The advice above applies to the unit, battery, charger and other accessories. If the telephone is not working as it should, please contact the place where you purchased the unit to inquire about service. Be sure to have the receipt or a copy of the invoice on hand.

English

Additional safety information

The unit and the accessories can contain small parts. Keep all of the equipment out of the reach of small children.

Operating environment

Follow the rules and laws that apply wherever you are, and always turn off the unit whenever its use is prohibited or can cause interference or hazards. Only use the unit in its normal user position.

This unit complies with guidelines for radiation when it is used either in a normal position against your ear, or when it is at least 2.2 cm (7/8 inch) from your body. If the unit is carried close to your body in a case, belt holder or other holder, these holders should not contain any metal, and the product should be placed at the distance from your body specified above. Make sure that the distance instructions above are followed until the transfer is complete.

Parts of the unit are magnetic. The unit can attract metal objects. Do not keep credit cards or other magnetic media near the unit. There is a risk that information stored on them can be erased.

Medical units

The use of equipment that transmits radio signals, for example, mobile phones, can interfere with insufficiently protected medical equipment. Consult a doctor or the manufacturer of the equipment to determine if it has adequate protection against external radio signals, or if you have any questions. If notices have been put up at health care facilities instructing you to turn off the unit while you are there, you should comply. Hospitals and other health care facilities sometimes use equipment that can be sensitive to external radio signals.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers:

• Should always keep the HandlePlus 326i gsm more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is turned on
• Should not carry the HandlePlus 326i gsm in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the HandlePlus 326i gsm off immediately.

Areas with explosion risk

Always turn off the unit when you are in an area where there is a risk of explosion. Follow all signs and instructions. There is a risk of explosion in places that include areas where you are normally requested to turn off your car engine. In these areas, sparks can cause explosion or fire which can lead to personal injury or even death.

Turn off the unit at filling stations, and any other place that has gas pumps and auto repair facilities.

Follow the restrictions that apply to the use of radio equipment near places where fuel is stored and sold, chemical factories and places where blasting is in progress.

Areas with risk for explosion are often – but not always – clearly marked. This also applies to below decks on ships; the transport or storage of chemicals; vehicles that use liquid fuel (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powder.

Emergency calls

Important!

Mobile phones such as this unit use radio signals, the mobile phone network, the terrestrial network and user-programmed functions. This means that connection cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances. Therefore, you should never rely solely on a mobile phone for very important calls such as medical emergencies.

Vehicles

Radio signals can affect electronic systems in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel injection, ABS brakes, automatic cruise control, air bag systems) that have been incorrectly installed or are inadequately protected. Contact the manufacturer or its representative for more information about your vehicle or any additional equipment.

Do not keep or transport flammable liquids, gases or explosives together with the unit or its accessories. For vehicles equipped with air bags: Remember that air bags fill with air with considerable force.

Do not place objects, including fixed or portable radio equipment in the area above the airbag or the area where it might expand. Serious injuries may be caused if the mobile phone equipment is incorrectly installed and the airbag fills with air.

It is prohibited to use the unit while in flight. Turn off the unit before you board a plane. Using wireless telecom units inside a plane can pose risks to air safety and interfere with telecommunications. It may also be illegal.

Driving Safely

Use of this unit alone or with headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices like this unit in the areas where you drive. Be careful and attentive while driving. If you decide to use this unit while driving or riding a bicycle, keep in mind the following guidelines:

- Give full attention to driving and to the road.

Using a mobile device while driving may be distracting. If you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle, riding a bicycle, or performing any activity that requires your full attention, pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions require.

- Get to know your phone and its features such as phone book, call memory, and speakerphone.

These features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road. See the applicable portion of this user's guide for more information.

- Use a hands-free device.

Add an extra layer of convenience and safety to your unit with one of the many hands-free accessories available.

- Use of a headset or other hands-free device may be legally required.

Several states have in recent years passed laws making it unlawful to operate a motor vehicle while talking on a wireless phone without use of a headset, speakerphone, or other hands-free device. County and municipal ordinances may also limit or ban wireless conversations for automobile drivers. You should therefore check the status of such laws in your area and in locations to which you travel by car, whether or not you otherwise follow the preferred safety practice of routinely using a hands-free device.

For SMS text messaging, it is a recommended safety practice that you never send or view received text messages while driving; in California, and likely other states in the future, SMS messaging by a driver is also a legal violation.

• Position phone within easy reach.

Keep your eyes on the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voicemail answer it for you.

• Assess the traffic before dialing, or place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.

Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. Never dial, send SMS text messages, or enter other text while you are driving.

• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving.

If necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Driving in rain, sleet, snow, ice, fog, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.

• Do not take notes, look up phone numbers, or perform any other activities that require your attention while driving. Jotting down a to-do list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.

Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

THIS WIRELESS DEVICE MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your unit contains radio transmitters and receivers. When on, your phone receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy through its antenna. Your unit is designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to RF energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The exposure standard employs a unit of measurement known as the specific absorption rate, or SAR. The SAR limit applicable to the HandlePlus 326i gsm set by the FCC is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg) . Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions (i.e., at the ear and worn on the body) specified by the FCC, with the HandlePlus 326i gsm transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the HandlePlus 326i gsm while in operation can be well below the maximum value because the HandlePlus 326i gsm adjusts its cellular transmitting power based in part on proximity to the wireless network. In general, the closer you are to a cellular base station, the lower the cellular transmitting power level. The HandlePlus 326i gsm has been tested, and meets, the FCC's RF exposure guidelines for cellular operation.

When tested for use at the ear, the HandlePlus 326i gsm highest SAR value is 0.69W / kg . When tested for body-worn operation, with the HandlePlus 326i gsm positioned 2.2cm (0.87 inch) from the body, the HandlePlus 326i gsm highest SAR value is 0.64W / kg . For body-worn operation, the HandlePlus 326i gsm's SAR measurement may exceed the FCC exposure guidelines if positioned less than 2.2cm (0.87 inch) from the body.

For optimal mobile device performance and to be sure that human exposure to RF energy does not exceed the FCC guidelines, always follow these instructions and precautions:

English

When on a call using the built-in audio receiver in the unit, hold the unit pointed down toward your shoulder to increase separation from the antenna. For body-worn operation, keep the HandlePlus 326i gsm at least 2.2cm (0.87 inch) away from the body, and only use carrying cases, belt clips, or holders that do not have metal parts and that maintain at least 2.2cm (0.87 inch) separation between HandlePlus 326i gsm and the body.

If you are still concerned about exposure to RF energy, you can further limit your exposure by limiting the amount of time using the HandlePlus 326i gsm, since time is a factor in how much exposure a person receives, and by placing more distance between your body and the unit, since exposure level drops off dramatically with distance.

Hearing Aid Compatibility

The Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 and FCC regulations promulgated under the Act provide minimum requirements for hearing aid compatibility for wireless GSM phones sold in the United States. FCC regulations require that beginning June 6, 2008, each handset manufacturer that distributes more than two models of cellular telephones in the United States must meet at least an "M3" rating (asset forth in set forth in American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard C63.19) for one third of the handsets that it offers to service providers per digital air interface. For inductive coupling, each handset manufacturer must offer to service providers at least two "T3"-rated handset models per digital air interface.

The HandlePlus 326i gsm is not hearing aid compatible under the ANSI standard or FCC regulations and may cause interference with some hearing aid equipment. Doro AB, manufacturer of this unit, is exempt from the FCC's hearing aid compatibility regulations at this time.

Using the Doro HearPlus eh346m EarHook can eliminate this for hearing aids with a "T" position. If any other interference occurs, please contact your operator.
