Do not use your phone in damp areas (bathroom, swimming pool…). Protect it from liquids and other moisture.、 Do not expose your phone to extreme temperatures lower than - 10°C and higher than + 55°C. The physicochemical processes created by chargers impose temperature limits when charging the battery. Your phone automatically protects the batteries in extreme temperatures. Do not leave your phone within the reach of small children (certain removable parts may be accidentally ingested). Electrical safety: Only use the chargers listed in the manufacturer’s catalogue. Using any other charger may be dangerous; it would also invalidate your warranty. Line voltage must be exactly the one indicated on the charger’s serial plate. Aircraft safety: When traveling by plane, you will need to switch your phone off when so instructed by the cabin crew or the warning signs. Using a mobile phone may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may disrupt the phone network. Its use is illegal and you could be prosecuted or banned from using cellular networks in the future if you do not abide by these regulations. Explosive materials: Please comply with warning signs at petrol station asking you to switch your phone off. You will need to comply with radio equipment
usage restrictions in places such as chemical plants, fuel depots and at any location where blasting operations are under way.
Electronic equipment: To avoid the risk of demagnetization, do not let electronic devices close to your phone for a long time.
Electronic medical equipment: Your phone is a radio transmitter which may interfere with electronic medical equipment or implants, such as hearing aids,
pacemakers, insulin pumps, etc. It is recommended that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between the phone and an implant. Your doctor or the
4
manufacturers of such equipment will be able to give you any advice you may
need in this area. Hospitals: Always make sure that your phone is switched off in hospitals when
so instructed by warning signs or by medical staff. Road safety: Do not use your phone when driving. In order to give your full
attention to driving, stop and park safely before making a call. You must comply with any current legislation.

holding the phone at the ear, position the phone a minimum of 2.5 cm from your body,
• Data operation: When using a data feature, position the phone a minimum of
2.5 cm from your body for the whole duration of the data transmission.
