
tested at the ear was 0.37 W/kg
mobile devices offer a range of functions,
they can be used in positions other than the
head, such as on the body. In this case, a
separation distance of 1.5 cm is required.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's
highest transmitting power, the actual SAR
of this device while operating is typically
below that indicated above. This is due to
automatic changes to the power level of the
1
. As
device to ensure it only uses the minimum
level required to reach the network.
The World Health Organization has stated
that present sc ientific information does n ot
indicate the need for any special
precautions for the use of mobile devices.
They note that if you nevertheless want to
reduce your exposure then you can d o so by
limiting the length of calls or using a
'hands-free' device to keep the mobile
phone away from the head and body.
Additional Information can be f ound on the
websites of the World Health Organization
(www.who.int/emf) or BenQ Mobile
(www.BenQMobile.com).

international guidelines for testing.
