Safety and use
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your
mobile phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage,
which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to
the instructions contained herein.
TRAFFIC SAFETY:•
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle
constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is used (car kit,
headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their mobile phone
when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the
use of wireless mobile phones and their accessories in the areas where
you drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices may be prohibited
or restricted in certain areas.
When driving, do not use your mobile phone and headphone to listen
to music or to the radio. Using a headphone can be dangerous and
forbidden in some areas.
When switched on, your mobile phone emits electromagnetic waves
that can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS antilock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- do not place your mobile phone on top of the dashboard or within an
airbag deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure
that the car’s electronic devices are shielded from mobile phone RF
energy.
CONDITIONS OF USE:•
You are advised to switch off the mobile phone from time to time to
optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of mobile phone use on
aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices
in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems: Turn off your mobile
device in any location where posted notices instruct you to do so. In
an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed to do so
by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar
feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are in health care facilities,
except in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment
now in regular use, mobile phones can interfere with other electrical or
electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids.

CHARGERS•
Home A.C./ Travel chargers will operate within the temperature range of:
0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).
The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard
for safety of information technology equipment and office equipment
use. Due to different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you
purchased in one jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction. They
should be used for this purpose only.
Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):
Travel charger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A
Output: 5 V, 550 mA
Battery: Lithium 1000 mAh
RADIO WAVES:•
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio-frequency (RF) energy. 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. These guidelines include a substantial
safety margin designed to ensure 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 set by
public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission of
the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged
over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions with the mobile 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 mobile phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the mobile 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 of the mobile phone. Before
a mobile phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with
national regulations and standards must be shown.

The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone when tested is 0.826
W/Kg (Vodafone Chat 655/655W) for use at the ear and 1.06 W/Kg
(Vodafone Chat 655W, with 1.0cm distances), 0.685 W/Kg (Vodafone Chat
655, with 1.5 cm distances) for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
mobile phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the mobile
phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with
a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://
www.phonefacts.net
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for
use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose
to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length
of calls, or using “hands-free” devices to keep mobile phones away from
the head and body. (fact sheet n°193). Additional WHO information
about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the
following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for
help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio
service (e.g. FM broadcast), they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Your mobile phone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal
operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in
positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device
will be compliant with the guidelines when used with headset or usb
data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the mobile
phone at least 10 mm away from the body.
