4 Safety use
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully
before using your device. The manufacturer
disclaims any liability for damage, which may result
as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to
the instructions contained herein.
Traffic Safety
Given that studies show that using a mobile device
while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even
when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...),
drivers are requested to refrain from using their
mobile when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your device and
headdevice to listen to music or to the radio. Using
a headdevice can be dangerous and forbidden in
some areas.
When switched on, your device emits
electromagnetic waves that can interfere with
the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS anti-
lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no
problem:
• Do not place your device on top of the dashboard
or within an airbag deployment area,
• Check with your car dealer or the car
manufacturer to make sure that the dashboard
is adequately shielded from mobile device RF
energy.

16
Conditions of Use
You are advised to switch off the device from time
to time to optimize its performance.
Switch the device off before boarding an aircraft.
Switch the device off when you are in healthcare
facilities, except in designated areas. As with many
other types of equipment now in regular use,
mobile devices can interfere with other electrical
or electronic devices, or equipment using radio
frequencies.
Switch the device off when you are near gas or
flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and
instructions posted in a fuel depot, petrol station,
or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive
atmosphere.
When the device is switched on, it should be kept
at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a
pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump, etc.
Do not let children use the device and/or play with
the device and accessories without supervision.
When replacing the cover please note that your
device may contain substances that could create an
allergic reaction.
Always handle your device with care and keep it in a
clean and dust free place.
Do not allow your device to be exposed to adverse
weather or environmental conditions (moisture,
humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air,

17
etc). The manufacturer’s recommended operating
temperature range is -20°C to +60°C, humidity 20%-
90%.
At over 60°C the legibility of the device’s display
may be impaired, though this is temporary and not
serious.
Emergency call numbers may not be reachable on
all cellular networks. You should never rely only on
your device for emergency calls.
Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair your
mobile device yourself.
Do not drop, throw or bend your mobile device.
Do not use the device if the glass made screen, is

which are recommended with your device model.
Remember to make back-up copies or keep a
written record of all important information stored in
your device.
Some people may suffer epileptic seizures or
blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, or when
playing video games. These seizures or blackouts
may occur even if a person never had a previous
seizure or blackout. If you have experienced seizures
or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, please consult your doctor before
playing video games on your device or enabling a

18
flashing-lights feature on your device.
Parents should monitor their children’s use of
video games or other features that incorporate
flashing lights on the devices. All persons should
discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the
following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or
muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary
movements, or disorientation. To limit the likelihood
of such symptoms, please take the following safety
precautions:
• Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you
are tired or need sleep.
• Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
