periods of time.

SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT

Due to the possible interference caused

by this product to an aircraft’s navigation

system and its communications

network, using this device’s phone

function on board an airplane is

against the law in most countries. If

Important Customer Information

you want to use this device when its

use is restricted on board an aircraft,

remember to switch to Airplane Mode

which turns off RF functions that could

cause interference.

ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS

Do not use this product in gas stations,

fuel depots, chemical plants or where

blasting operations are in progress, or

in potentially explosive atmospheres

such as fueling areas, fuel storehouses,

below deck on boats, chemical plants,

fuel or chemical transfer or storage

facilities, and areas where the air

contains chemicals or particles, such as

grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be

aware that sparks in such areas could

cause an explosion or ﬁre resulting in

bodily injury or even death.

EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

When in any area with a potentially

explosive atmosphere or where

ﬂammable materials exist, the product

should be turned off and the user

should obey all signs and instructions.

Sparks in such areas could cause an

Important Customer Information

explosion or ﬁre resulting in bodily

injury or even death. Users are advised

not to use the equipment at refueling

points such as service or gas stations,

and are reminded of the need to

observe restrictions on the use of radio

equipment in fuel depots, chemical

plants, or where blasting operations

are in progress. Areas with a potentially

explosive atmosphere are often, but not

always, clearly marked. These include

fueling areas, 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.

ROAD SAFETY

Vehicle drivers in motion are not

permitted to use communication

services with handheld devices, except

in the case of emergency. In some

countries, using hands-free devices as

an alternative is allowed.

Important Customer Information

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 prohibited in most

hospitals and medical clinics.

If you use any personal medical

device(s), consult the manufacturer

of your device(s) to determine if the

device(s) are adequately shielded from

Important Customer Information

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.

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 the customer service line to discuss

alternatives.

NON-IONIZING RADIATION

Your device has an internal antenna.

This product should be operated in

its normal-use position to ensure the

radiative performance and safety from

interference. As with other mobile

radio transmitting equipment, users are

advised that for satisfactory operation of

the equipment and for personal safety,

it is recommended that no part of the

Important Customer Information

human body be allowed to come too

close to the antenna during operation

of the equipment.

Use only the supplied

internal

antenna. Use of unauthorized or

modiﬁed antennas may impair call quality

and damage the phone, causing loss of

performance and SAR levels exceeding

the recommended limits as well as result

in non-compliance with local regulatory

requirements in your country.

To assure

optimal phone performance and ensure

human exposure to RF energy is within

the guidelines set forth in the relevant

standards, always use your device

only in its normal-use position. Contact

with the antenna area may impair call

quality and cause your device to operate

at a higher power level than needed.

Avoiding contact with the antenna area

when the phone is IN USE optimizes

the antenna performance and the

battery life.

HAC

This phone has been tested and rated

for use with hearing aids for some of

the wireless technologies that it uses.

However, there may be some newer

Important Customer Information

wireless technologies used in this phone

that have not been tested yet for use

with hearing aids. It is important to try

the different features of this phone

thoroughly and in different locations,

using your hearing aid or cochlear

implant, to determine if you hear any

interfering noise. Consult your service

provider or the manufacturer of this

phone for information on hearing aid

compatibility. If you have questions about

return or exchange policies, consult your

service provider or phone retailer.

FCC RF Exposure Information

WARNING!

Read this information before operating

the phone.

In August 1996, the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC)

of the United States, with its action

in Report and Order FCC 96-326,

adopted an updated safety standard for

human exposure to Radio Frequency

(RF) electromagnetic energy emitted

by FCC regulated transmitters. Those

guidelines are consistent with the safety

standard previously set by both U.S.

and international standards bodies. The

design of this phone complies with the

Important Customer Information

FCC guidelines and those international

standards.

Bodily Contact During Operation

This device was tested for typical

use with the back of the phone kept

0.39 inches (1.0 cm) from the body.

To comply with FCC RF exposure

requirements, a minimum separation

distance of 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) must

be maintained between the user’s body

and the back of the phone.

Third-party belt-clips, holsters,

and similar accessories containing

metallic components should not be

used. Avoid the use of accessories that

cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1.0 cm)

distance between the user’s body and

the back of the phone and have not

been tested for compliance with FCC

RF exposure limits.

Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna

(Optional, if available.)

To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements,

keep 8 inches (20 cm) between the user

/ bystander and vehicle-mounted external

antenna. For more information about RF

exposure, visit the FCC website at www.

fcc.gov.

Important Customer Information

Important Customer Information

Part 15.105 statement

This equipment has been tested and

found to comply with the limits for

a class B digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits

are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference

in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if

not installed and used in accordance

with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications.

that interference will not occur in a

particular installation. If you experience

interference with reception (e.g.,

television), determine if this equipment

is causing the harmful interference by

turning the equipment off and then

back on to see if the interference is

affected. If necessary, try correcting

the interference by one or more of the

following measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving

antenna.

- Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet

Important Customer Information

on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.
