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
• Using a headset at high volumes may damage your
hearing. To reduce this risk, lower the headset
volume to a safe and comfortable level.

12
• Exposure to high volumes while driving may cause
distraction and increase your risk of an accident.
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.
• Concentrate on driving. Your first responsibility is to
drive safely.
• Do not hold the device while driving. Use hands-free
accessories.

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 force when the
air bag inflates.

13
• Do not use your device while flying in an aircraft or
immediately before boarding. Using wireless devices
in an aircraft may disrupt wireless networks, present
a hazard to aircraft operation, or be illegal.
Operating environment
• Avoid dusty, damp, or dirty environments. Avoid
magnetic fields. Using the device in these
environments may result in circuit malfunctions.
• Do not use your device during thunderstorms to
protect your device against any danger caused by
lightning.
• Ideal operating temperatures are 0°C to 35 °C. Ideal
storage temperatures are -20 °C to 70 °C. Extreme

the earpiece or speaker. The earpiece may attract
these objects and result in injury.

the device is overheated. If skin is exposed to an
overheated device for an extended period, low

with adult supervision.
Accessories
• Using an unapproved or incompatible power
adapter, charger or battery may cause fire, explosion
or other hazards.

dangerous. Please contact your retailer for
information about the availability of approved
accessories in your area.
Charger safety
• For pluggable devices, the socket-outlet shall be
installed near the devices and shall be easily
accessible.
• Unplug the charger from electrical outlets and the
device when not in use.
• Do not drop or cause an impact to the charger.

it at once. Continued use may lead to electric shocks,
short circuits, or fire.
• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands or pull
the power cord to disconnect the charger.
• Do not touch the device or the charger with wet
hands. Doing so may lead to short circuits,
malfunctions, or electric shocks.
• If your charger has been exposed to water, other
liquids, or excessive moisture, take it to an
authorized service center for inspection.
• Ensure that the charger meets the requirements of
Clause 2.5 in IEC60950-1/EN60950-1/UL60950-1
and has been tested and approved according to
national or local standards.

16
• Connect the device only to products with the USB-IF
logo or with USB-IF compliance program
completion.
Battery safety
• Do not connect battery poles with conductors, such
as keys, jewelry, or other metal materials. Doing so
may short-circuit the battery and cause injuries or
burns.
• Keep the battery away from excessive heat and
direct sunlight. Do not place it on or in heating
devices, such as microwave ovens, stoves, or
radiators. Batteries may explode if overheated.
• Do not attempt to modify or remanufacture the
battery, insert foreign objects into it, or immerse or
expose it to water or other liquids. Doing so may lead

• If the battery leaks, ensure that the electrolyte does
not make direct contact with your skins or eyes. If
the electrolyte touches your skins or splashes into
your eyes, immediately flush with clean water and
consult a doctor.
• In case of battery deformation, color change, or
overheating while charging or storing, immediately
stop using the device and replace the battery.
Continued use may lead to battery leakage, fire, or
explosion.
• Do not put batteries in fire as they may explode.
Damaged batteries may also explode.

Use a clean, soft, and dry cloth to clean the device
and accessories.
• Do not place magnetic stripe cards, such as credit
cards and phone cards, near the device for extended
periods of time. Otherwise the magnetic stripe cards
may be damaged.
• Do not dismantle or remanufacture the device and its
accessories. This voids the warranty and releases the
manufacturer from liability for damage. In case of
damage, contact an authorized service center for
assistance or repair.
