Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Power off your device in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and comply with all signs and instructions. Areas that may have potentially explosive atmospheres include the areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Triggering of sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or a fire, resulting in bodily injuries or even deaths. Do not power on your device at refueling points such as service stations. Comply with restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas, and chemical plants. In addition, adhere to restrictions in areas where blasting operations are in progress. Before using the device, watch out for areas that have potentially explosive atmospheres that are often, but not always, clearly marked. Such locations include areas below the deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Ask the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) whether this device can be safely used in their vicinity.

Traffic Security

Observe local laws and regulations while using the device. In addition, if using the device while driving a vehicle, comply with the following guidelines:
• Concentrate on driving. Your first responsibility is to drive
safely.
• Do not talk on the device while driving
. Use hands-free
accessories.
• When you have to make or answer a call, park the vehicle at
the
road side before using your device.
• RF signals may affect electronic systems of
motor vehicles.
For more information, consult the vehicle manufacturer.
• In a motor vehicle, do not place the d
evice over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Otherwise, the device may hurt you owing to the strong force when the air bag inflates.
• Do not use your device while flying in an aircraft. Power off your device before bo
arding an aircraft. Using wireless devices in an aircraft may cause danger to the operation of the aircraft and disrupt the wireless telephone network. It may also be considered illegal.

Operating Environment

• Do not use or charge the device in dusty, damp, and dirty places or places with magnetic fields. Otherwise, it may result in a malfunction of the circuit.
• The device complies with the RF
specifications when the device is used near your ear or at a distance of 1.5 cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories such as a device case and a device holster are not composed of metal components. Keep your device 1.5 cm away from your body to meet the requirement earlier mentioned.
• On a stormy day with thunder, do not use your device when it being cha
is
rged, to prevent any danger caused by lightning.
• When you are on a call, do not touch the antenna. Touching
the
antenna affects the call quality and results in increase in power consumption. As a result, the talk time and the standby time are reduced.
• While using the device, observe the local laws and regulations, and respect
others' privacy and legal rights.
• Keep the ambient temperature between –10°C and 45°C while the device
is being charged. Keep the ambient temperature between –10°C to 55°C for using the device powered by a battery.

Certification Information (SAR)

This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by international guidelines, the device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to ensure safety for all users, regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be well below the value. This is because the device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.
The SAR limit adopted by USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/ kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC and IC for this device type when
