28 Quick Start Guide
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example,
the steel frame of a building). Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources,
such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio. Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or
accessories that do not contain any metal. Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may
violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics. If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. 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.
INTERFERENCE IN CARS
