13Operating Instructions - Read Me First (English)
Additional safety precautions
Posted facilities
• Turn off the product when in hospitals, health care facilities, or
any facility where posted notices require you to do so.
Hospitals and health care facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Pacemakers
• Medical device manufacturers recommend a minimum
separation of 15 cm between a wireless device and an
implanted medical device, such as a pacemaker or implanted
cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential interference with the
medical device.
• Persons with pacemakers:
– Should ALWAYS keep this product more than 15 cm from
their pacemaker when this product is turned ON;
– Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference;
– Should not carry this product in a breast pocket;
– Should turn off the product immediately if there is any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing aids
• Some digital wireless products may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference, consult the
manufacturer of your hearing aid to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
• If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.

14
Aircraft
• Turn off the product after boarding an aircraft, when instructed
by flight staff. Obey instructions from flight staff regarding the
use of the product in flight. Using this product in an aircraft may
be hazardous to the aircraft’s operation and disrupt wireless
communication, and may also be illegal.
Potentially explosive atmosphere
• Turn off the product in areas where a potentially explosive
atmosphere exists and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury
or even death.
• Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere may include
fueling areas, chemical plants, below deck on boats, fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using petroleum
or natural gas, or areas where the atmosphere contains
particles such as grain, dust, or metallic powders, and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn off
your vehicle engine.
Electronic devices
• This product receives and transmits radio frequency signals
while switched on. Most electronic equipment is shielded from
RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from this product. Therefore,
the use must be restricted in certain situations to avoid
interference.
Driving
• Give full attention to driving. Driving safely is your first
responsibility.
• Pull off the road and park before placing or answering a call. It
is unsafe to operate the product while driving.
• Check the laws and regulations in the areas where you drive,
and always obey them.

15Operating Instructions - Read Me First (English)
• Only qualified personnel should install the product in a vehicle.
Check regularly that the product is securely mounted in your
vehicle and operating properly.
• Do not place or install the product in the area over the air bag
or in the air bag deployment area. If the air bag inflates, serious
injury and/or damage could result.
• RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Consult the
manufacturer (or its representative) of the vehicle and any
equipment that has been added to the vehicle regarding the
use of mobile products.
• Use hands-free operation, if available and legally permitted.
Emergency communications
• Never rely solely on a mobile product for essential or
emergency communications. Network connections can be
affected by remaining battery level, radio signals, service
networks, and other conditions, and as a result, emergency
communications cannot be guaranteed in all conditions.
Antenna
• Do not replace the antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the product and
may violate regulations.
• Do not touch or cover the antenna area while the product is on.
Call quality, power levels, and the overall performance of the
product may be affected.
Volume
• Do not turn the volume up too loud when using headphones
and earphones.
• Exposure to excessive sound pressure levels for
extended periods may cause hearing damage.

16
• Being unable to hear sounds in your environment may lead to
accidents.
AC adaptor
• The AC adaptor is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure
that the AC outlet is installed near the product and is easily
accessible.

For Europe
SAR (Specific Absorption Rates)
This product is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it
receives and transmits RF energy. When you are on a phone call,
the system handling your call controls the power level at which
the product transmits. This product is designed not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international
guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent
scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is
2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this product when tested at
the ear is 0.625 W/kg*1.
For body-worn operation, this product has been tested and meets
RF exposure guidelines when used with a Panasonic accessory
designated for this product and when used with an accessory that

20
contains no metal and that positions the mobile device a
minimum of 5 mm from the body.
In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 1.000 W/kg. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance with RF exposure
guidelines. As SAR is measured utilizing the product's highest
transmitting power the actual SAR of this product while operating
is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic
changes to the power level of the product to ensure it only uses
the minimum level required to reach the network.
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special
precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you
want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the
length of calls or using a hands-free device to keep the mobile
device away from the head and body.
*1 The tests are carried out in accordance with international
guidelines for testing.
Wi-Fi use
Operation of the device in the 5 GHz frequency band is restricted
to indoor use only in the following countries.
