Don’t rely on your phone for emergency communications.
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.
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 organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as 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 1.54 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on
12
the body as described in this user guide**.
As SAR is measured utilizing 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.
*The tests are carried out in accordance with EN 50360, EN 62311, EN 62209-1, EN 62209-2.
**Please see body worn operation.
Important safety information regarding radio frequency radiation (RF) exposure:
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a minimum of 15 mm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information
13
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.
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).
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as noted.

Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a phone while driving (even with a hands free kit) can cause distraction and lead to an accident. You must comply with local laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.
15
Full attention must be given to operating the machinery in order to reduce the risk of an accident.
You alone are responsible for how you use your phone and any consequences of its use.
You must always switch off your phone wherever the use of a phone is prohibited. Use of your phone is subject to safety measures designed to protect users and their environment.
Always treat your phone and its accessories with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
Do not expose your phone or its accessories to open flames or lit tobacco products.
Do not expose your phone or its accessories to liquid, moisture or high humidity.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend your phone or its accessories.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or aerosols to clean the device or its accessories.
Do not paint your phone or its accessories.
16
Do not attempt to disassemble your phone or its accessories, only authorized personnel can do so.
Do not expose your phone or its accessories to extreme temperatures, minimum - [5] and maximum + [50] degrees Celsius.
Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
Do not carry your phone in your back pocket as it could break when you sit down.
Do not leave your phone and its accessories within the reach of small children or allow them to play with it.
They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the phone.
Your phone contains small parts with sharp edges that may cause an injury or may become detached and create a choking hazard.
To avoid the risk of demagnetization, do not allow electronic devices or magnetic media close to your phone for a long time.
Do not touch the SIM card’s metal connectors.

Do not place a phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
Store the phone safely before driving your vehicle.
The phone can produce a bright or flashing light.
To minimize the risk of RSI when texting or playing games with your phone:
Do not grip the phone too tightly.
Press the buttons lightly.
Use the special features which are designed to minimize the times of pressing buttons, such as Message Templates and Predictive Text.
19
Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax.
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.
This phone is capable of producing loud noises, which may damage your hearing. Turn down the volume before using headphones, Bluetooth stereo headsets or other audio devices.
Your phone may become warm during charging and during normal use.
Use only approved accessories.
Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories.
Take care not to touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings, to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
20
Seek professional advice when connecting a phone interface to the vehicle electrical system.
Do not attempt to disassemble the phone or its accessory.
Only qualified personnel can service or repair the phone or its accessory.
If your phone or its accessory has been submerged in water, punctured, or subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you have taken it to be checked at an authorized service centre.
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
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.
21
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering 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.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
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.
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
22
must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.
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.
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
