Lost Device
If your phone has been lost or stolen, notify your network service provider as soon as possible and ask for the SIM card to be disabled (network support is required). This can avoid economic

Follow any special regulations in force in any areas such as hospitals and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it or when it may cause interference or danger. Carefully
use your mobile phone near medical apparatuses, such as pacemakers, hearing aids and some other electronic medical devices, as it may cause interference to such apparatus.

The conversation quality of any mobile phone may be affected by radio interference. An antenna is built inside the mobile phone and located near the microphone. Do not touch the antenna
area during a conversation; this will cause conversation quality to deteriorate.
