Care of your phone

General care

If your Signature phone or any of the accessories are not working as they should, contact your Vertu dealer.

l Always use your Signature in the documented manner. Incorrect usage may affect performance.

l Do not attempt to open or disassemble yourSignature phone. The only part you ever need to open is

the SIM card tray and the battery cover. Your Signature phone should only be serviced by Vertuauthorised personnel.

l Do not mishandle or abuse your Signature phone.

l Use only Vertu-approved accessories.

l The supplied chargeris only intended for use with your Signature phone. Do not use them with any

other device, as this could result in permanent damage to the phone, battery, or charger.

l Keep your Signature phone and allparts and accessories out of the reach of small children and pets.

l Do not allow your Signature phone or accessories to come into contact with liquids or moisture, or

dust and dirt.

l Do not expose your Signature phone to extreme temperatures as these may cause the battery to

stop working temporarily. Performance isparticularlylimited in temperatures well below freezing.

l Do not apply paint or other similarsubstances to your Signature phone.

l Onlyuse a soft, clean cloth to clean your Signature phone. Do not use chemicals, detergents,

abrasive substances, or any liquids. Use a cotton swab to clean the camera lens.

l Do not insert any sharp objectsinto any of the audio ports.

Embroidery

Vertu recommends that you avoid the following:

l Direct exposure to strong light, heat and humidity

l Contact with items and substancesthat may stain or scratch the surfaces

If your Signature phone gets wet, it is essential that you dry it as soon as possible with a soft, absorbent cloth.

Exotic leathers

Vertu recommends that you occasionallywipe the exoticleather in the direction of the scaleswith a slightly damp soft cloth, avoiding excessive pressure.

l If your phone accidentallygets wet, it is essential that you dry it as soon as possible with a soft,

absorbent cloth.

Care of your phone

l Direct exposure to strong light, heat and humidity should be avoided, as well as contact with items

and substances that may stain or scratch the surfaces.

l Vertu recommends that you store your handset in a pouch when not in use.

Leather

Each piece of leather used by Vertu's craftsmen is unique. The natural markings present in the hide should be considered part of the individuality of fine leather. Allleather can be damaged and should be treated with care.

Avoid the following:

l Exposure to water and high humidity

l Dropping, rubbing or knocking on hard surfaces

l Exposure to extreme temperatures

l Contact with oily substances, make-up and solvents

Non-precious metals

Vertu metals are finished to a high standard and care needs to be taken to maintain their appearance.

Avoid the following:

l Contact with chemicals such as solvents, alkaline and acid solutions, cola-based drinks and

exposure to salt water. Wipe with a clean, soft cloth as soon as possible if contact occurs.

l Contact with sharp objects

l Dropping or knocking against hard surfaces

l Metal polishes

Precious metals

Precious metals, such as gold and platinum, have a much softer composite and extra care must be taken when handling a Vertu product containing these materials.

Precious stones

Precious stones are extremely hard and durable, but can be damaged if handled inappropriately. For example, they can be broken, or theirsettings could be damaged by a sharp impact on a hard surface, causing the stone to become loose or fall out.

Care should also be taken to avoid contact with other jewellery such as diamond rings and diamond earrings as they can cause abrasion and chipping of the stone or the setting. Reasonable care should be taken to not catch the setting with threads that may bend the setting and loosen the stones.

Care of your phone

We recommend that your Vertu phone is kept in a Vertu leather case when not being used, particularly when placed in handbags and other luggage.

If the stones appear to become dull from use, the product can be lightly polished using the Vertu microfibre polishing cloth.

Sapphire and ceramics

Sapphire and ceramicsare very hard materials but are also brittle and can be scratched by harder materials or objects. They can also be damaged if dropped.

Avoid the following:

l Contact with other hard materials such as diamond jewellery, nail files, abrasives and mineral crystals

l Dropping or knocking the product on hard surfaces

l Repeated rubbing against hard surfaces

Care of your phone

Safety and warranty

Safety text

The salespackage may contain several different products and parts (hereafter known collectively as the “Product”), for example a phone with various chargers. The following simple guidelines are intended to cover all products and parts. Not following the guidelines may result in risks to personal safety or data, damage to the Product, or in non-compliance with legal requirements.

Medical considerations

The operation of radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may interfere with the function of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturers of the medical devices to determine whether they are adequately shielded from external RF (Radio Frequency) energy.

Manufacturersof medical devices recommend a minimum separation of 15.3 centimetres (6 inches) between a wireless device and an implanted medical device, such as a pacemaker orimplanted cardioverter defibrillator. Personswho have such devices should also:

l Not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

l Hold the phone to the ear opposite the medical device.

l Turn the phone off if there is any reason to suspect interference.

l Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the implanted medical device.

If you have any questions about using your wireless device with an implanted medical device, consult your health care provider.

To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods. When you use the headset, your ability to hear outside sounds may be affected. Do not use the headset where it can endanger your safety. Listen to the headset at a moderate level, and do not hold the device near your ear when the loudspeaker is in use.

HAC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) for digital handsets

FCC’s wirelesshearing aid compatibility rulesensure that consumers with hearing loss are able to access wireless communications services through a wide selection of handsets without experiencing disabling radio frequency (RF) interference or other technical obstacles.

To define and measure the hearing aid compatibility of handsets, FCC references ANSI C63.19 2007 version and 2011 version; ANSI C63.19 standard specifies testing proceduresfor determining the M-rating and T-rating of the digital handsets.

A handset is considered hearing aid-compatible for acousticcoupling if it meets a rating of M3 or M4, under the ANSI C63.19. A handset is considered hearing aid-compatible for inductive coupling if it meets a rating

Safety and warranty

of T3 or T4, under ANSI C63.19. (Not all hearing-aids have telecoil inside.) This device was tested according to ANSI C63.19 2011 version, and this meets the M3 rating.

Consult your service provider or Vertu Customer Service for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult Vertu Customer Service.

Switch off the phone in restricted or dangerous areas

Switch the phone off when mobile phone use is not allowed or when it may cause interference or danger, for example near medical equipment, fuel, chemicals, orblasting areas.

Aeroplane profile when travelling

Unless specifically requested to turn the phone off, you can select the Aeroplane (offline) profile, which means that you cannot make orreceive any calls, or use other features that require cellularnetwork coverage, WLAN or Bluetooth. You can, however, still make emergency calls.

Use in vehicles

Radio signalsmay affect improperlyinstalled orinadequately shielded electronicsystems in motor vehicles such as electronicfuel injection, electronic anti-lockbraking, electronicspeed control, and air bag systems. Formore information, checkwith the manufacturerof your vehicle or itsequipment.

Onlyqualified personnel should install the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate your warranty. Check regularlythat all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carryflammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials, in the same compartment as the phone, its parts, or accessories. Remember that air bags inflate with great force, so do not place yourphone or accessories in the air bag deployment area.

Keep the product away from children

Keep your Product and all partsand accessories out of the reach of small children and pets. Failure to do this may endanger them and invalidate your Warranty.

Road safety comes first

Obey alllocal laws. Alwayskeep your hands free to operate your vehicle while driving. Your first consideration shouldbe road safety.

Qualified service

Onlyqualified personnel may installor repairthe Product.

Batteries, chargers and other accessories

If the Product has an internal battery, this is intended to be rechargeable and non removable, being intended for use when supplied with power from the Vertu Mains charger(AC-32V), orfrom a suitable computer. Do not attempt to remove the battery, as you may damage it.

The full performance of a new battery isachieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles. The battery in a device can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventuallywear

Safety and warranty

out. When you believe that the performance of the device has deteriorated (for example, when the talk and standby times on the phone are noticeably shorter than normal), replace the battery if it isremovable, or, if it is non-removable, take the associated device to the nearest authorised service facility.

Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is damaged. Use only Vertu-approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with Vertu approved chargers designated for the device. Use of an unapproved battery or charger may result in a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Do not connect other, incompatible devices to the chargers. When your charger is not in use, unplug it from the electrical plug and the device. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, as overcharging may shorten the battery’s lifetime.

Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or shred cellsor batteries. In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak, flush yourskin or eyes immediately with water, or seek medical help.

Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, orimmerse or expose it to water or other liquids. Improper batteryuse may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard. If the device or battery isdropped, especiallyon a hard surface, and you believe that the batteryhas been damaged, take it to the nearest service facility forinspection before continuing to use it. If the phone battery has not been used for a long time, then, in orderto begin charging it again, you may need to connect the charger, and then disconnect and reconnect it. If the battery is completelydischarged, it may take severalminutes before the charging indicator appears on the display or before any calls can be made.

Keep your device dry

Your Product is not fully water-resistant, so keep it dry.

SIM card

The Signature has been designed for use with a nanoSIM card. Allother SIM cards are not supported.

The use of an incompatible SIM card may damage the card or the phone, and may corrupt data stored on the card.

IMEI number and compliance number

To find the IMEI number, dial the sequence *#06# into the phone. The unique 15-digit IMEI code of your phone is instantlydisplayed. Write it down and keep it in a safe place so that you can find it if your phone is misplaced or stolen. You can also find the IMEI number by checking the compliance label (refer to the phone’s reference manual to locate this label).

WLAN

SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) notice - Type:VM-06

YOUR VERTU PHONE (MODEL: SIGNATURE S, TYPE: VM-06, FCC ID: P7QVM-06) MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES

Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limitsfor exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientificorganization ICNIRP, and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0Watts/kilogram (W/kg), averaged overten grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions, with the device transmitting at its highest certified power levelin all tested frequencybands. The actual SAR levelof an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors, such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the ear is0.628W/kg. Thisphone meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least 5mm (3/16 inch) away from the body. When a carrycase, belt clip or holderis used for body-worn operation, it should not contain metal, and should position the phone at the above-stated distance away from your body.

In order to transmit data filesor messages, this device requires a good quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until such a connection isavailable. Ensure that the above separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission iscompleted.

Use of phone accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under Product information at www.vertu.com.

USA and Canada

Your phone is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves established by the Federal CommunicationsCommission (USA) and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6W/kg, averaged over one gram of tissue. The FCC/IC highest SAR values reported under this standard during Product certification for use at the head is

1.09W/kg, and when properly worn on the body(10 mm, 3/8 inch gap) is1.19W/kg.
