General care

A phone contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets and battery systems. You should treat it with care and pay attention to the following:

• This phone is fitted with an internal battery that can only be replaced by a qualified service engineer. There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect battery type. Dispose of the used battery in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

• Do not allow the phone, battery or accessories to come into contact with liquids or moisture at any time. Do not immerse in liquid.

• Do not paint the phone.

• Do not drop, throw or subject the phone to rough treatment.

• Do not place the phone alongside computer disks, credit cards, travel cards and other magnetic media. The information contained on disks or cards may be affected by the phone.

• Do not leave the phone or the battery in places where the temperature could exceed 60 °C, e.g. on a car dashboard or a window sill, behind glass in direct sunlight, etc.

• Do not remove the battery while the phone is switched on.

• Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.

• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Dispose of Li-ION batteries at a Li-ION recycling point. For more specific battery and power supply information, see page 11 and

page 13.

• Do not put the battery in your mouth, as battery electrolytes may be toxic if swallowed.

• Do not attempt to dismantle the phone or any of its accessories.

• Do not put a battery into a microwave oven, dryer or high-pressure container.

• Do not let the battery come into direct contact with an electric outlet or cigarette lighter charger. Use only authorised charger units.

• Do not pierce the battery with a sharp object such as a needle.

• When the battery is thrown away, be sure it is nonconducting by applying vinyl tape to the (+) and (-) terminals.

PL-1 Important Safety Information

• Do not disassemble or modify the battery.

• Do not solder the battery directly.

• Stop using the battery if you detect any abnormalities, such as odour, discolouration or heat during use, charge or storage.

• Do not use the phone with a damaged or misshapen battery.

• In the unlikely event of a battery leak, take care to keep the battery discharge away from your eyes or skin. If the leakage does come into contact with the eyes or skin, please flush thoroughly in clean water and consult a doctor.

• Remove a worn out battery immediately.

• The handset itself may become warm when the handset is used for an extended period of time or when the video functions are used. Also, it may become warm while the battery is being charged.

• When a phone is set to Vibration mode, the vibration can sometimes cause your phone to move. Be careful not to place the phone near heat sources (such as a heater) or too close to the edge of the table.

• Use an anti-static cloth to clean the phone. Do not use an ordinary dry cloth or electrostatically charged cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the case.

• Remember to recycle the cardboard packaging supplied with this phone.

• Remember to make backup copies of all important data on your phone.

• Do not leave the battery pack empty or disconnected for a long time, otherwise some data may be initialised.

• Take care not to put your phone in your back pocket and then sit on it. Also, do not put your phone at the bottom of a bag where it may subject to excessive weight or pressure. Doing so may damage the LCD and camera lens and cause them to malfunction.

• Hold the phone away from your ear when you

- Play video/music on the Multimedia Player

- Play the ringtone through the speaker. It may damage, or irritate your ears.

Safety

The use of mobile phones is not allowed in some radiation-sensitive areas, such as hospitals, research centres and aircraft. Ensure that you switch off your phone in these areas. If in doubt, remove the battery.

Aircraft safety

Switch off your phone and remove its battery when inside or near an aircraft. The use of phones in aircraft is illegal. It may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and it may disrupt the mobile network. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of mobile network services to the offender or legal action or both.

Do not use the phone on the ground without the permission of the ground staff.

Hospital safety

Switch off your phone and remove its battery in areas where the use of phones is prohibited. Follow the instructions given by the respective medical centre regarding the use of mobile phones on their premises.

General safety

• Observe “Turn off mobile” signs, such as those near petrol stations, chemicals or explosives and switch off your phone.

• If you have a heart condition, be careful with the call vibration or tone volume settings.

• Do not allow children to play with the phone, charger or batteries.

• Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress.

PL-2 Important Safety Information

• The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be affected if you use a mobile phone next to them. Observe any warning signs and the manufacturer's recommendations.

• Your phone contains metal which may cause a skin irritation, a rash or eczema.

Road safety

• You MUST exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. Give your full attention to driving.

• Observe all local safety regulations regarding the use of mobile phones while driving.

• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.

• You MUST NOT stop on the hard shoulder of a motorway to answer or make a call, except in an emergency.

• Switch off your phone at a refuelling point, such as a petrol station, even if you are not refuelling your own car.

• Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as a radio transmitter.

• Electronic vehicle systems, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel injection systems are not normally affected by radio transmissions. The manufacturer of such equipment can advise if it is adequately shielded from radio transmissions. If you suspect vehicle problems caused by radio transmissions, consult your dealer and do not switch on the phone until it has been checked by qualified approved installers.

• Check if local laws and/or regulations restrict the use of phones while driving.

Vehicles equipped with an airbag

An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless

Important Safety Information PL-3

equipment is improperly installed and the airbag inflates, serious injury could result.

Third party equipment

The use of third party equipment, batteries, cables or accessories, not made or authorised by NEC, may invalidate the warranty of your phone and also adversely affect the phone's operation.

Service

The phone, batteries and charger contain no userserviceable parts. We recommend that your NEC phone is serviced or repaired by an NEC authorised service centre. Please NEC for advice.

Efficient use

The phone has an external antenna. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, please do not cover the external antenna area with your hand. Covering the external antenna affects call quality, may cause the phone to operate at higher power levels than needed and may shorten talk and standby times.

Radio frequency energy

Your phone is a low-power radio transmitter/receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the call controls the power level at which the phone transmits.

Exposure to radio frequency energy

• The phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to RF energy set by national authorities and international health agencies.* These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organisations such as ICNIRP

(International Commission on Non-ionizing Radiation Protection) through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health and to account for any variations in measurements.

• *Examples of radio frequency exposure guidelines and standards that the phone is designed to conform to:

• ICNIRP, Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)-International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Health Physics, vol.74. pp, 494-522, April 1998.

• 99/519/EC, EU Council Recommendation on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields 0 Hz-300 GHz. Official Journal of the European Communities, July 12, 1999.

• ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992. “Safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz”. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., New York, 1991.

• FCC Report and Order, ET Docket 93-62, FCC 96-326, Federal Communications Commission (FCC), August

1996.

• Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation Human Exposure) Standard 1999, Australian Communications Authority (ACA), May 1999.
