let’s get started
Thanks for choosing the San Francisco II from Orange. If you’d like your new phone to live a long and fruitful life, please read this guide carefully and keep it for future reference. You never know when you might need it.
And don’t worry if the pictures we use to demonstrate your phone’s functions look a little different from what you see on its screen. It’s the functions they show that really matter.
and get in touch with your phone Another thing you’ll notice is that we talk about ‘tapping’ a lot. That’s because your
San Francisco II has a touchscreen, which means a simple tap with your finger can both select and open a file. Indeed, you can ‘slide’ switches on the screen, ‘hold’ files until a list of shortcuts pops up, casually ‘flick’ from page to page, ‘drag’ items into the bin with a well-aimed index finger, or even pinch with two fingers to zoom in to a web page or a photo. It’s a pleasure to use.
And that’s exactly what this guide is about: making sure the relationship with your new phone is a pleasure from day one. So please read on and enjoy…
15
the boring safety section you really should read…
general safety
It may not be the most exciting read but it’s for your safety, and the safety of those around you. There are certain things you shouldn’t do with you phone and some of them might come as a bit of surprise. So please have a look at the following list dos and don’ts…
16
Don’t make or receive handheld calls while driving. And never text while driving.
Keep your phone at least 15mm away from your ear or body while making calls.
Small parts are a choking hazard.
Your phone can produce a loud sound.
Don’t use at petrol stations.
Your phone may produce a bright or flashing light.
Don’t dispose of your phone in fire.
Avoid contact with anything magnetic.
Keep away from pacemakers and other electronic medical devices.
Switch off when asked to in hospitals and medical facilities.
Switch off when told to in planes and at airports.
Switch off when near explosive materials or liquids.
Don’t rely on your phone for emergency communications.
Avoid extreme temperatures.
Avoid contact with liquids. Keep your phone dry.
Don’t take your phone apart.
Only use approved accessories.
radio frequency (RF) exposure
Your phone is a radio transmitter and a receiver. When switched on, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you make or receive a call, the phone controls the RF energy level – using only as much as it needs to make a connection to the network.
17
understanding ‘Specific Absorption Rate’ (SAR)
The San Francisco II is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by ICNIRP, an independent body of scientific experts. The guidelines include safety margins so that nobody, regardless of age and health, is at risk.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2W/kg and the highest SAR value for the San Francisco II when tested (in accordance with EN 50360, EN 62209-1 and EN 62209-2) by the ear was 1.20 W/kg.
SAR is measured when the phone is at its highest transmitting power. However, the actual SAR of your phone is usually below the test level. This is because your phone is designed to use the minimum power necessary to make and receive calls.
limiting your exposure to radio Frequency (RF)
Please remember that, however you use your phone, RF exposure guidelines say that you should keep it 15mm away from your body while using the phone. Otherwise your RF exposure could exceed recommended limits.
If you want to limit your exposure to RF, the World Health Organization (WHO) gives the following advice:
18
‘Present scientific information 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.’
You can find more information about this from the WHO fact sheet N°193 on the WHO home page at http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/en.
antennae and radio waves
Radio waves are sent and received via antennae. The main antenna in the San Francisco II is low down in the phone, near the microphone into which you speak…

Note: Please don’t use the product outdoors in France.
regulatory information
For all regulatory information, please refer to the Declaration of RoHS Compliance and the EC Declaration of Conformity at the end of this guide.
21
driving and operating machinery: avoiding distraction
Using your phone while driving or operating machinery (even with a legal hands-free kit) can cause distraction and accidents.
Make sure you obey local laws and regulations on the use of wireless devices while driving or operating machinery.
warning: air bag danger
When driving, don’t place your phone on anywhere in or on the air bag deployment area.
Put it somewhere safe before setting off.
looking after your phone – and yourself
You’re responsible for how you use your phone and any consequences of that use. Most of the following are common sense, but it’s really important to read these dos
and don’ts, just in case there’s something you didn’t know…
Switch off your phone wherever its use is prohibited.
Treat your phone and its accessories with care – keeping them in a clean,
dust-free place.
22
Don’t expose your phone or accessories to open flames or lit tobacco products.
Don’t expose your phone or its accessories to liquid, moisture or high humidity.
Don’t drop, throw or try to bend your phone or its accessories.
Don’t use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or aerosols to clean your phone
or its accessories.
Don’t paint your phone or its accessories.
Don’t try to mend or take apart your phone. That’s a job for qualified
technicians.
Don’t expose your phone or its accessories to extreme temperatures of less than -5 and more than 50 degrees celsius.
Don’t put your phone in a back pocket as it could break when you sit down.
Please check local laws and regulations before disposing of electronic
products.
keep children safe
Your phone contains small parts with sharp edges that could cause an injury or may become detached and create a choking hazard.
So don’t leave your phone and its accessories within the reach of small children or allow them to play with them. They could hurt themselves, others, or damage the phone.
23
avoid demagnetization
If your phone is close to – or placed on – electronic devices or magnetic media for a long time, it could get damaged by being demagnetized.
prevent electrostatic discharge
When the phone’s back cover is off (for example, when you’re inserting your SIM) don’t touch the SIM card’s metal connectors. And try not to touch the antenna either.
warning: seizures and blackouts
The phone can produce a bright or flashing light which can cause seizures or blackouts in some people.
avoid repetitive strain injury (RSI)
To reduce the risk of RSI when texting or playing games on your phone:
Don’t grip the phone too tightly.
Press buttons lightly.
Use the special features, such as message templates and predictive text that
reduce the need to press buttons.
Give yourself – and your fingers – regular breaks.
24
making emergency calls
This phone operates using radio signals and cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore, you must never rely solely on your phone for emergency communications.
don’t damage your hearing
Your phone can produce loud noises which could damage your hearing. In particular, remember to lower the volume before using headphones, Bluetooth® stereo headsets or other audio devices.
phone getting warm?
Your phone may become warm (but should not become hot) while charging or being used. Don’t worry as this is normal.
electrical safety
using the right accessories
Only use approved accessories for the San Francisco II. Connecting it with incompatible products or accessories is likely to damage it. And when the back cover is off, take care not to touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings, to contact the battery terminals. It could cause a short circuit.
25
installing in a car
Seek professional advice when connecting your phone to a vehicle’s electrical system.
faulty or damaged equipment
Don’t try to mend or take apart your phone or its accessories. Leave that to the professionals. Only qualified technicians from an authorised service centre should service or repair them.
If your phone (or its accessories) has been submerged in water, punctured, or dropped from a height, don’t use it. Take it to an authorised service centre.
interference
Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids. It can also interfere with navigational systems in planes and even car electronics...
pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend a minimum distance of 15cm between phone and pacemaker. So, if you’ve got a pacemaker, use your phone on the ear furthest from your pacemaker (usually the right ear). And don’t carry your phone in a breast pocket.
26
hearing aids
Your phone might interfere with hearing aids. The level of interference depends on the type of hearing aid and the distance between it and your phone. So increasing the distance between the two may help. If interference continues to be an issue for you or someone you know, a hearing aid manufacturer might be able to offer a solution.
medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if the operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
hospitals
To prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment, switch off your phone when asked to do so in hospitals, clinics or healthcare facilities.
aircraft
Switch off your phone whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff. Or, if allowed, switch your phone to ‘Airplane mode’ before boarding.
27
vehicles
Because of possible interference with electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is fitted.
explosive environments
petrol stations and other explosive atmospheres
One tiny spark can cause an explosion. So please obey all signs and requests to turn off wireless devices, such as your phone.
Areas with potentially volatile or explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below deck on boats, chemical transfer/storage facilities, and places where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
blasting areas
Switch off your mobile phone or wireless device when in or near blasting areas, such as quarries. Not just because of the danger from explosives, but also because of the interference your phone may cause with blasting operations.
