Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Please read this information before using your mobile
phone.

Your mobile phone is a highly sophisticated electronic
device. To get the most out of your mobile phone, please
read this text about product care, and safe and efficient
use.

Product Care and Maintenance

Do not expose your product to liquid or moisture or to
humidity.

Do not expose your product to extreme high or low
temperatures.

Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, or
cigars, or to open flames etc.

Do not drop, throw or try to bend the product as rough
treatment could damage it.

f

Do not paint your product as the paint could obstruct

t

the earpiece, microphone or any moveable parts and

o

prevent normal use.

N

o

r

c

o

a

l

Do not attempt to disassemble your product. The
product does not contain consumer serviceable
components. Only Ericsson service partners should
perform service.

Do not use any accessories other than Ericsson originals.
Use of non-Ericsson original accessories may result in
loss of performance, damage to the product, fire, electric

–

shock or injury. The warranty does not cover product

e

failures which have been caused by use of non-Ericsson

s

u

original accessories.

Treat your product with care, keep it in a clean and
dust-free place.

Antenna Care

Your phone is equipped with either an internal or
external antenna. To avoid impaired performance, please
ensure that your mobile phone’s antenna is not damaged.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Do not remove the antenna yourself. If your mobile
phone’s antenna is damaged, please take the product to
an Ericsson service partner.

Only use an antenna that has been specifically designed
for your mobile phone. Use of unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the mobile
phone and may violate the appropriate regulations,
causing loss of performance and SAR levels above the
recommended limits (see below).

Efficient Use

For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption please:

• Hold the mobile phone as you would any other
telephone. While speaking directly into the
mouthpiece, angle the antenna in a direction up and
over your shoulder.

• Do not touch the antenna when the mobile phone is
in use. Touching the antenna affects call quality, may

f

cause the mobile phone to operate at a higher power

t

level than needed and may shorten talk and standby

o

times.

N

r

c

• Do not use the product when the front and/or back
cover is removed from the unit.

• If your mobile phone is equipped with an infrared
eye, never direct the infrared ray at anyone’s eye and
make sure that it does not disturb any other infrared
units.

• If your mobile phone is equipped with a retractable
antenna, Ericsson recommends that the antenna be
kept fully retracted (closed) while the phone is in use
and worn on the body to avoid the antenna

e

touching, or coming in close proximity to, the body.

s

l

Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure

a

i

and SAR

Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and
receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio
frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio
frequency fields).

Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed
by scientific organizations*, e.g. ICNIRP (International

–

r

E

s

s

c

i

o

n

.

c

n

I

Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection),
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of
radio wave exposure for the general population. All
Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to operate
within these stringent levels. The levels include a safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health, and to account for any
variations in measurements.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. The
SAR value is determined at the highest certified power
level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of
the phone while operating can be well below this value.

This is because the phone is designed to use the
minimum power required to reach the network.
Therefore, the closer you are to a base station, the more
likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease.

Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure
guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety.
While there may be differences in SAR levels among

f

mobile phone models, all mobile phone models must be

t

designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.

Human Exposure) Standard 1999, Australian
Communications Authority (ACA), May 1999.

Driving

Please check if local laws and/or regulations, in the
country/state where you are, restrict the use of mobile
phones while driving.

Law in many countries/states requires drivers to use a
Hands Free solution. If so, it is recommended that you
use Ericsson Hands Free solutions only with this Ericsson
mobile phone model.

Ericsson is concerned about your safety. Always give full
attention to driving and pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

RF energy may affect some electronic systems in motor
vehicles such as car stereo, safety equipment etc. In
addition, some vehicle manufacturers do not allow use of
mobile phones in their vehicles, unless a Hands Free kit
with an external antenna supports the installation. Check
with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure

o

f

t

o

r

c

that your mobile phone will not affect the electronic
systems in your vehicle.

Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects,
including either installed or portable wireless equipment,
in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly
installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

e

Electronic Devices

s

u

l

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF

a

i

signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against the RF signals from your mobile
phone, therefore:

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”)
inches (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations

–

E

r

c

i

s

s

o

n

.

c

n

I

are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;

• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to

minimize the potential for interference.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider or call your local
Ericsson Certified Call Center to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are

f

adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

t

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this

o

information.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

• 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.

• Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted
notices so require.

E

Aircraft

s

u

–

e

• Turn off your mobile phone before boarding any
aircraft.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Blasting Areas

Turn off your mobile phone when in a blasting area or in
areas posted “turn off two-way radio” to avoid interfering
with blasting operations. Construction crews often use
remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

Explosive Atmospheres

Turn off your mobile phone when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your
mobile phone or its accessories could generate sparks.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often,
but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling
areas, such as petrol stations, below deck 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.

Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or
explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle that
contains your mobile phone and accessories.

Power Supply

Connect the AC power adapter only to designated power
sources as marked on the product.

To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it
from the outlet by holding onto the AC adapter rather
than the cord.

Make sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be
stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.

To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the unit from

u

any power source before attempting to clean it.

l

a

i

The AC power adapter must not be used outdoors or in
damp areas.

DANGER - Never alter the AC cord or plug. If the plug
will not fit into the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. Improper connection can result
in risk of electric chock.

Emergency Calls

IMPORTANT!

This mobile phone, like any mobile phone, operates
using radio signals, cellular and landline networks as well
as user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection under all conditions. Therefore you should
never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communications (e.g. medical emergencies).

e

Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the mobile

s

phone must be switched on and in a service area with

u

l

adequate cellular signal strength. Emergency calls may
not be possible on all cellular phone networks or when
certain network services and/or mobile phone features
are in use. Check with your local service provider.

Battery Information

are charging a new battery, or a battery that has run out
completely, it may take a while (up to 30 minutes) before
you get any indication (the battery meter appears in the
display) that the battery is being charged.

Please note that you cannot turn on the phone before the
indicator lights up and the battery meter appears in the
display.

The battery can only be charged in temperatures between
+5°C (+41°F) and +45°C (+113°F).

Battery Use and Care

A rechargeable battery has a long service life if treated
properly. A new battery or one that has not been used for
a long time could have reduced capacity the first few
times it is used.

The talk and standby times depend on the actual
transmission conditions when using the phone. If the
phone is used near a base station, less power is required
and talk and standby times are prolonged.

o

r

c

Use only Ericsson original batteries and chargers. Using
other batteries and chargers could be dangerous, and the
warranty does not cover product failures which have been
caused by use of non-Ericsson original batteries and
chargers.
