Vertu recommends that you occasionally wipe the exotic leather in the direction of the scales with a slightly
damp soft cloth, avoiding excessive pressure.
l If your phone accidentally gets wet, it is essential that you dry it as soon as possible with a soft,
absorbent cloth.
l Direct exposure to strong light, heat and humidityshould 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. All leather can be damaged and should be treated
with care.
Avoidthe 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 theirappearance.
Avoidthe following:
l Contact with chemicalssuch as solvents, alkaline and acidsolutions, cola-based drinks and
exposureto 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 Metalpolishes
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 are extremelyhard and durable, but can be damaged if handled inappropriately. For
example, they can be broken, or their settings 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.
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 productcan be lightlypolished using the Vertu microfibre
polishing cloth.
Sapphire and ceramics
Sapphire and ceramicsare very hard materials but are also brittle and can be scratched by hardermaterials
or objects. They can also be damaged if dropped.
Avoidthe 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

Medical considerations
The operation of radio transmitting equipment, including wirelessphones, may interferewith the function of
inadequately protected medicaldevices. Consult a physician or the manufacturersof the medical devices
to determine whether they are adequately shieldedfrom external RF (Radio Frequency) energy.
Manufacturersof medical devicesrecommend a minimum separation of 15.3 centimetres (6 inches)
between a wireless device and an implanted medicaldevice, such as a pacemakeror implanted
cardioverter defibrillator. Persons who have such devices should also:
l Not carrythe phone in a breast pocket.
l Holdthe phone to the ear opposite the medicaldevice.
l Turn the phone off if there is any reason to suspect interference.
l Follow the manufacturer’sinstructionsfor the implanted medicaldevice.
If you have any questions about using your wirelessdevice with an implanted medical device, consult your
health care provider.
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels f or
long periods. When you use the headset, your ability to hear outside soun ds
may be affected. Do not use the headset where it can endang er 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
Your phone complieswith FCC (Federal Communications Commission) rules governing hearing aid
compatibility. Some wirelessdevices may interfere with some hearing aids. For full hearing aid
compatibility, you should turn off the Bluetooth connectivity.
FCC’s wirelesshearing aid compatibility rules ensure that consumerswith hearing loss are able to access
wireless communications services through a wide selection of handsets without experiencing disabling
radiofrequency (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 specifiestesting procedures for determining the M-rating
and T-rating of the digital handsets.
A handset is considered hearing aid-compatible for acoustic coupling 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
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 M4/T3 rating.
Thisphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it
uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been
tested yet for use with hearingaids. It is important to try the different featuresof this phone thoroughly and
in different locations,using your hearing aid or cochlearimplant, to determine if you hear any interfering
noise. Consult your service provideror Vertu Customer Service for information on hearing aid compatibility.
If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult Vertu Customer Service.

out. When you believe that the performance of the devicehas deteriorated (for example, when the talk and
standby times on the phone are noticeablyshorterthan normal), replace the battery if it is removable, or, if it
is non-removable, take the associated device to the nearest authorised service facility.
Use the battery only fo r its in tended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged.
Use on ly Vertu-approved batteries, and recharge yo ur battery only with Vertu approved
chargers desig nated for the device.
Use of an unapproved battery or charger may result in a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or
oth er 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 conn ected to a charger, as overcharging may shorten the
battery’s lifetime.
Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or shred cells or 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 your skinor eyes immediately with water, or seek medical help.
Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to
water or other liquids.Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard. If the device or
battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and you believe that the battery has been damaged, take
it to the nearest service facility for inspection 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 completely discharged, it may take severalminutes
before the charging indicatorappears on the display or before any callscan be made.
Keep your device dry
Your Product is not fullywater-resistant, so keep it dry.
SIM card
The Constellationhas been designed for use with a nanoSIM card. All other SIM cardsare not supported.
The use of an incom patible SIM card may damage the card or the phon e, and may corrupt
data stored on the card.
To find the IMEI number, dial the sequence *#06# into the phone. The unique 15- digit IMEI code of your
phone is instantly displayed. 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 compliancelabel (refer to the
phone’s reference manual to locate this label).
WLAN
Use encryption to increase the security of your WLAN connection.
Headset connector
Do not connect productsthat create an output signal as this may cause damage to the phone. Do not
connect any voltage sourceto the headset connector. If you connect an external device or headset, other
than those approved by Vertu, pay specialattention to volume levels.
Camera flash
Keep a safe distance when using the flash in the camera. Do not use the flash on people or animals when
they are at close range. Do not cover the flash while taking a picture.
Protect your phone from harmful content
Your phone may be exposed to viruses and other harmful content. Take the following precautions:
l Be cautious when opening messages. They may contain malicious software or otherwise be harmful
to your phone or computer.
l Be cautious when accepting connectivity requests, browsing the internet, or downloading content.
l Do not accept Bluetooth connections from sources that you do not trust.
l Only install and use services and software from sourcesthat you trust and that offer adequate
security and protection.
l Installanti-virusand other security software on your phone and any connected computer. Only use
one anti-virus application at a time (using more may affect the performance and operation of the
phone and/or computer).
l If you access pre-installedbookmarksand linksto third party internet sites, take the appropriate
precautions. Vertu does not endorse or assume liabilityfor such sites.
Bluetooth hidden mode
Operatingthe phone when Bluetooth Visibility is set to Hidden is a safer way to avoid malicious software.
Alternatively, switch off the Bluetooth function completely(this does not affect other functionson the
phone).
Magnetic fields
Keep your phone away from magnets or magnetic fields.
Avoidtouching the antennae unnecessarily while they are transmitting or receiving. Contact with the
antennae affects the communication quality and may cause a higher power level during operation and
reduce battery life.
Backups
To keep your important data safe, store it in at least two separate places, such as on your phone and on
your PC.
It is particularly important to carry out a backup prior to repair or replacement of the
Product because con tent and data may be lost during these operations.

YOUR VERTU PHONE (MODEL: CONSTELLATION X, TYPE: VM-08,
FCC ID: P7QVM-08) MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your phone is a radio transmitterand receiver. It isdesigned to not exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent
scientificorganization ICNIRP, and include safety marginsdesigned to assure the protection of all persons,
regardlessof age and health.
The exposure guidelinesfor mobile devicesemploy a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0Watts/kilogram (W/kg),
averaged over ten grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions, with
the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in 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 requiredto 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 is 0.991W/kg. This phone meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the
normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least 5mm (3/16 inch) away from the body.
When a carrycase, belt clip or holder is 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 files or messages, this devicerequiresa good quality connection to the network.In
some cases,transmission of data filesor messages may be delayed until such a connection is available.
Ensure that the above separation distance instructionsare followed until the transmission is completed.
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
FederalCommunications Commission (USA) and Innovation, Science and Economic Development
Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6W/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
1.13W/kg,and when properly worn on the body ( 10 mm, 3/8 inch gap) is 1.19W/kg.
Carrythis device at least 10mm away from your body to ensure RFexposurelevel compliant or lower to the
reportedlevel. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain
metalliccomponents, to maintain a separation of 10mm between this device and your body.
Your phone may cause TV or radio interference (for example, when using the phone in close proximity to
receiving equipment). The FCC or IndustryCanada can require you to stop using your phone if such
interference cannot be eliminated. If you require assistance, contact Vertu Customer Service. TheProduct,
or Products,complywith Part15 of the FCC rules.
Operationis subject to the following two conditions: (i) the Product(s) may not cause harmful interference,
and (ii) the Product(s) must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesiredoperation. Any changes or modifications not expressly approvedby Vertu could void the user’s

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correctthe interference by
one or more of the following measures:
l Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
l Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
l Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
l Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
ThisClass B digital apparatus complieswith Canada ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B).
The device could automaticallydiscontinue transmission in case of absence of information to transmit or of
operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit the transmission of control or signalling
information or the use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.
l The device for the band 5150-5250MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
l The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350MHz and
5470-5725MHz) to complywith the limit on equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP).
l The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5850MHz) to comply with the
EIRP limits specified for point-to-point and non point-to-point operation as appropriate.
In addition, high-power radarsare allocated as primaryusers(meaning that they have priority) of the band
5250-5350MHz, and these radars could cause interference and/or damage to licence-exempt LAN
devices.
