Product Safety Information
• RF Exposure
General Statement on RF energy
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits
RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling your call
controls the power level at which your phone transmits.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These
guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organisation ICNIRP and include
safety margins designed to ensure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when
tested at the ear was 0.867 W/kg
(1)
. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can
be used in other positions, such as on the body as described in this user guide.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest transmitting power, the actual SAR
of this device 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
power required to communicate with the network.
Body worn operation
Important safety information regarding radiofrequency radiation (RF) exposure.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a
minimum of 1.0 cm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the
relevant guideline limits.
"The highest SAR value for this mobile phone when tested for use at the body and
compliance against the standard is 1.08 W/kg. While there may be differences between
the SAR levels on various phones and at various positions, they all meet the relevant
International guidelines and EU requirements for RF (radio-waves) exposure"
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health
Organisation (WHO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the 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.
(1)
The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard PT62209-1.
Further information on this subject can be obtained from the WHO home page http://
www.who.int/peh-emf WHO Fact sheet 193: June 2000.
Regulatory information
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as noted.
Page 6

Repetitive Motion Injuries
To minimise the risk of RSI, when texting or playing games with your phone:
- Do not grip the phone too tightly
- Press the buttons lightly
- Make use of the special features in the handset which minimise the number of buttons
which have to be pressed, such as message templates and predictive text
- Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you must never rely solely on any wireless phone
for emergency communications.
Loud Noise
This phone is capable of producing loud noises which may damage your hearing.
Prolonged exposure to music at full volume on the music player may damage the
listener's hearing. Use the recommended headphones only.
Bright Light
This phone is capable of producing flashes of light, do not use it too close to the eyes.
Phone Heating
Your phone may become warm during charging and during normal use.
• Electrical Safety

• Interference
General statement on interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices,
such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be
maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. To achieve this use the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker
and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interference noises
when using wireless devices or when one is nearby. The level of interference will depend
on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source, increasing
the separation between them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your
phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health
care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive
medical equipment.
Page 8
13 14
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline
staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft, if your
device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Interference in cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle
manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit
with an external antenna is included in the installation.
• Explosive environments
Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off
wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted

label and in the product’s memory. We recommend that you note the number the first
time you use your telephone by entering * # 0 6 # and keep it in a safe place. It may be
requested by the police or your operator if your telephone is stolen. This number allows
your mobile telephone to be blocked preventing a third person from using it, even with
a different SIM card.
(1)
Contact your network operator for service availability.
This symbol on your telephone, the battery and the accessories means that
these products must be taken to collection points at the end of their life:
- Municipal waste disposal centres with specific bins for these items of
equipment
- Collection bins at points of sale.
They will then be recycled, preventing substances being disposed of in the
environment, so that their components can be reused.
In European Union countries:
These collection points are accessible free of charge.
All products with this sign must be brought to these collection points.
In non European Union jurisdictions:
Items of equipment with this symbol are not to be thrown into ordinary bins if your
jurisdiction or your region has suitable recycling and collection facilities; instead they are
to be taken to collection points for them to be recycled.
CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
