ELECTRICAL SAFETY
This product is intended for use when supplied with power from the designated battery or power supply unit.
Other usage may be dangerous and will invalidate any approval given to this product.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER GROUNDING INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Connecting to an improperly grounded equipment can result in an electric shock to your device.
This product is equipped with a USB Cable for connecting with desk-top or notebook computer. Be sure your
computer is properly grounded (earthed) before connecting this product to the computer. The power supply
cord of a desktop or notebook computer has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet which is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR POWER SUPPLY UNIT
• Use the correct external power source
A product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the electrical ratings
label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult your authorized service provider
or local power company. For a product that operates from battery power or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions that are included with the product.
• Handle battery packs carefully
This product contains a Li-ion battery. There is a risk of re and burns if the battery pack is handled
improperly. Do not attempt to open or service the battery pack. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture,
short external contacts or circuits, dispose of in re or water, or expose a battery pack to temperatures
higher than 60˚C (140˚F).
WARNING: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. To reduce risk of fire or burns, do not
disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, expose to temperature above 60˚C (140˚F), or
dispose of in fire or water. Replace only with specified batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries
according to the local regulations or reference guide supplied with your product.
• Take extra precautions
• Keep the battery or device dry and away from water or any liquid as it may cause a short circuit.
• Keep metal objects away so they don’t come in contact with the battery or its connectors as it may
lead to short circuit during operation.
• Do not use a battery that appears damaged, deformed, or discolored, or the one that has any rust on
its casing, overheats, or emits a foul odor.
• Always keep the battery out of the reach of babies and small children, to avoid swallowing of the
battery. Consult the doctor immediately if the battery is swallowed.
• If the battery leaks:
• Do not allow the leaking uid to come in contact with skin or clothing. If already in contact, ush
the aected area immediately with clean water and seek medical advice.
• Do not allow the leaking uid to come in contact with eyes. If already in contact, DO NOT rub; rinse
with clean water immediately and seek medical advice.
• Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away from re as there is a danger of ignition or
explosion.
• Communicate the appropriate steps immediately in case a hazard occurs.

5
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR DIRECT SUNLIGHT
Keep this product away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not leave the product or
its battery inside a vehicle or in places where the temperature may exceed 60°C (140°F), such as on a car
dashboard, window sill, or behind a glass that is exposed to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for
extended periods of time. This may damage the product, overheat the battery, or pose a risk to the vehicle.
PREVENTION OF HEARING LOSS
CAUTION – Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or headphones are used at high volume for
prolonged periods of time.
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 to turn off the phone by
switching to Flight 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, 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 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 device near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
•Avoid using your device 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.

6
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it
is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn the 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 recommended limits as well as
result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.

Internal antenna
location
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. Do not touch
or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a
phone call. 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.
