Safety Precautions
The following are regulations and instructions concerning the safety
of the phone user and of third parties. Please read these points
carefully before using the phone. The manufacturer will not be
responsible for any damage caused by non-observance of the User
Guide and/or safety precautions.
• Do not switch on or use the phone at petrol stations or other sites
with highly flammable fumes, as this could cause the gases to ignite
or result in device damage, faults or a fire.
• Never operate the phone in an aircraft. Always switch it off before
boarding. Its use may be hazardous to the aircraft’s normal operation
and may interfere with the airport’s mobile radio networks. Failure to
comply may result in prosecution.
• Do not use the phone in hospitals, as the antenna’s electromagnetic
radiation may cause disturbances to medical equipment’s normal
operation.
• If you wear devices such as a pacemaker or hearing aids, we
recommend that you keep a safe distance from the antenna. The
antenna’s radiation may cause disturbances to their normal
operation.
• Before making a call, fully extend the antenna. Do not touch or hold it
during a call.
• We recommend the installation in a vehicle of the Hands Free Kit,
which provides a safer alternative to holding and using the phone
while driving. The Kit includes a handset cradle which allows for
handsfree speech.
• Never expose the phone to high levels of moisture (e.g. rain, water
jets...).
• This phone is only intended for use with approved accessories. Use
of other such accessories may be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty or liability claims.
• Mobile phones may interfere with other electronic equipment’s such
as TV-sets, radios, computers/PCs, when used in their immediate
surroundings.
