Efficient phone operation Electronic devices

All mobile phones may receive interference, which could affect performance.

  • Do not use your mobile phone near medical equipment without requesting permission. Avoid placing the phone over pacemakers, for example, in your breast pocket.
  • Some hearing aids might be disturbed by mobile phones.
    Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs, etc.
  • Do not use your device for a long period of time with any part of your body in direct contact with it. During normal operation, the temperature of the product may increase, which may cause your skin to be harmed or burnt.

Road safety

Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile phones in the area when you drive.

  • Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.
  • Give full attention to driving.
  • Use a hands-free kit, if available.
  • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions require you to do so.
  • RF energy may affect some electronic systems in your vehicle such as car stereos and safety equipment.
  • If your vehicle is equipped with an air bag, do not obstruct with installed or portable wireless equipment. It can cause the air bag to fail or cause serious injury due to improper performance.
    If you are listening to music whilst out and about, please ensure that the volume

is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is of particular importance when near roads.

Avoid damage to your hearing

Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sounds for long periods of time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn the handset on or off close to your ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.

NOTE: Excessive sound pressure from earphones can cause hearing loss.

Glass Parts

Some parts of your mobile device are made of glass. This glass could break if your mobile device is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If the glass

Potentially explosive atmospheres

  • Do not use your phone at a refuelling point.
  • Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
  • Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the same compartment of your vehicle as your mobile phone or accessories.

Children

Keep the phone in a safe place out of the reach of small children. It includes small parts which may cause a choking hazard if detached.

Emergency calls

Emergency calls may not be available on all mobile networks. Therefore you should never depend solely on your phone for emergency calls. Check with your local service provider.
