Earphone, manufactured by HTC, Model RC
E151.
SAFETY IN AIRCRAFT
Due to the possible interference caused by this
product to an aircraft’s navigation system and
its communications network, using this device’s
phone function on board an airplane is against
the law in most countries. If you want to use this
device when on board an aircraft, remember

10
to turn off your phone by switching to Airplane
Mode.
ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel
depots, chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress, or in potentially
explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas,
fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, chemical
plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities, and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or
metal powders. Please be aware that sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere or where flammable materials exist,
the product should be turned off and the user
should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are
advised not to use the equipment at refueling
points such as service or gas stations, and are
reminded of the need to observe restrictions
on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots,
chemical plants, or where blasting operations are
in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly
marked. These include fueling areas, below deck
on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage

11
facilities, and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or
metal powders.
ROAD SAFETY
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted
to use telephony services with handheld
devices, except in the case of emergency. In
some countries, using hands-free devices as an
alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
Avoid using your phone near metal structures
(for example, the steel frame of a building).
Avoid using your phone near strong
electromagnetic sources, such as microwave
ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
Use only original manufacturer-approved
accessories, or accessories that do not contain
any metal.
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved
accessories may violate your local RF exposure
guidelines and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT
FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to
malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden
in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device,





12
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere
with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your
service provider, or call the customer service line
to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product
should be operated in its normal-use position
to ensure the radiative performance and safety
of the interference. As with other mobile radio
transmitting equipment, users are advised that
for satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended
that no part of the human body be allowed to
come too close to the antenna during operation
of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of
unauthorized or modified antennas may impair
call quality and damage the phone, causing loss
of performance and SAR levels exceeding the

13
recommended limits as well as result in non-
compliance with local regulatory requirements
in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and
ensure human exposure to RF energy is within
the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards,
always use your device only in its normal-use
position. Contact with the antenna area may
impair call quality and cause your device to
operate at a higher power level than needed.
Avoiding contact with the antenna area when
the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna
performance and the battery life.

14
General Precautions
Avoid applying excessive pressure to the
device
Do not apply excessive pressure on the screen

and only use your finger when interacting with
the touch screen. Cracked display screens due
to improper handling are not covered by the
warranty.
Device getting warm after prolonged use
When using your device for prolonged periods
of time, such as when you’re talking on the
phone, charging the battery or browsing the
web, the device may become warm. In most
cases, this condition is normal and therefore
should not be interpreted as a problem with
the device.
