Safety Precautions
Switch off your device in any area with potential explosive atmosphere. Sparks arising out of radio frequency may cause fire or explosion.
Therefore switch off your device at refueling stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or places where blasting operation is in progress. Remember
to comply with legal requirements and local restrictions when using the device.
Your device’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 device 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.
Do not place the device near electromagnetic data carriers such as credit/Debit cards. Information stored on them could be lost.
Permanent damage to hearing may occur if you use earphones at high volume for prolonged periods. Set your volume to a safe level. 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.
The mains voltage (V) specified on the power supply unit must not be exceeded to prevent damage to the charging device. The power supply
must be plugged into an easily accessible AC power socket when charging the battery.
