Safety first

Your new phone is a convenient and effective communications tool, but it can be hazardous when used improperly. To avoid harming yourself or anyone else, please review the following information before using your phone.

Batteries

Batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if the terminals are touched with a conductive material (for example, metal jewellery, keys, and so on). Therefore, use caution when handling a charged battery. Additional precautions and notes are listed below:

•Never throw a battery into a fire; it may explode.

•Fully recharge the battery if the battery is low or as soon as the low-battery alert beeps.

•Do not drop the battery.

•Do not allow bridging of battery contacts with metallic objects.

•Do not remove the battery from the phone while the phone is powered on. Settings you

have changed may revert to their previous settings.

A recyclable lithium ion/polymer battery powers your phone. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to recycle the battery.

Charging devices

Use only Genuine Panasonic charging accessories. Use of attachments not recommended by Panasonic or your Service Provider may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury. Panasonic is not responsible for damage caused by using non-Panasonic accessories.

•Do not expose charging adapters to moisture, water, or the weather.

•Do not use an adapter with a damaged cord.

•When using a DC adapter in an automobile, a small amount of electricity flows through the adapter, even if the phone is turned off. Remove the plug from the cigarette lighter whenever the phone will be left in the vehicle for long periods of time.

•Always charge the battery in a well ventilated area, not in direct sunlight, between 41°F (5°C) and 95°F (35°C). It is not possible to recharge the battery if it is outside this temperature range.

•Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery as ordinary trash. The battery must be

disposed of in accordance with local legislation and may be recycled.

Caution: The cigarette lighter must have a 12V negative ground socket. Do not use the adapter in a vehicle that has a positive ground system.

General

•Do not use the phone in extreme temperature or humidity. The specified operating temperature range is -22°F to +140°F (-30°C to +60°C).

•Extreme temperatures may have a temporary effect on the operation of your phone. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.

•Do not expose the phone (particularly the display) to direct sunlight for extended periods of time or to a humid, dusty or hot area.

•Do not attempt to disassemble the phone. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

•Do not subject the equipment to excessive vibration or shock.

•If connecting the phone to an external source, read the operating instructions of the equipment for the correct connection and safety precautions.

•If connecting the phone to an external source, verify that the phone is compatible with the product to which you are connecting it.

Availability of service

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connection in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (for example, medical emergencies).

Emergency (911) service

If you need to make an emergency (911) call, power the phone on, dial 911, and press D. Emergency calls can be made regardless of lock setting and with or without a SIM card. Remember, to make or receive any call, the phone must be switched on and in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Even if you are within the coverage area of your Service Provider, you may be in an area with insufficient signal strength to place a 911 call. Emergency calls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network service and/or phone features are in use.

Safety tips

Following the suggestions in this section will help ensure safe and efficient operation of your Panasonic phone.

This Model Phone Meets The Government’s Requirements For Exposure To Radio Waves.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.

Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.833 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.496 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID

NWJ26C001A.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.

Caution: All Panasonic branded accessories are tested and comply with FCC RF exposure requirements. Non-Panasonic accessories may not comply.

Body-worn operation

This device was tested for body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1.5 cm. from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 1.5 cm. separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.

Antenna care

This mobile phone incorporates an internal antenna for radio communisation. Do not use the phone if it is damaged. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Driving

Important: Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving:

•Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your first responsibility;

•Use handsfree operation, if available;

•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (6”) or 15 centimeters (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with independent research and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

•Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

•Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

•Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;

•If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids: Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, consult your Service Provider and hearing aid manufacturer.

Other Medical Devices: If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from 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.

Vehicles: RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities: Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air; switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft unless otherwise advised by airline personnel.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in other areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

For vehicles equipped with an air bag

An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

For U.S. Customers: Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-58).

TEN (10) DRIVER SAFETY TIPS

Your wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice-almost anywhere, anytime. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.

When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:

1.Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.

2.When available, use a hands free device. If possible, add an additional layer of convenience and safety to your wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories available today.

3.Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to access your wireless phone without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.

4.Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.

5.Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to do" list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.

6.Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.

7.Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.

Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

8.Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!

9.Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.

10.Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number.

"The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving."
