Safety Instructions
WARNING! To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not
expose your phone to high humidity areas, such as the bathroom,
swimming pool, etc.
Always store your phone away from heat. Never store your
phone in settings that may expose it to temperatures less than 32
°F or greater than 104 °F, such as outside during a snowstorm or
in your car on a hot day. Exposure to excessive cold or heat will
result in malfunction, damage and/or catastrophic failure.
Be careful when using your phone near other electronic
devices. RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect nearby
inadequately shielded electronic equipment. You should consult
with manufacturers of any personal medical devices such as
pacemakers and hearing aides to determine if they are susceptible
to interference from your mobile phone. Turn off your phone in a
medical facility or at a gas station. Never place your phone in a
microwave oven as this will cause the battery to explode.
IMPORTANT! Please read the TIA SAFETY INFORMATION on
page 96 before using your phone.

FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING! Read this information before operating the phone. In
August 1996, the Federal Communications (FCC) of the United
States, with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an
updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously
set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and
these international standards.
CAUTION
Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of unauthorized
antennas or modifications could impair call quality, damage the
phone, void your warranty and/or result in violation of FCC
regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a
damaged antenna comes into contact with skin, a minor burn may
result. Contact your local dealer for a replacement of antenna.
