2 SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
When using your telephone, basic safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and injury, including
the following:
1. Switch off the phone in the vicinity of
chemical plants, gas stations and other
locations containing explosive objects.
2. When driving, if you have to make or receive
a call, please use a hands free calling device
(to be purchased separately) to improve
safety. Please park the car on the roadside for
communication except in case of emergency.
3. Switch off the phone when boarding an
airplane and do not switch the phone on

4
UK
during the flight, unless the airline specifically
allow it.
4. Be careful when using the mobile phone in the
vicinity of devices such as pacemakers, hearing
aids and other electro-medical equipment,
which may be affected by mobile phones.
5. Never attempt to disassemble the phone by
yourself.
6. Do not recharge the phone without battery
being installed.
7. Charge the phone in well-ventilated
environment and keep away from
inflammable and highly explosive elements.
8. Keep magnetic discs or credit cards away
from the phone to avoid demagnetisation.
9. Keep the phone dry. If soaking occurs, take
the battery out and contact the supplier.
10.Avoid using the phone in extreme
temperatures and never leave it exposed
to direct sunlight, high humidity or a dusty
environment.
11.Do not use liquid or anything wet with strong
detergents to clean the handset.
2.1 Medical units
The use of equipment that transmits radio
signals, e.g. mobile phones, can interfere with
insufficiently protected medical apparatus.
Consult a doctor or the manufacturer of the
apparatus to determine if it has adequate

5
UK
UK
protection against external radio signals, or if
you have any questions. Wherever there are
notices to forbid use of mobile phones, you
should comply. Hospitals and other health care
facilities sometimes use equipment that can be
sensitive to external radio signals.
2.2 Pacemaker
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend a distance
of at least 15 cm. between a mobile phone and
a pacemaker to avoid the risk of interference
with the pacemaker. These recommendations
are in accordance with independent research
and recommendations from Wireless Technology
Research. People with pacemakers should:
• not carry the unit in a breast pocket
• hold the unit against the ear on the opposite
side from the pacemaker to reduce the risk of
interference
If you suspect that there is a risk of interference,
turn off the unit and move it further away.
2.3 Areas with explosion risk
Always turn off the unit when you are in an area
where there is a risk of explosion and follow all signs
and instructions. An explosion risk exists in the
places that include areas where you are normally
requested to turn off your car engine. Within such
an area, sparks can cause explosions or fire which
can lead to personal injuries or even death.

6
UK
Turn off the unit at filling stations i.e. near petrol
pumps and garages. Follow the restrictions that are
in force on 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.
2.4 Emergency calls
Important!
Mobile phones use radio signals and the mobile
phone network. This means that connection in all
circumstances cannot be guaranteed.
Important Safety Instructions
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not
listen at high volume levels for long periods.
