General Statement on RF Energy

The phone 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 transmits at a higher power,
may get hot and have a shorter battery life.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)

The phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by the ICNIRP. The limits include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The guidelines measure the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2W/Kg and the highest SAR value for this
device is 1.15 W/Kg.

Tips to maximise battery life

 Do not leave the battery in a discharged state. Charge the

battery promptly when flat.

 If the battery is in a deep discharge state it can take 30

minutes to start charging. Leave it on charge to recover the
battery.

 Keep your handset and battery cool. High temperatures

degrade the battery more quickly.

 Normal charge time is 3-4 hours. Do not leave on charge for

more than 24hrs.

 After 2-3 charge / discharge cycles the battery life will

improve. From then on use top up charging to recharge
frequently and always charge promptly when flat.

 When not using the phone for long periods charge to approx

40% and remove the battery.

 With poor network conditions (less than 2 bars) battery life is

reduced.

 Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to extend battery life.
