1. Safe Use Practices
Becoming familiar with the following practices minimizes
the risk of using the phone improperly.
·Do not use the phone within an area where it is
forbidden, e.g.. gas stations or hospitals. Using the
phone in such places could endanger others. Do not
switch the phone on if it may result in interference in
operation of other devices!
·Do not use the phone without an appropriate set while
driving.
·Do not use the phone in hospitals, airplanes, gas
stations, and near flammable materials.
·This mobile phone emits electromagnetic field that
may adversely impact other electronic equipment,
including e.g.. medical equipment. Keep the distance
recommended by the manufacturers of medical care
equipment between the phone and implanted medical
devices, such as e.g. pacemakers. People with
implanted medical devices should know guidelines of
the device's manufacturer and follow these
instructions. People having a pacemaker should not
bear the phone in a pocket on the chest, they should
keep the phone at the ear on the side of the body
opposite to the medical device in order to minimize
any risk of interferences, and switch the phone off
immediately upon suspicion of any interference;
