possibility of electric shock, do

not expose your phone to high

humidity areas, such as the

bathroom, swimming pool, etc.

Always store your phone away

from heat. Never store your

phone in settings that may expose

it to temperatures less than -15°C

or greater than 50°C, such as

outside during a snowstorm or in

your car on a hot day. Exposure to

excessive cold or heat will result in

malfunction, damage and/or

catastrophic failure.

Use caution when using your

phone near other electronic

devices. RF emissions from your

mobile phone may affect nearby

inadequately shielded electronic

equipment. You should consult

with manufacturers of any

personal medical devices such as

pacemakers and hearing aids to

determine if they are susceptible

to interference from your mobile

phone. Turn off your phone in a

medical facility or at a gas station.

Never place your phone in a

microwave oven as it will cause

the battery to explode.
