Using your phone safely

on the road

 Using a phone while driving is illegal in many countries.

Please follow local laws and drive safely at all times.

near sensitive electronics

 Don’t use your phone near sensitive electronic equipment –

particularly medical devices s uch a s pa cem aker s – a s it c ould
cause them to malfunction. It can also interfere with the
operation of fire detectors and other automatic-control
equipment.

 For more information about how your phone affects

pacemakers or other electronic equipment, please contact
the manufacturer or your local distributor.

 Your phone may cause interference when used near TVs,

radios or automated office equipment.

while flying

 Your phone can cause interference with aircraft equipment.

So it’s essential you follow airline regulations. And if airline

professionals. Unauthorized repairs could break the terms of
your warranty.

broken antenna

 Don’t use your phone if the antenna is damaged, as it could

cause injury.

around children

 Keep your mobile out of children’s reach. It should never be

used as a toy and it might not be good for their health.

-16-

original accessories

 Only use the original access ori es s upplied with your phone or

those approved by the manufacturer. Using unapproved
accessories may affect performance, ma ke the w arr anty v oid,

Battery care and safety

 Keep the battery in a cool, ventilated place and out of direct

sunlight.

 Although the battery is rechargeable, it’ll eventually start to

lose its ability to recharge. If you find that the battery won’t
recharge, it’s time to replace it.

 Please don’t throw old batteries into your household rubbish.

You’ll find there are special bins for batteries at refuse
collection points. And some high street electrical stores
provide a battery recycling service too.

 Never throw the battery into a fire – it’s highly inflammable

and could explode, hurting you or somebody else.

 When you put the battery into your phone, there’s no need to

use force. Exerting too much pressure could make it leak,
overheat, explode or burst into flame.

 Never take the battery apart. This may result in leakage,

overheating, explosion or fire.

 If the battery becomes hot, changes colour or shape at any

time (when in use, charging or even while in storage) please
stop using it immediately and replace.

 Keep the battery dry. Damp or wet conditions can cause it to

overheat or corrode.

 Don’t leave the battery in direct sunlight or anywhere really

hot, like in a car on a summer’s day. That could make it leak
or overheat, while lowering its perfor mance a nd sho rtenin g its
life.

-18-

 Don’t charge the battery continuously for 24 hours.

Overcharging is not good for it.

Note: Please avoid contact with the materials inside a damaged
or leaking battery. If they get on y our ski n, w ash w ith lots of w ate r
and seek medical assistance if required.

-19-

Charger care and safety

 Only plug into voltages between 110VA C and 22 0VA C. U sing

a voltage outside that range can dam age the phone/c harger –
and cause the battery to leak or catch fire.

 Never short-circuit the charg er – this may cause electrocution,

overheating or damage.

 Don’t charge the phone in direct sunlight or in an area where

it’s damp, dusty, or on a vibrating surface. And charging your
phone near – or on – a TV or radio could interfere with
transmission.

 Don’t use the charger if the power cable is damaged. It may

cause a fire or give someone an electric shock.

 Keep water well away from the charger. If the charger does

get splashed by water, or any other kind of l iquid, immedi ately
unplug it to avoid overheating, fire or electrocution.

 Don’t take the charger apart. It could cause injury, give you

an electric shock or catch fire.

 Never touch any charger, electric cable or socket with wet

hands.

 Don’t place heavy objects on the electric cable.
 If the cable is damaged, don’t try to mend it y our self – it could

cause a fire or electrocute you.

 Always unplug the charger before you clean it.
 When unplugging the charger, hold the plug itself, rather than

pulling on the cable. A damaged cable can cause
electrocution or fire.

Health and safety

4RF exposure information (SAR)
This mobile phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to

radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits

for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.

The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC,
described in this user guide, is

Band Position SAR (W/Kg)

CDMA2000

BC0

(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements.)

*

Tests for SAR are conducted using

Head 0.707
Body 0.673

-21-

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the
handset kept 1.5cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF
exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain a 1.5cm separation
distance between the user's body and the back of the handset. The use of
belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic
components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy
these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements,
and should be avoided.

This device is compliance with SAR for general population /uncontrolled
exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and had been tested in
accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in
OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference
caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. Such
modifications could void the FCC authorization to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.
