Safety Warnings
Read the following safety warnings carefully before
using your smartphone.
• This equipment is intended for use with
power supplied from supplied battery
charger(s) and/or power supply unit(s). Other
usage will invalidate any certification given
to this product and may be dangerous.
• Switch off your cell phone when in an
aircraft. The use of cell phones in an aircraft
may be dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft, could disrupt cellular networks, and
may be illegal. Failure to observe this
instruction may lead to suspension or denial
of cell phone services to the offender, legal
action, or both.
• Do not use the cell phone or cell phone
equipment when at a refueling point or gas
station.
8
• Observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, gas stations,
chemical plants, or where blasting
operations are in progress.
• When driving a vehicle, you MUST exercise
proper control of the vehicle at all times.
Observe the following safety precautions
when driving:
– Do not use a hand-held telephone or
microphone while you are driving.
– When driving, find a safe place to stop
the vehicle before using the phone.
– Do not speak into a hands-free

driving.
Before You Use Your Smartphone

shoulder of a motorway to answer or
make a call, except in an emergency.
NOTE: In some areas where electric current
is known to fluctuate, it is recommended that
you plug the charger to an AVR (AC Voltage
Regulator) instead of a direct connection to
a power outlet. Fluctuations in the electric
current may damage the charger and/or the
device.
General Statement on RF Energy
Your phone has a transmitter and a receiver. When
the phone is on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) energy. When you communicate
with your phone, the system handling your call
controls the power level at which your phone
transmits RF energy.
Proper Disposal

indicates that the product
(electrical and electronic
equipment) should not be placed
in municipal waste. Please check
local regulations for disposal of
electronic products.
