explosion. Comply with legal requirements and local
restrictions.
Your phone’s radio waves may interfere with inadequately
shielded medical devices. Consult a physician or
manufacturer of the medical device to know whether they
are adequately shielded from external Radio Frequency.
Switch off your device when regulations require you to do
so.
Always keep the phone and accessories out of reach of small
children. Small parts such as the SIM card or micro SD card
can be dismantled and swallowed by small children.

Permanent damage to hearing may occur if you use
earphones at high volume for prolonged periods. If you
experience discomfort in your ears, reduce the volume or
discontinue the use of your earphones.
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend a minimum
distance of 15.3 cm (6 inches) between a wireless device
and an implanted medical device such as pacemaker or
cardioverter defibrillator to avoid issues arising out of radio
frequency interference.

device. The power supply must be plugged into an easily
accessible AC power socket when charging the battery.
