SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

For your safety and proper operation of the mobile phone, please read the following information carefully and observe the simple guidelines provided. For detailed information, please refer to the Appendix.

Antenna

Do not use any antenna not authorized by Pantech. Using such antenna may cause malfunction or serious damage to the phone.

Traffic Safety

You should check and observe your local traffic regulations before using your mobile phone. Do not use your phone while driving. If unavoidable, use a hands-free device in a safe area.

Effects on Electronic Devices Inside the Car

RF (Radio Frequency) signals may adversely affect the electronic devices or systems in your car.

Hands-free Device

Installing an in-vehicle hands-free device on the area of deployment of an airbag or within the coverage of airbag inflation may cause serious injury.

Effects on Electronic Devices

RF signals emitted from your cell phone may adversely affect the electronic devices that are inadequately shielded against such signals.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Medical Devices

Turn off your cell phone in healthcare facilities and make sure to observe facility rules and regulations.

As external RF signals may interfere with a pacemaker(s) or another medical device(s), turn off your cell phone when near such devices.

Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device if you have any questions about using your phone in a healthcare facility.

Public Place

Turn off your cell phone in public areas where the use of cell phones is prohibited.

Boarding an Aircraft

Turn off your cell phone before boarding an aircraft. Using a cell phone inside the aircraft may seriously affect aircraft

operation.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Turn off your cell phone in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all posted signs and instructions in the area.

Do not separate the battery from your phone in an area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

User Guide

Do not allow another person to use your phone without your permission.

If the phone is lost or stolen, contact your service provider immediately.

If the phone does not function properly, take it to the nearest service center.

Use only approved accessories and batteries. Do not attempt to connect incompatible devices.

Avoid prolonged exposure to RF (radio frequency) signals emitted from the phone as it may adversely affect the human body.

Remember to make a backup copy of important data such as telephone numbers.

Exposure to Radio Waves

Your phone is comprised of a radio transmitter and receiver. It was designed and manufactured not to exceed the radio wave energy limit or exposure recommended by an independent scientific organization after extensive scientific studies.

Use only the batteries, chargers and accessories approved by authorized manufacturers so as to not exceed the recommended exposure guidelines. Use of unauthorized items may result in a failure to comply with the guidelines. In such a case, the safety of all users, regardless of their age and health condition, cannot be guaranteed.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Using Your Phone Properly

Use your cell phone in normal operating position (as a hand-held telephone is normally held).

Do not touch or bend the antenna while using the phone, as it may degrade the call quality or even affect battery performance.

Do not attempt to disassemble the phone. Non-expert handling may damage the phone.

Use only the batteries, chargers and accessories which are authorized or supplied with the phone.

Use of any unauthorized item may result in the invalidation of the warranty.
