Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices Studies have shown that there may be a potential interaction between mobile phones and normal pacemaker operation. The pacemaker industry recommends that people with pacemakers follow these guidelines to minimize any risk of interference with pacemaker operation: Always maintain a distance of 15 cm (6 inches) between the pacemaker and any mobile phone that is turned on. - If you think that interference may be occurring, turn off the phone immediately. - For other medical devices, consult with your physician or the manufacturer to determine if your mobile phone may interfere with the device, and to determine any precautions that you can take to avoid interference. Emergency Calls Important: This device operates using radio signals, wireless networks, landline networks, and

user-programmed functions. Connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential communications like medical emergencies. When making an emergency call, give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Your wireless device may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so. Avoid Repetitive Motion You may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body if you perform repetitive activities, such as typing or playing games, on the device. Take frequent breaks. If you have discomfort while or after using the device, stop using and see a physician.

Always prefer to use a handsfree earset when talking. You are reminded that the use of your mobile device is forbidden when driving your car. SAR Certification Information This mobile phone model meets the guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Your mobile phone 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 exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested

frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of this device at the ear is 0.798W/Kg. When using the earphone, reduce the volume to protect your ears.
