table.
•Use a damp or anti-static cloth to clean the handset. Do not use a dry cloth or electrostatically charged
cloth. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners as these could damage the case.
•Remember to recycle: the cardboard packing supplied with this handset is ideal for recycling.
•Remember to make backup copies of all important data on your handset.

Emergency Services and Safety Precautions PL-3
•Third party equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorised by NEC, may invalidate
the warranty of your cellphone and also adversely affect the phone’s safety/operation.
Aircraft safety
•Switch off your handset when inside or near aircraft. The use of handsets in aircraft is illegal, as it may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and it may disrupt the aircraft communication system. Failure to
observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of the offender’s handset service, or legal
action, or both.
•Do not use the handset on the ground without the permission of the ground staff.
General safety
•Observe "Turn off 2-way radio" signs, such as those near petrol stations, chemicals or explosives and
turn off handset/device.
•If you have a heart condition, be careful with the settings of call vibration or tone volume.
•Do not allow children to play with the handset, charger or batteries.
•Do not use the handset where blasting is in progress.
•The operation of some medical electronic devices, such as hearing aids and pacemakers, may be

improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Third party equipment
The use of third party equipment, cables or accessories, not made or authorised by NEC, may invalidate the
warranty of your handset and also adversely affect the handset’s operation. For example, use only the NEC
mains cable supplied with the AC charger.
Service
The handset, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. We recommend that your NEC
handset be serviced or repaired by an NEC authorised service centre. Please contact 3 or NEC for advice.
Efficient use
The handset has the internal antenna. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption, please
do not cover the internal antenna area with your hand. Covering the internal antenna affects call quality, may
cause the handset to operate at higher power level than needed, and may shorten talk and standby times.
Radio frequency energy
Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently receives and
transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The system that handles the call controls the power
level at which the handset transmits.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
The handset is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to RF energy set by national authorities and
international health agencies.* These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent
scientific organizations such as ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-ionizing Radiation Protection)
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations
in measurements.
