R Completely insert the AC adaptor into the
power outlet. Failure to do so may cause electric shock and/or excessive heat resulting in a fire.
R Regularly remove any dust, etc. from the
AC adaptor by pulling it from the power outlet, then wiping with a dry cloth. Accumulated dust may cause an insulation defect from moisture, etc. resulting in a fire.
R Unplug the product from power outlets and
remove the battery from the phone if it emits smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped emitting and contact an authorised service centre.

Operating safeguards
R Unplug the product from power outlets
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
R Do not disassemble the product. R Do not allow liquids such as water, or
foreign materials such as metal pieces or flammable materials to get into the SIM card holder. This can result in the risk of fire, electric shock, or malfunction.
R Do not leave this product near heat sources
(such as radiators, cookers, etc.), in direct sunlight, or in a car under blazing sun. It should not be placed in rooms where the temperature is less than 0 °C or greater than 40 °C.
R You are advised not to use the phone in an
aircraft. Turn the phone off before boarding an aircraft. Set the alarm function off so that the phone cannot be automatically turned on. Using this phone in an aircraft may be hazardous to the aircraft’s operation and disrupt wireless communication. It may also be illegal.
R You are advised not to use this product at
refuelling points. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
R It is imperative that drivers exercise proper
control of vehicles at all times. Do not use a phone while you are driving; find a safe place to stop first. Do not speak into a hands free microphone if it will take your mind off the road. Always acquaint yourself thoroughly with restrictions concerning the use of phones within the area where you are driving and observe them at all times.
R RF signals may affect electronic systems in
motor vehicles (for example, fuel injection, air bag systems) that have been improperly installed or are inadequately shielded. For more information, consult the manufacturer of your vehicle or its equipment.
R The use of excessive sound volume
through earphones, headphones, or headsets may cause hearing loss.
R Do not shine the LED light close to
anybody’s eyes or turn the LED light in the direction of car drivers. This can result in the risk of injuries or accident.
Medical
R Consult the manufacturer of any personal
medical devices, such as pacemakers or implanted cardioverter defibrillators to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy.
R Wireless Technology Research (WTR)
recommends a minimum separation of
15.3 cm between a wireless device and an implanted medical device such as pacemaker or implanted cardioverter defibrillator to avoid potential interference with the medical device. If you have any reason to suspect that your phone is interfering with a pacemaker or other medical devices, turn off the phone immediately and contact the manufacture of pacemaker or other medical devices.
R Turn off the phone in hospitals or health
care facilities when any regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

SAR
This model meets international guidelines and EU requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed radio wave exposure limits recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organisation ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
These guidelines also form the basis of international regulations and standards on RF Exposure. The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for wireless devices is 2 W/kg. The highest SAR value for this device tested at the ear was 0.450 W/kg. As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting power the actual SAR of this unit while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to communicate with the network. ICNIRP (http://www.icnirp.org)
