Safety Precautions
Read these simple guidelines. Failure to comply
with them may be dangerous or illegal. For more
detailed safety information, see “Reference
Information” on page 140.
Road safety comes first
Do not use a hand-held mobile phone while
driving; park the vehicle first. Remember that in
some countries, it is illegal to use a mobile
phone while driving.
Switch off when refueling
Do not use the phone at a refueling point
(service station) or near fuels or chemicals.
Switch off on aircraft
Mobile phones can cause interference. Using
them on aircraft is both illegal and dangerous.
Switch off in hospital
Follow any regulations or rules. Switch phone off
near medical equipment.
Respect special regulations
Follow any special regulations in force in any
area and always switch off your phone whenever
it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause
interference or danger (in a hospital for
example).
Interference
All wireless phones may be subject to radio
interference, which may affect their performance.
Use qualified service
Only qualified service personnel must repair
equipment.

98
Safety Precautions
Use sensibly
Use only in the normal position (to the ear).
Accessories and batteries
Use only approved accessories and batteries.
Radio frequency exposure information
In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. adopted an
updated safety standard for human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted
by FCC regulated transmitters. These guidelines
are consistent with the safety standard
previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of this phone
complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body,
use the supplied or approved carrying case,
holster, or other body-worn accessory.
Use of non-approved accessories may violate
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
*The shape of the plug varies according to each country’s
specification.
