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 15 mm 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.

12

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 organization

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 0.576 W/kg*, and when worn on the

13

body, as described in this user guide, is 0.763 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**.

As SAR is measured utilizing 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 EN50360,

EN 62311, EN 62209-1 and EN 62209-2.

** 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.

14

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).

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.

15

National Restrictions on Wi-Fi Usage

2400.0-2483.5 MHz

Country Restrictions Reason/remark

Bulgaria General authorization

required for outdoor use

and public service

France Please don't

use WIFI

function

outdoors

Military Radiolocation use.

Refarming of the 2.4 GHz

band has been ongoing in

recent years to allow

current relaxed regulation.

Full implementation

Italy If used outside of own

premises, general

authorization is required.

Luxembourg None General authorization

required for network and

service supply (not for

spectrum).

Norway Implemented This subsection does not

apply for the geographical

area within a radius of 20

km from the centre of

Ny-Ålesund.

16

Russian

Federation

Only for indoor

applications.

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.

17

• 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.

18

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.

Main antenna

GPS antenna

Bluetooth and

Wi-Fi antenna

19

Normal Use Position

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone to

your ear, with the bottom towards your mouth.

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.

Antenna

20

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.
