Emergency calls
Important!
Mobile phones 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, never rely
only 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ammableliquids,gasesor
explosivestogetherwiththeunitoritsaccessories.

12. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your unit is a technically advanced product and should
be treated with the greatest care. Negligence may void
the warranty.
• Protect the unit from moisture. Rain/snowfall, moisture
and all types of liquid can contain substances that corrode
the electronic circuits. If the unit gets wet, you should
remove the battery and allow the unit to dry completely
before you replace it.
• Do not use or keep the unit in dusty, dirty environments.
The unit’s moving parts and electronic components can
be damaged.
• Do not keep the unit in warm places. High temperatures
can reduce the lifespan for electronic equipment, damage
batteries and distort or melt certain plastics.
• Do not keep the unit in cold places. When the unit warms
up to normal temperature, condensation can form on the
inside which can damage the electronic circuits.
• Do not try to open the unit in any other way than that
which is indicated here.
• Do not drop the unit. Do not knock or shake it either. If it is
treated roughly the circuits and precision mechanics can
be broken.
• Do not use strong chemicals to clean the unit.
The advice above applies to the unit, battery, mains
adapter and other accessories. If the phone is not
working as it should, please contact the place of
purchase for service. Don’t forget the receipt or a copy of
the invoice.

from the date of purchase. In the unlikely event of a fault
occurring during this period, please contact the place of

support needed during the guarantee period.
This guarantee will not apply to a fault caused by an
accident or a similar incident or damage, liquid ingress,
negligence, abnormal usage, non-maintenance or any
other circumstances on the user’s part. Furthermore, this
guarantee will not apply to any fault caused by a thun-
derstormoranyothervoltageuctuations.Asamatter
