1.3. Usage limitations
It is essential to turn off the telephone in the following
situations:
• Before boarding an aircraft or before packing it in your
luggage. The use of radio devices in aircraft can have
dangerous effects on the flight controls and interrupt
radio contact and is thus prohibited.
• In hospitals, clinics or other health centres and in any
locations in the direct vicinity of medical devices.
• In all locations where there is a risk of explosion (e.g.
petrol stations; in dust-filled environments, e.g. where
there is metal dust).
• In locations where the use of radio-controlled devices
is prohibited, e.g. on construction sites or locations
where people are working with explosives.
• While driving a motor vehicle (if no hands-free car kit
is available).

1.4. Additional costs for Internet
and roaming usage
Significant volume-based data costs may apply when
using the mobile Internet. In order to limit these costs, we
recommend that you purchase a contract with an Internet
flat rate.
PLEASE NOTE!
When the phone is used for the first
time, roaming is deactivated. Check
your mobile service tariff before
using the device and, if required,
switch off mobile data services
until you have activated a suitable
Internet flat rate.

2. Safety instructions
2.1. Making calls while driving
As making calls can reduce concentration
levels (while driving a car or riding a bicycle),
this may contribute to accidents occurring.
The following instructions should be
followed exactly.
It is an offence to hold a telephone in your
hand (or between your head and your
shoulder) to make a call while driving. It is
also illegal to write SMS, e-mail or use other
programs while driving. Failure to comply
will result in fines and in your name being
entered in the central traffic offenders
register.
The use of hands-free sets is allowed.
PLEASE NOTE!
A wired headset is not a handsfree set and may not be used while
driving.

WARNING!
Impairment to hearing!
Listening through earphones or
headphones at excessive volume
levels, as well as changes to the
basic settings of the equaliser,
drivers, software or operating
system generates excessive
acoustic pressure and can lead to
loss of hearing.
Before pressing play, set the
volume to the lowest setting.
Start playback and increase the
volume to a comfortable level.
Hands-free systems should
only be installed by suitably
qualified professionals. Incorrect
installation or maintenance can
have hazardous consequences and
may also void your guarantees –
also that of the car. Irradiation of
the car’s on-board electronics can
cause serious defects and result in
10 of 64
danger to life and limb for you and
others.
Do not use the mailbox while driving. Do
not listen to your messages until you have
parked the car and switched the motor
off.
If you accept a call via the hands-free set
while driving, keep the call as short as
possible. Concentrate on your driving. Try
to to find a parking area before making a
call.
Please comply with all national
regulations if you use your mobile while
driving abroad.
If you need to call often while driving, you
should have a hands-free system installed
in your car. These systems have been
specially developed for this purpose.
Ensure that neither your telephone nor
the hands-free system can interfere with
the functionality of the safety equipment
in your car.
11 of 64
For cars with airbags: Bear in mind that
the activation of the airbag involves
the release of a large amount of force.
Therefore, never install permanent
telephone equipment in the area above
the airbag or in the space occupied by the
deployed airbag.
If telephone or accessories are incorrectly
installed this can lead to serious injury
when the airbag is activated.
2.2. General
Do not let children play with electrical
appliances without supervision. Children
are not always aware of potential hazards.
CAUTION!
Risk of electrical shock!
There are live components inside
this AC adapter. In the event of
an unintentional short circuit of
this AC adapter, there is a risk of
electrical shock or fire!
12 of 64
Do not open the housing of the AC
adapter.
Do not insert anything into the device
through the slots and openings. This
could result in an electrical short-circuit,
an electric shock or even ignite a fire
which will damage the product.
Avoid exposing the device to water
droplets or spray and do not place vases
or anything containing water on the
device. Liquids penetrating the device
may impair the electrical safety of the
product.
Operate the mains charging device only
on earthed power outlets with AC 100–
240V~, 60Hz. If you are not sure about
the power supply at the set-up location,
please ask your power supplier.
The socket must be close to the device

For extra safety, we recommend using an
overvoltage protection device to prevent
the product from sustaining damage as a
result of power surges or lightning strikes.
If you want to disconnect the device from
the mains, first pull the mains charger

carried out in the reverse order. Always
take hold of the plug when disconnecting
the cable from the socket. Never pull on
the cable.
Position the cable so that it cannot be
stepped on or tripped over.
Do not place any objects on the cables to
avoid damaging them.

come under impact, e.g. from lateral
forces. This could cause internal and
external damage to the product.
Do not apply force when connecting
cables and plugs and make sure that
14 of 64
connectors are the right way round.
Do not crush or bend the cable too far in
order to prevent short-circuit and cable
break.
Maintain a distance of at least one
metre from sources of high-frequency
and magnetic interference (TV sets,
loudspeakers, mobile phones, DECT
telephones, etc.) in order to avoid
malfunctions and data loss.
Do not connect any devices to the
product which do not meet the
