RF Safety Information

The handset has an internal antenna located in the top of the phone. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption do not cover the antenna area with your hand. Hold the handset between thumb and finger in the middle of the device. Covering the antenna affects call quality, may cause the handset to operate at higher power levels than needed, and may shorten talk and idle times. The handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimized for best performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low. Under poor network conditions the phone will transmit at a higher power, may get hot and will have a significantly shorter battery life.

Interference with Pacemakers and other Medical Devices

Your mobile phone may cause interference with pacemakers, hearing aids and other medical devices. Interference may be caused by transmitted radio signals when the phone is held in close proximity to the device or in direct contact with the skin. It is important to note that any interaction between the mobile phone and the device is temporary. Moving the phone away will restore the device to its correct operation.

Declaration of Conformity

We declare that the product(s) detailed in this manual, and in combination with our accessories, conform with the essential requirements of The Radio Communications Standard (Electro-magnetic Radiation Human Exposure) 2003 and the Australian Communications & Media Authority Section 376 of the Telecommunications Act 1997.

N14945

General Safety and Maintenance Information

The handset contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets and battery systems. You should treat it with care and pay attention to the following points:

• Handle the handset with care. Do not

drop or throw the handset down roughly.

• Do not immerse in any liquid. The

handset contains a liquid detection sticker and the warranty will be voided by any liquid ingress.

• The operation of some medical devices,

such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be affected by the handset. Please see the warning in the section above.

• Do not place the handset near

computer disks, credit cards, and other magnetic media. The information contained on disks or cards may be erased or damaged.

• Do not leave the handset or battery in

direct sunlight or near other heat sources where temperatures could exceed 45°C.

other accessories away from children.

• Do not put the battery in your mouth.

• Be careful not to pierce the battery with

sharp objects and do not use damaged batteries.

• Do not disassemble or modify the

• Only use original replacement batteries.

• It is normal for the handset to become

warm while the battery is being charged.

• Stop using the battery if excessive heat,

odour, discolouration, deformation, or abnormal condition is detected during use, charge or storage.

• In the unlikely event of a battery leak

avoid contact with your eyes or skin. Flush with water and consult a doctor.

• Take care not to allow metal objects

• Do not put the handset into a

microwave oven, dryer, or high-pressure container.

• Don’t use the handset immediately

after a sudden temperature change eg. from an air conditioned environment to high temperature and humidity outside. In such cases there could be condensing moisture inside the handset which can cause internal damage. Switch off and leave for 30 minutes before use.

• Do not use the handset while driving or

operating other machinery.

• Do not use the handset where blasting

is in progress.

• Do not leave the handset at the bottom

of a bag where it may be damaged by sharp objects.

• At high volume, prolonged listening to

audio devices can cause hearing loss.

• Observe and obey warning signs at

petrol stations, airports and hospitals.

• Switch the phone off when boarding

aircraft.

• Do not use your phone or accessories at

refuelling points, near fuel or chemicals or store it in the same compartment as flammable gas, liquid or explosives.

• Do not leave the handset discharged or

disconnected for a long time, otherwise your personal data may be lost.

• Remember to make backup copies of all

important data on the handset.

• Take care when the phone is in your

pocket. Sitting down may damage the handset.

• Under poor network conditions battery

life is considerably reduced.

• When the battery is thrown away cover

the terminals with insulating tape.

• Please recycle the packaging and all

parts as advised in Section 12

• Emergency service coverage is

dependant on network availability and battery status.

• It is always good practice to switch off

the handset regularly.

The handset contains an antenna and receiver specifically for A-GPS signals and this enables the handset to calculate its position in terms of longitude, latitude and altitude.

• Stand alone GPS is a limited service pre-installed in the handset, that in good

conditions will provide a decimal location position.

• Full functionality requires additional applications to be installed or supplied by third

parties. Please contact Telstra for more information.

• The GPS receiver requires signals from at least three satellites and can take several

minutes to acquire.

• Reception is reduced in city areas, best reception is achieved with a clear view of the

whole sky.

• The signal strength may be reduced in a vehicle, indoors or in overcast weather

conditions.

• The antenna is in the top of the phone. Avoid blocking it with your hands

• It is not recommended to utilise stand alone GPS for mission critical applications.

• To switch GPS On or Off go to Tools, GPS Status. Perform a search under GPS Location.

Results will be dependant on the above conditions.
