1. Safety Guidelines
Reading these guidelines presented below will
minimize the risk of misusing the phone.
•Do not use the phone in areas where it is
prohibited, e.g. petrol stations or hospitals.
Using the phone in such places can expose
others to danger. Do not switch the phone on if it
may cause interference with other devices!
•You mustn’t use your phone without hands-free
accessories while driving.
•You mustn’t use your phone in hospitals,
airplanes, refueling points or in proximity to
flammable materials.
•The telephone emits electromagnetic field that
might negatively interfere with other electronic
devices including medical equipment. A safe
distance between a telephone and implanted
medical devices such as a heart pacemaker
should be maintained as recommended by
manufacturers of medical equipment. Users with
implanted devices should read and follow the
instructions by manufacturers of implanted
medical devices. Users with a heart pacemaker
should not carry a telephone in their front chest
pockets and they should hold the telephone next
to the ear opposite to the medical device in
order to minimize the risk of interference;
•The device and its accessories might contain
small parts. Keep the phone and its components
out of the reach of children.

9
•Never repair or try to modify your phone by your
own. Any faults should be repired by a qualified
service.
•Use only original batteries and chargers. Use of
any unauthorized accessories could damage
your phone or might cause an explosion.
•WATER AND DUST PROTECTION - the phone
is IP68-rated, i.e., resistant to dust ingress and
continuous immersion to a maximum depth of 1.5
metres. If the phone is immersed deeper, it may
be damaged! The phone can be used in the rain.
For IP68 protection to be maintained, care must be
taken to ensure that all rubber seals are correctly
installed and undamaged (no gaps of any kind). The
loudspeaker diaphragm must not be damaged (e.g.
punctured with a sharp instrument) and must be free
of any kind of impurities (e.g. metal filings). The
case should not have any mechanical damage (e.g.
cracks) on it. In the event that the device is found to
be improperly operated, all claims for water and dust
protection will be rejected.
2. Installation of components
Insert SIM card prior to switching on your phone.
Careful attention must be paid not to damage the
card and SIM slots during insertion.
SIM cards should be kept away from children.

2.1 SIM card and battery installation
Make sure the phone is switched off before inserting
the SIM card. The charger should be disconnected.
To insert the SIM card, first remove the battery (if
inserted) as shown and described.
•When your phone is switched off, turn the
phone face down, then use a screwdriver to
unscrew the 2 screws and gently pull off the
battery cover by levering it upwards.
