For Your Safety
General Safety
Don’t make or receive
handheld calls while
driving. And never text
while driving.
Don’t use at petrol
stations.
Keep your phone at
least 15mm away from
your ear or body while
making calls.
Your phone may
produce a bright or
flashing light.
Small parts may cause
a choking.
Don’t dispose of your
phone in fire.
Your phone can
produce a loud sound.
Avoid contact with
anything magnetic.
Keep away from
pacemakers and other
electronic medical
devices.
Avoid extreme
temperatures.
Switch off when asked
to in hospitals and
medical facilities.
Avoid contact with
liquids. Keep your phone
dry.
Switch off when told to
in aircrafts and airports.
Don’t take your phone
apart.
13
Switch off when near
explosive materials or
liquids.
Only use approved
accessories.
Don’t rely on your phone for emergency communications.
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.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines
were developed by the independent scientific organisation
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the
protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is
2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested
at the ear was 1.35 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a range
of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on
the body as described in this user guide**.
14
As SAR is measured utilising the device's highest transmitting
power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is
typically below that indicated above. This is due to
automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it
only uses the minimum power required to communicate with
the network.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC 62209-2:
2010, EN 62209-1:2006.
** Please see body worn operation.
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 Organisation (WHO) provides the
following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does
not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use
15
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).
Regulatory Information
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions
as noted.
Please find the section Declaration of RoHS Compliance and
CE DOC in the end of this manual.
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.
16
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 authorised personnel can do so.
• Do not expose your phone or its accessories to extreme
temperatures, minimum - [5] and maximum + [50] degrees
Celsius.
17
• 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.
Demagnetisation
To avoid the risk of demagnetisation, 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.
18
Antenna
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
Normal Use Position

your ear, with the bottom towards your mouth.
GPS antenna
Bluetooth antenna
Antenna
19
Air Bags
Do not place a phone in the area over an air bag or in the air
bag deployment area.
Store the phone safely before driving your vehicle.
Seizures/ Blackouts
The phone can produce a bright or flashing light.
Repetitive Motion Injuries
To minimise the risk of 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 minimise
the times of pressing buttons, such as Message Templates
and Predictive Text.
• Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax.
20
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.
