For Your Safety

General Safety

Don’t make or receive handheld calls while driving. And never text while driving.

Keep your phone at least 15 mm away from your ear or body while making calls.

Small parts may cause a choking.

Your phone can produce a loud sound.

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 aircrafts and airports.

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.

Avoid extreme temperatures.

Avoid contact with liquids. Keep your phone dry.

Don’t take your phone apart.

Switch off when near explosive materials or liquids.

Don’t rely on your phone for emergency communications.

Only use approved accessories.

Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure

General Statement on RF Energy

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.

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.

Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Fields

For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides the following advice:

Precautionary measures: 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.

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).

Distraction

Driving

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.

Operating Machinery

Full attention must be given to operating the machinery in order to reduce the risk of an accident.

Product Handling

General Statement on Handling and Use

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.

• 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.

Small Children

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.

Demagnetization

To avoid the risk of demagnetization, do not allow electronic devices or magnetic media close to your phone for a long time.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

Do not touch the SIM card’s metal connectors.

Antenna

Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.

Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS antenna

Antenna

Normal Use Position

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone to your ear, with the bottom towards your mouth.

Antenna

Air Bags

Do not place a phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area as an airbag inflates with great force and serious injury could result.

Store the phone safely before driving your vehicle.

Seizures/Blackouts

The phone can produce a bright or flashing light. A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games or watching video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history of such occurrences, please consult a physician.

Repetitive Strain Injuries

To minimize the risk of Repetitive Strain Injury (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.

• Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax.

Emergency Calls

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.

Loud Noise

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.

Phone Heating

Your phone may become warm during charging and during normal use.

Electrical Safety

Accessories

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 in the battery terminals.

Connection to a Car

Seek professional advice when connecting a phone interface to the vehicle electrical system.

Faulty and Damaged Products

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.

Radio Frequency Interference

General Statement on Interference

Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.

Pacemakers

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.

Hearing Aids

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.

Medical Devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.

Hospitals

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.

Aircraft

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 must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.

Interference in Cars

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.

Explosive Environments

Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres

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.

Blasting Caps and Areas

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.
