Always store your phone away from heat.
Never
store your phone in settings that may expose it to
temperatures less than 32°F or greater than 104°F,

shielded electronic equipment. You should
consult with manufacturers of any personal
medical devices such as pacemakers and hearing
aides 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
this will cause the battery to explode.

Please read and observe the following
information for the safe and proper use of your
phone and to prevent any unanticipated damage.
Also, keep the user’s manual in an accessible
