Important Information
Safety Considerations
The following information should be read and understood as it provides details
which will enable you to operate your phone in a manner which is both safe to
you and your environment, and conforms to any legal requirements regarding
the use of cellular phones.
This equipment should only be charged with approved charging
equipment. Other usage will invalidate any approval given to this
apparatus and may be dangerous. The use of approved charging
equipment is recommended to ensure optimum performance and
avoid damage to your phone. Ensure the voltage rating of the Fast
Travel Charger is compatible with the area of use when travelling
abroad.
A Fast Travel Charger (EB-CAG60xx*) is supplied with the Main
Kit. Other recommended equipment for charging – Car Charger
(EB-CDG60).
Note: *xx identifies the charger region, e.g. CN, EU, UK.
Use of a Battery pack other than that recommended by the manu-
facturer may result in safety hazard.
Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. The use of cellular phones in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and may be illegal. Failure to
observe this instruction may lead to the suspension or denial of
cellular phone services to the offender, or legal action or both.
Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery as ordinary rubbish.
The battery must be disposed of in accordance with local legislation and may be recycled.
It is advised not to use the equipment at a refuelling point. Users
are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations
are in progress. Never expose the battery to extreme temperatures (in excess of 60°C).
ii
Important Information
It is imperative that the driver exercises proper control of the
vehicle at all times. Do not hold a phone while you are driving;
find a safe place to stop first. Do not speak into a Handsfree
microphone if it will take your mind off the road. Always acquaint
yourself thoroughly with restrictions concerning the use of cellular phones within the area you are driving and observe them at all
times.
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Do not leave the camera facing direct sunlight to avoid impair of
the camera performance.
If you use feature which keeps key backlight on continuously for a
long time, such as camera, game, or browser, battery life will
become extremely short. To maintain longer battery life, set the
key backlight off. See Key Backlight On/Off, page 31.
For most efficient use hold the phone as you would any normal
phone. Your G60 cellular phone is fitted with an internal antenna,
located in the upper portion of the phone, behind the display
screen. To avoid deterioration of signal quality or antenna performance, do not touch or “cup” the antenna area while the phone is
switched on. (See “SAR Statement”)
This equipment should only be used with Panasonic approved
accessories to ensure optimum performance and avoid damage to
your phone. Panasonic is not responsible for damages caused by
using non-Panasonic approved accessories.
Unauthorized modifications or attachments may damage the
phone and violate applicable regulations. The use of unapproved
modification or attachment may result in the invalidation of your
guarantee – this does not affect your statutory rights.
This Panasonic mobile phone is designed, manufactured and
tested to ensure that it complies with the specifications covering
RF exposure guidelines applicable at the time of manufacture, in
accordance with EU, USA FCC, and Australian ACA regulations.
Please refer to our website for latest information/standards compliance in your country/region of use.

SAR Statement
SAR Statement
European union – RTTE
THIS PANASONIC PHONE (MODEL EB-G60) MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy recommended by The Council of the European Union. These limits
are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organisations 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.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended
by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/kg.* Tests for SAR have been
conducted using standard operating positions 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 base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the
European R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive includes as one
essential requirement the protection of the health and the safety for the user
and any other person. The SAR value for this model phone, when tested for
use at the ear, for compliance against the standard was 0.732 W/kg. While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over ten grams of tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR
information in other regions please look under product information at
http://www.panasonicmobile.com/health.html
