SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
•
•
•
•
Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame
of a building).
Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as
microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do
not contain any metal.
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your
local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this
device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or
call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its
normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the
interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are
advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to
come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified
antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of
performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as
result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
48 Quick Start Guide
To assure optimal phone performance
and ensure human exposure to RF
energy is within the guidelines set
forth in the relevant standards, always
use your device only in its normal-use
position. Contact with the antenna area
may impair call quality and cause your
device to operate at a higher power
level than needed. Avoiding contact
with the antenna area when the
Antenna
location
phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna
performance and the battery life.
