Safety information
In your car
Always check on the laws and regulations governing the use of cellular
telephones in force in the country in which you are driving. Should you use
the telephone while driving, the following should always be adhered to:
t Always pay maximum attention to your driving.
t Only use your automobile kit where available.
t Do not stop your car in the emergency lanes on a motorway to make
or receive calls, only stop the vehicle in parking areas provided.
Electronic devices
Most electronic devices are protected by RF signals. Some electronic
apparatus may not be sufficiently protected against RF signals emitted by
the cellular telephone.
Pacemakers
t When the telephone is switched on always keep it at least 30 cm from
pacemakers.
t Do not keep the telephone in pockets near the thorax.
t Use the ear on the opposite side from the pacemaker when using the
telephone.
t If you suspect any interference with the pacemaker, switch the
telephone off immediately.
Other medical devices
If you are using the telephone near medical equipment, consult the
manufacturer to ensure that it is adequately protected from RF signals.
The telephone must be switched off in medical centres where this is
expressly indicated. It is possible that medical equipment in use in
hospitals and medical centres may be sensitive to RF signals.

Vehicles
The use of cellular telephones inside vehicles may have a negative effect
on their functioning, where these have not been correctly installed, and
where RF signals emitted by the cellular phone have not been sufficiently
shielded.
Where there are warnings
Always keep your telephone switched off wherever notices are posted
expressly requesting this.
Aircraft
Standards set by aeronautical authorities forbid the use of telephones
while an aircraft is flying.
Telephones must always be switched off before boarding an aircraft.
Locations where there is a danger of explosion
The telephone must be switched off, and the battery must not be removed
wherever there is a danger of explosion. Always comply with warnings and
instructions. In such locations the smallest spark may cause explosion or
fire.
Areas that are subject to the danger of explosion are usually, but not
always, clearly marked. These include, but are not limited to: filling stations
like petrol garages, between decks on ships, depots or transhipment areas
for fuels or chemicals, areas subject to the emission of fuel vapours, areas
where the air contains chemical products, and any other area where the
request is made that vehicles be switched off.

Cradle
The cradle connects your Telit Sat 550 telephone to the car kit allowing
you to use it with the micro telephone or in hands-free mode. When
connected to the amplifier using a coaxial wire, the cradle amplifies the
audio output, removes the echo, charges the Sat 550’s battery and keeps
it charged, and connects the telephone to the vehicle IO devices.
Amplifier
The amplifier (ODU) connects the external Globalstar antenna to the car
kit. This must be housed in the passenger compartment or the boot of the
vehicle, so as not to interfere with the normal use of the vehicle. It must
also be so positioned that it is easily connected to the cradle (using the 5 m
coaxial wire provided) and the magnetic external antenna (using the 2 m
coaxial wire provided).
Micro telephone
The micro telephone (included in the pack) allows you greater privacy
during a conversation than when using the hands-free mode. The use of
the micro telephone automatically disables the hands-free feature.
Note: It is possible to change from a private conversation to the
hands-free mode, by simply replacing the micro telephone in its
cradle. To end a call, the e key must be pressed on the Sat 550.
Loudspeaker and Microphone
The loudspeaker is fitted with a 2.8 m wire for connecting it to the cradle
via the 3.5 mm stereo jack. When installing, position the loudspeaker at
least 1 m from the microphone and not facing it.
