Safety information
This section contains important information about the operation of your
device. It also contains information about how to use the device safely.
Read this information carefully before using your device.
Electronic device
Do not use your device if using the device is prohibited. Do not use the
device if doing so causes danger or interference with other electronic
devices.
Interference with medical equipment
•
Follow rules and regulations set forth by hospitals and health care
facilities. Do not use your device where prohibited.
•
Some wireless devices may affect the performance of hearing aids or
pacemakers. Consult your service provider for more information.
•
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of
15 cm be maintained between a device and a pacemaker to prevent
potential interference with the pacemaker. If using a pacemaker, hold
the device on the side opposite the pacemaker and do not carry the
device in your front pocket.
Protecting your hearing when using a headset
•
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high
volume levels for long periods.
•
Using a headset at high volumes may damage your hearing. To reduce
this risk, lower the headset volume to a safe and comfortable level.
•
Exposure to high volumes while driving may cause distraction and
increase your risk of an accident.

5
Areas with flammables and explosives
•
Do not use the device where flammables or explosives are stored (in a
gas station, oil depot, or chemical plant, for example). Using your
device in these environments increases the risk of explosion or fire. In
addition, follow the instructions indicated in text or symbols.
•
Do not store or transport the device in containers with flammable
liquids, gases, or explosives.
Traffic security
•
Observe local laws and regulations while using the device. To reduce
the risk of accidents, do not use your wireless device while driving.

•
Do not hold the device while driving. Use hands-free accessories.
•
When you must make or answer a call, pull off the road safely and park
the vehicle first.
•
RF signals may affect the electronic systems of motor vehicles. For more
information, consult the vehicle manufacturer.
•
Do not place the device over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area in a motor vehicle. Doing so may hurt you because of the strong

EU regulatory conformance
Body worn operation
The device complies with RF specifications when used near your ear or at
a distance of 1.5 cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories,
such as a device case and device holster, are not composed of metal
components. Keep the device away from your body to meet the distance
requirement.
Certification information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As
recommended by international guidelines, the device is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves. These guidelines were
developed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP), an independent scientific organization, and include
safety measures designed to ensure the safety of all users, regardless of
age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the
amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a
device. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in
laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level during operation can be
well below the value. This is because the device is designed to use the
minimum power required to reach the network.
The SAR limit adopted by Europe is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of
tissue, and the highest SAR value for this device complies with this limit.
