Precautions/Maintenance
Precautions
Interference
Like any radio transmitter, a mobile phone can interfere with electrical equipment. You must always switch off your Xelibri:
•in hospitals and near medical equipment. If you have a heart pacemaker, keep your Xelibri a minimum of 20 cm from it and hold it to the ear furthest away.
•on aircraft.
For safety
Switch off your Xelibri near petrol stations, fuel or chemical plants or blasting operations.
Driving
Driving while holding a mobile phone is dangerous and illegal in many countries. Please use headset and then only when it is safe to do so.
30
Heat and moisture
Avoid moisture, shock or extreme heat (for instance,
leaving your Xelibri in a car in hot sun).
Other precautions
Take care, particularly overseas, that you charge your Xelibri using the correct voltage.
Do not open your Xelibri, except to change the SIM card or replace the battery. Tampering with your Xelibri or battery invalidates your warranty and may result in your network refusing service.
To ensure that you don’t damage your Xelibri, use only accessories – particularly chargers and batteries – supplied by Xelibri.
The battery is 100% mercury free, but take care to dispose of batteries legally. Check with your retailer.
For optimum performance, avoid covering the antenna (top rear of Xelibri) whilst using it.
Maintenance
The SIM card should be treated with the same care as a credit card. Do not bend or scratch it or expose it to static electricity.
Clean the card with a damp cloth or an antistatic wipe without chemical cleaning agents.
Remove the battery if you are not going to use your Xelibri for extended periods of time (more than one month)
Lost Xelibri
If you lose your Xelibri or SIM card contact your service provider immediately to prevent misuse.

SAR
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Mobile phones are radio transmitters and receivers.
Limits for radio frequency exposure are defined in international guidelines (ICNIRP), developed by independent scientific organisations.
The international recommended upper limit for exposure, and that recommended by The Council of the European Union, is a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 2.0 watts/ kilogram (W/kg).
Tests on this phone, conducted at maximum transmitting power, produced an SAR no greater than
0.58 W/kg. In areas of typical network coverage,
your phone transmits on lower power, resulting in a reduced SAR.
For more information on this issue, see www.my-siemens.com.
