fire.
• Store the battery in a place out of the
reach of children.
• Be careful so that children do not swallow
any parts of the phone, such as rubber
plugs (earpiece, parts that connect to the
phone, etc.). This could cause asphyxiation
or suffocation.
• Disconnect the plug and charger from
the outlet when the phone shows that the
battery has been fully charged, because it
may cause electric shock or fire hazard.

Information about the RF exposure from FCC
WARNING
!Read this information
before operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commission (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 international and U.S. standards.
The design of this phone complies with FCC
guidelines and these international standards.
Caution
Use only the supplied antenna. Use of
unauthorized antennas, or modifications,
could impair call quality, damage the phone,
void your warranty, or result in a violation of
FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged
antenna.
For your safety

13
A damaged antenna in contact with the
skin could cause a singe. Contact your local
dealer for an antenna replacement.
Body effects
This device was tested for typical body
operation, keeping a distance of 1 cm (0.39
inch) between the user's body and the back
