1.2. Proper use

Your appliance offers a number of options for usage:

• The device is intended for private use only and not for

industrial/commercial use.

Please note that we shall not be liable in cases of impro-

per use:

• Do not modify the device without our consent and do

not use any auxiliary equipment which we have not

approved or supplied.

• Use only spare parts and accessories which we have

supplied or approved.

• Heed all the information in these operating instruc-

tions, especially the safety information. Any other use

is deemed improper and can cause personal injury or

damage to the device.

• Do not use the device in extreme environmental con-

ditions.

1.3. Usage limitations

It is essential to turn off the telephone in the following si-

tuations:

• Before boarding an aircraft or before packing it in your

luggage. The use of radio devices in aircraft can have

dangerous effects on the flight controls and interrupt

radio contact and is thus prohibited.

• In hospitals, clinics or other health centres and in any

locations in the direct vicinity of medical devices.

• In all locations where there is a risk of explosion (e.g.

petrol stations; in dust-filled environments, e.g. where

there is metal dust).

• In locations where the use of radio-controlled devices

is prohibited, e.g. on construction sites or locations

where people are working with explosives.

• While driving a motor vehicle (if no hands-free car kit

is available).

1.4. Additional costs for Internet

and roaming usage

Significant volume-based data costs may apply when

using the mobile Internet. In order to limit these costs, we

recommend that you purchase a contract with an Inter-

net flat rate.

NOTE!

When the phone is used for the first

time, roaming is deactivated. Check

your mobile service tariff before

using the device and, if required,

switch off mobile data services un-

til you have activated a suitable In-

ternet flat rate.

2. Safety instructions

2.1. Making calls while driving

As making calls can reduce concentration le-

vels (while driving a car or riding a bicycle),

this may contribute to accidents occurring.

The following instructions should be

followed exactly.

It is an offence to hold a telephone in your

hand (or between your head and your

shoulder) to make a call while driving. It is

also illegal to write SMS, e-mail or use

other programs while driving. Failure to

comply will result in fines and in your name

being entered in the central traffic offenders

register.

The use of hands-free sets is allowed.

NOTE!

A wired headset is not a

hands-free set and may not be

used while driving.

WARNING!

Impairment to hearing!

Listening through earphones or

headphones at excessive volume

levels, as well as changes to the ba-

sic settings of the equaliser, drivers,

software or operating system gen-

erates excessive acoustic pressure

and can lead to loss of hearing.

 Before pressing play, set the volu-

me to the lowest setting.

 Start playback and increase the vol-

ume to a comfortable level.

12 of 71

• Hands-free systems should only be ins-

talled by suitably qualified professionals.

Incorrect installation or maintenance can

have hazardous consequences and may

also void your guarantees – also that of

the car. Irradiation of the car’s on-board

electronics can cause serious defects and

result in danger to life and limb for you

and others.

• Do not use the mailbox while driving. Do

not listen to your messages until you have

parked the car and switched the motor

off.

• If you accept a call via the hands-free set

while driving, keep the call as short as

possible. Concentrate on your driving. Try

to to find a parking area before making a

call.

• Please comply with all national regulati-

ons if you use your mobile while driving

abroad.

13 of 71

• If you need to call often while driving, you

should have a hands-free system installed

in your car. These systems have been spe-

cially developed for this purpose.

• Ensure that neither your telephone nor

the hands-free system can interfere with

the functionality of the safety equipment

in your car.

• For cars with airbags: Bear in mind that

the activation of the airbag involves the

release of a large amount of force. There-

fore, never install permanent telephone

equipment in the area above the airbag

or in the space occupied by the deployed

airbag.

• If telephone or accessories are incorrect-

ly installed this can lead to serious injury

when the airbag is activated.

CAUTION!

Ignoring this advice can lead to se-

rious injuries and/or property da-

mage. Non-compliance can lead to

severe penalties!

2.2. General

• Do not let children play with electrical ap-

pliances without supervision. Children are

not always aware of potential hazards.

• Keep packaging material such as plastic

film away from children. There is a risk of

suffocation if used improperly.

• Do not insert anything into the device

through the slots and openings. This

could result in an electrical short-cir-

cuit, an electric shock or even ignite a fire

which will damage the product.

• Avoid exposing the device to water dro-

plets or spray and do not place vases or

anything containing water on the device.

Liquids penetrating the device may im-

pair the electrical safety of the product.

• Operate the mains charging device only

on earthed power outlets with AC 100–

240V~, 60Hz. If you are not sure about

the power supply at the set-up location,

please ask your power supplier.

• The socket must be close to the device

and easy to access.

• Use only the supplied mains charger with

the supplied USB cable.

• For extra safety, we recommend using an

overvoltage protection device to prevent

the product from sustaining damage as a

result of power surges or lightning strikes.

16 of 71

• If you want to disconnect the device from

the mains, first pull the mains charger out

of the wall socket and then the plug on

the product. The mains charger or the de-

vice may be damaged if this process is

carried out in the reverse order. Always

take hold of the plug when disconnecting

the cable from the socket. Never pull on

the cable.

• Position the cable so that it cannot be

stepped on or tripped over.

• Do not place any objects on the cables to

avoid damaging them.

• Do not allow plug-in connections to

come under impact, e.g. from lateral

forces. This could cause internal and ex-

ternal damage to the product.

• Do not apply force when connecting

cables and plugs and make sure that con-

nectors are the right way round.

• Do not crush or bend the cable too far in

order to prevent short-circuit and cable

break.

17 of 71

• Maintain a distance of at least one metre

from sources of high-frequency and mag-

netic interference (TV sets, loudspeakers,

mobile phones, DECT telephones, etc.) in

order to avoid malfunctions and data loss.

• Do not connect any devices to the pro-

duct which do not meet the requirements

set out in the EN60950 standard “Informa-

tion Technology Equipment – Safety” or

the EN60065 standard “Audio, video and

similar electronic apparatus - Safety re-

quirements”.
